Description

Devlin doesn't like humans

Most would support the extermination of the entire vampire race, and that's exactly what will happen unless his plan to organize a resistance force succeeds.

Emma is the only mortal who's ever managed to get under his skin. She's haunted him his entire life. He senses when she's in trouble, is drawn to her by energies he cannot understand.

Emma is a thrill seeker

She makes a hefty living writing about her adventures. Now, she wants to walk with vampires, to live among them. The book she'll write afterward will be the work of a lifetime, and she's convinced it will help establish peace between the vampires and humankind.

Education, enlightenment, understanding–these are the ways to end the current climate of fear and violence.

Devlin is determined to visit destruction on humans.

Emma is determined to stop him…

Even if it means betraying the powerful passion that burns between them, and the explosive feelings it conceals.

Now, anti-vampire forces have taken captives–two teens Devlin is sworn to protect and Emma's own peacenik father. Emma and Devlin must find common ground to save innocent lives, and prevent the annihilation of a species. Maybe his, or maybe her own.

But in such close proximity with so much at stake, the feelings they've been fighting reach the boiling point.
