In a world where danger lurks at every turn, I never expected to find love in the arms of a Vinduthi hitman. In the moment I meet Makar, I know he's trouble.

The more time we spend together, the more I feel a magnetic pull towards this alien assassin. Makar's gentleness and protective nature awaken feelings I never expect, challenging the walls I keep up to shield my heart.

As the warmer days of summer gave way to the shortened, crisp days of fall, my life changed in the most unexpected of ways. I met two men and was not prepared for either of them. Theo was warm, generous, and easygoing; whereas, Wyatt was intense, serious, and protective. They share a past that neither one are honest about. Whatever happened all those years ago has created an undeniable rift between them. Augmenting the charged and confounding emotions of new love, our city has been terrorized by a serial killer, and I can feel someone watching me.

I'm popping bonbons and riding the high of securing the lease on my jewelry boutique off Main Street when I make a Galentine's Day pact with my girlfriends. Fueled by a sugar high and bravado, I promise to step out of my comfort zone and book myself a life-drawing portrait. All my life, I've let other people define how I see myself but not anymore. Or so I tell myself. Because . . . getting naked? In front of a stranger? It's a lot. Especially when the artist turns out to be Bentley Cormack, my one true love and the man who left me behind.

I rarely eat the food at my upscale Italian restaurant. Vampires need blood, not pasta. I crave the hunt, but I'm not a killer. A lady-killer, yes. There's something about the vampire in me that lures women. The only woman immune to my allure is my dearest and oldest friend, Lily. She helped me survive my transition to vampirism, despite also becoming a monster of sorts. Kind and full of life, Lily is everything I'm not. My unbeating heart wants more than friendship with the fairy, but I'm afraid to ruin our friendship. Besides, what would she want with a broody vampire?
