    The Complete BBW Ménage Dark Romance Serial 1-6 SAC 1 Talyn Phisher is a counselor in a world that has been turned on its ear by an unthinkable discovery: vampires roam among humans. If all this upheaval was not enough, Talyn's body is changing. Signs that something is seriously wrong plague her. Having been told she's barren and there's no hope—Talyn still longs for a family of her own, though the stories she hears from clients tell her happiness is a long shot. Talyn wants that shot. She yearns for a man who will put her first—for who she is. Until a stalker's pursuit threatens everything close to Talyn's heart. When Talyn feels her life is in imminent danger, she reaches out in desperation to the Final Enforcement, an elite, fringe group of the police who do more than take the law into their own hands.
