About this listen
The Hegemony is the ruling council of The Order, a society of vampires that has controlled world governments for centuries. Now, vampyr scientist Caroline Ludlow and her fledgling Avery Doyle have control of North America. But with that power come enemies working toward their downfall. When Caroline leaves to secure her position at the Hegemony’s summit meeting, Avery must protect their home and Caroline’s scientific discoveries from agents of a foreign power. If Avery can master his new-found powers and Caroline can determine which of her many enemies are trying to sabotage her efforts, they may survive. This emotionally-gripping paranormal thriller brings readers deeper into the world of The Hegemony, offering surprising revelations and shocking betrayals.

He knew it was a dumb stunt from the start. A midnight run through a cemetery to impress a couple of girls isn't the stuff of legend, but Alex Carlisle longs to escape the crushing mediocrity of life after high school. Then, he stumbles upon the ritual, the cultists, and two bound and bloodied women. Alex intervenes, and the ritual blows up in his face, leaving him bound to them both: Rachel and Lorelei, an angel and a succubus.

It turns out living nightmares almost never appreciate a good joke. Together with a succubus who insists on constantly saving his life, Gabe desperately tries to survive a new reality that suddenly features demons, legends, and a giant locust named Dale - all of whom pretty much hate his guts.
