Brandon King was supposed to die in that parking lot.

Instead, he wakes beneath Tuscaloosa as something that should not exist.

After a late-night encounter with a vampire leaves him transformed, Brandon is pulled into a hidden society governed by ancient bloodlines, ruthless laws, and creatures who have spent centuries protecting their secrets. But Brandon is no ordinary newborn vampire. His blood carries abilities no one understands...and a connection to powers older than the monsters now watching his every move.

Some believe he may be the future of their kind.

Others believe he is a mistake that must be destroyed.

As Brandon struggles to control his hunger and uncover the truth about what he has become, one fear outweighs all the others: the life he built with his husband, Sloan, may be the one thing immortality cannot preserve. Their love has survived decades, but surviving eternity may demand a price neither of them is prepared to pay.

With an ancient enemy stirring, forbidden power awakening, and the laws of the supernatural world closing around him, Brandon must decide how far he is willing to go to protect the people he loves.

Because the first mistake was allowing Brandon to survive.

The next may be underestimating what he is becoming.

Royal Outcasts: The First Mistake is the first novel in an action-packed supernatural fantasy series about love, loyalty, found family, and the dangerous power of becoming something entirely new.
