Shadows and Gold: Elemental Legacy Novella 1

A summer vacation. A simple favor. Twenty million in gold.

From USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Hunter comes the adventure that started it all. Slow burn romance, treasure hunting, ancient immortals, and the first Ben and Tenzin story in the eleven-book Elemental Legacy series: a human raised by vampires and the ancient wind vampire who refuses to leave him alone.

Ben Vecchio knows better than to trust a vampire's idea of a quick trip. He was raised by immortals. But when Tenzin suggests a summer in China, he can't say no. Someone has to keep her out of trouble. And he could use the Mandarin practice.

Then Tenzin mentions the gold.

Now Ben is driving a truck full of rotting vegetables and twenty million in treasure across two thousand miles of desert, with a five-thousand-year-old wind vampire riding shotgun and every grasping immortal between Kashgar and Shanghai hunting what's in the back. The reward will be worth it. If they make it to Shanghai. If Tenzin actually told him everything.

She never tells him everything.

At least he's practicing his Chinese. Right?

SHADOWS AND GOLD is the first novella in the Elemental Legacy series, an eleven-book urban fantasy adventure featuring ancient vampires, lost treasure, international heists, and the beginning of the slow burn partnership readers can't stop talking about.
