A trilogy by Diane Whiteside, focusing on the vampire that rules the [[EverythingIsBigInTexas Texas territory]], Don Rafael Perez, and his children, and their respective love interests. The entire series takes place (mostly) during a period of time when Texas is involved in a SecretWar with the crazy NewOrleans patrona, Celeste. {{Flashback}}s occur regularly.

The three main novels (there are some short stories taking place in the universe too) are:
* ''Bond of Blood''
* ''Bond of Fire''
* ''Bond of Darkness''
Examples of:
* BeingTorturedMakesYouEvil: completely subverted with Rodrigo, combined with TheDogBitesBack.
* CloakAndDagger: vampires operating as secret agents for England after the French Revolution.
* ColdBloodedTorture: happens to Rodrigo for an ''extremely long time.''
* DoubleAgent: Celeste
* EmergencyTransformation
* FairCop: Steve
* {{Fictionary}}: the terminology vampires use for themselves is based off of feudal Spain, even in other countries. Also see BusmansVocabulary, GratuitousSpanish.
* FriendlyNeighborhoodVampires: the Texas, any vampires who were taught to feed on sex/love rather than fear/terror.
* FullyEmbracedFiend: pretty much every bad guy
* GratuitousFrench
* HowWeGotHere: the entire first half of ''Fire'' covers Jean-Marie and Helene's romance from the French Revolution onwards until their separation.
* ISeeDeadPeople: Ethan
* KissOfTheVampire
* MandatoryMotherhood: Rodrigo originally swears never to make vampire children, but eventually caves in.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: any vampire romance with a non-vampire, Ethan and Steve being the most prominent example.
* MeaningfulRename: why Rodrigo changed his name to Rafael in ''Fire.''
* MindlinkMates: conyuges.
* MindRape
* MyBiologicalClockIsTicking: the reason why Steve broke up with Ethan and married another man. It didn't work out for her.
* NeverFoundTheBody: should have been a hint to Helene and Jean-Marie, both of whom thought the other was dead for hundreds of years.
* OddlyCommonRarity: by the end of the series, there are ''four'' couples with conyuge bonds in Texas.
* OurVampiresAreDifferent
* PlayingWithFire: Helene, a rare female, non-insane version.
* PsychicLink: vampires have this with those they made.
* ReincarnationRomance: Rodrigo/Rafael and Blanche, after Blanche is reincarnated as Grania.
* SelfMadeOrphan: [[spoiler: Celeste set this up.]]
* SerialKiller
* SlidingScaleOfVampireFriendliness: depends on how your vampire was brought up and what they were brought up to feed on.
* SpiritAdvisor: Raoul to Celeste
* SpyCouple: Jean-Marie and Helene, briefly
* StartOfDarkness: Celeste's fiance Raoul getting killed (by Helene, not knowing he was there) starts hers, though she was kind of a SpoiledBrat before then.
* TomboyishName: Stephanie Amanda "Steve" Reynolds.
* TortureCellar
* VampiresAreRich
* VampiresAreSexGods
* WeddingDay: well, night in this case... combined with TheDeadCanDance.
