The Crowning Room

>She works at a small-town bakery. Lives alone in a worn apartment building. And tries not to think about the strange feeling that something in her life has always been missing. Then a mysterious woman walks into the bakery and leaves behind an invitation sealed with a thorned crown. That night, a limousine arrives at her door. By dawn, her old life is gone. Taken to the isolated Bloodworth Estate, Cassie discovers a truth hidden from her since birth: she is Cassandra Bloodworth, the lost heir to an ancient vampire dynasty. But the Bloodworths are more than vampires. They are rulers of a dark kingdom built on blood, secrets, and power older than recorded history. Within the castle's walls, servants whisper of things moving through the corridors after midnight. Portraits seem to watch from the shadows. Locked doors conceal horrors never meant to be seen. And deep beneath the estate lies the Crowning Room-a forbidden chamber where every Bloodworth ruler has claimed the throne. As enemies close in and long-buried secrets begin to awaken, Cassie must decide whether to embrace the darkness flowing through her veins or fight the destiny waiting for her. Because something ancient has been watching. Something hungry. And it has been waiting centuries for the Bloodworth heir to come home. The throne is waiting.
