Blood and Daylight

The Daylight Chronicles - Book Two By B.K. Drakus

Daylight changed everything-and not without consequences.

In the aftermath of revealing herself to save others, Lena Ashcroft can no longer hide in plain sight. Her ability to walk in the sun has made her a symbol to some and a threat to others, drawing attention from both vampires and hunters who believe the world must be restored to its old balance.

As factions fracture and ancient rules begin to fail, the talisman that once protected Lena behaves unpredictably-stronger in daylight, weaker at night. Vampires who have long hidden in the margins step forward, drawn by the possibility of a future that no longer requires darkness.

Meanwhile, Noah Pierce discovers the truth about his family's legacy. The hunters he once thought were myths are real-and no longer unified. Rogue cells emerge, convinced that peace is weakness and that Lena's existence is proof the old war must resume.

When a public confrontation between humans, hunters, and vampires erupts, the fragile balance holding the town together begins to crack. Lena and Noah are forced to choose not only where they stand, but how far they are willing to go to protect a future neither side was meant to inherit.

Blood and Daylight continues The Daylight Chronicles with heightened tension, moral complexity, and a deepening exploration of power, restraint, and choice. With its blend of supernatural suspense, slow-burn romance, and thoughtful worldbuilding, this second installment challenges the idea that peace can survive secrecy-and asks whether coexistence can scale beyond a single town.

Ideal for readers who enjoyed Daylight Bound and are drawn to YA paranormal series that evolve in scope and emotional depth.
