Daphne Thorne is an indie author with a love for everything dark and spicy. She writes MM romance, mostly with vampires and a touch of horror, but has a soft spot for sweet stories as well. You could easily say her biggest inspiration has always been Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles, which ignited the need to start writing when she was just fourteen.
Besides her MMM vampire book series, Daphne is working on other projects at the moment (an MM erotic novella, and a sweet and heartfelt MM best-friends-to-lovers romance).
She lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with her boyfriend, 3 cats, and a sausage dog. Her hobbies include reading, playing video games, listening to music (mostly metalcore), and collecting books as well as merch from her favorite bands. For a long time, she put off her dream of being an author, but she’s now more than ready to get the words flowing and books coming out!
Deviate Me is an MMM vampire dark romance in an urban fantasy setting.
It is the first book in the Tangled in Blood Ties series.
Blurb
Killien
I’m in trouble. Since we were turned into vampires, I can’t stop feeling Damien’s allure. His presence seems to call for my most primal instincts, and it’s so damn hard to resist… The whole thing is a mess since our maker just took off without a warning, leaving us to fend for ourselves. At least our friend, Jacob, can guide us through it all. Well—he’s more than a friend for Damien, which I’m not very comfortable with. Especially because I shouldn’t be feeling any of this to begin with; Damien is my stepbrother.
Damien
I have a plan to finally get Killien to melt into my arms. Who cares that we’re stepbrothers? Now that I’m a bloodsucker, I don’t give a damn anymore. It didn’t stop me from falling for him years ago, anyway. There’s a little problem, though: Jacob. He’s definitely into me, and I can’t help but seduce him. I mean, he’s hot as hell. Old habits die hard, I guess. Living at the mercy of my own impulses is all I know. However, I do wonder if I can even win the game I’m playing.
