Envy
(2026)(The first book in the Sins of the Father series)
A novel by Amanda Holly and Ryleigh Sloan
Envy: A Sins of the Father Romantasy tale of fated mates, found family, vampires and witches.
One prophecy. Seven sins. And a love that wasn’t part of the plan.
Xavian
The night my parents died, I learned three things: the father I thought dead was very much alive, my body is the vessel for one of the seven deadly sins, and there are six more like me, brothers I've never met, each of them vessels for the remaining six.
My father is a vampire, my mother a witch, and I’ve been labeled a mongrel my entire life. Envy is the sin I guard.
It’s imperative I find my brothers because a dark magic wants the sins for itself. And if that’s not enough, the fated mate my ancestors chose for me—someone I’ll spend eternity with—rips into my life like a tornado.
I don't need a mate. Never have, never will, and there are more important matters at hand, like the fate of the world should the seven deadly sins fall into the wrong hands. Yet, when destiny throws us together, there’s no doubt. She’s mine, and I will fight for her with my dying breath.
Celeste
I've known since adolescence my future belonged to a vampire count with a title longer than his patience.
The prophecy was simple. See him through his transformation, become his fated mate, and do what needs to be done to re-balance the world by his side.
It goes against everything I planned for my life, and I despise the very notion of him. I didn't plan on feeling sorry for the blood sucking vampire when his bones snapped and knitted back together during his transformation. I didn't plan on the way his eyes go molten when he looks at me. And I definitely didn't plan on falling for the man the fates designed for me.
My coven didn't send me here for love. Duty is everything, even if it means every level of sacrifice known to witchkind.
We’re now bound by destiny, but can we survive what’s coming?
