I'll have to fight to prove my place here, to protect a system I'm not even sure I believe in anymore. Not everybody is happy to be ruled. And some will fight to be free. The only question is, I'm no longer sure of who I really am, or which side I'm fighting for. My new husband is hiding things from, and when he learns the truth about who I really am, I'm not sure even he has the power to save me. Luckily, once I embrace my newfound abilities, I might just be strong enough to save us both - as long as his father, the king, doesn't kill me first. Taste is a dystopian vampire romance.
