"Robson has created such life-like characters I feel a strong connection and would totally take them all out for a beer if I could." —Gothic Mom's Reviewers

Taran Wird, the loudmouth mistress of flame and lightning, didn't want to attend the formal gathering of the supernatural elite. She did so only to help unite the supreme beings in attendance in one common goal: protecting Taran's sister, Celia.

Celia is pregnant with alpha werewolf Aric Connor's child, the same child prophesized to save the world from uprising evil. Evil wants this child dead before he is born and, more importantly, before he can grow strong enough to stop it.

Taran and her werewolf lover, Gemini, put plans in place to protect Celia. Master Vampire Misha Aleksandr and his clan also swear their allegiance to Celia and vow to keep her from harm. The witches even cast protection spells around the manor to curse anyone with malintent who enters. Nothing was supposed to go wrong, except everything did.

Creatures that shouldn't exist stalk the grounds and invade the premises, and every curse meant to shield the guests turns against them. No one counted on the powerful being who arrived uninvited. But he's here, manipulating the magic enclosing the estate to work in his favor.

As body counts rise and allies become enemies, chances are Celia won't survive the night. But evil never counted on how hard Taran Wird would fight, even at the expense of her life.
