Description
What if there was truth to the vampire myth? And what if your fate was bound to that truth?
Desperate to escape her abusive stepbrother, Blaire accepts a scholarship to the exclusive private university Blackthorn Academy. Surrounded by Vasirian -- the root of vampire myth -- Blaire fears she has traded one cage for another. She is marked as a Korrena, the fated mate of a Vasirian. While she is attracted to the mysterious Lukas, whose gruff exterior hides a lonely heart, the expected ritual for the bond repels her. No one can guarantee her safety; a match between a Vasirian and a human is unprecedented. If she leaves Blackthorn, she could be killed, yet if she stays, Lukas could unintentionally drain her of life.
Facing danger by stepping into a den of monsters may be the only way for her to truly be free.
??????????????????????????????????
We've been completely wrong about vampires.
Dracula? Lestat? Edward Cullen?
Storytellers have gotten it wrong for ages.
But the truth found me.
He found me.
I wasn't prepared for the truth when I enrolled in Blackthorn Academy.
And now I have to choose between fighting for my life outside the academy gates, or accepting the mate bond of a Vasirian, and discovering who I really am.

Mark of the Vasirian is the debut full-length (nearly 120k words) new adult, slow burn paranormal romance by author Stephanie Denne.
The dark and mysterious world of the Blackthorn Saga is a new take on vampire romance in an academy setting complete with a king and his court, fated mates, magic, and more! The Blackthorn Saga takes readers on a journey of healing and self-discovery, confronting the toxicity behind the fated mate trope and the jealousy and possessiveness around it. With characters who have barely entered adulthood, angst is aplenty, and it takes more than one book for our characters to resolve their differences and discover what real love is. And of course, this dark fantasy romance series has a HEA, with spin-off series to come.
