“He walked in wearing a long leather jacket dripping with rain. He was tall, easily six foot, and his jagged black hair was plastered to his angular, dark face. He looked like one of those Korean rock stars—his coat was covered in belts and chains, his hair had a streak of blue, and there were two silver rings in his bottom lip. Snakebites. He had a way of moving, a way of entering the place, that spoke of stardom too. It was a fine line between assured and cocky, but maybe that was just him overcompensating for not knowing anyone …”

A mysterious, handsome, altogether magical young man arrives in Mystic Falls, winning the attention of everyone … and, before long, the heart of Bonnie Bennett, the town’s most accomplished (and alluring) witch. But is his sudden appearance in Mystic Falls a coincidence, or is he after something more sinister? Bonnie knows how to look after herself and is ordinarily a shrewd judge of character. But she now finds herself oddly powerless and indecisive in the stranger’s presence. That’s what can happen when the heart keeps intercepting messages sent from the brain.

The Tristram Cycle is a dizzying, dazzling debut inspired by the bestselling, award-winning Vampire Diaries’ series.
