Paladin's Kiss | Hunter, Elizabeth

It's the vampire wedding of the century... and maybe the end of an empire. Invited to the marriage ceremony of two old friends, Carwyn ap Bryn and Brigid Connor venture south, ready to relax in the company of Marie-Hélène Charmont, the vampire queen of the Delta, and four hundred of her esteemed immortal guests. The upper echelons of vampire society have gathered in New Orleans, curious to witness the joining of Gavin Wallace, the immortal business mogul, to the human woman who captured his heart. But when Gavin asks Brigid and Carwyn to look into a mysterious man stalking his human employees, they're unprepared for the tangled web of deception they uncover. Tug on the wrong string and centuries-old alliances might fall apart. In a tenuously balanced society full of apex predators; even one slip can prove disastrous. Paladin's Kiss is a supernatural mystery in the Elemental Covenant series by Elizabeth Hunter, nine-time USA Today bestselling author of A Hidden Fire, the Irin Chronicles, and over forty other works of fantasy fiction.
