It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a girl with rare blood must be in want of a vampire problem.
Cally’s life was complicated enough without nightmares, strange magic, and a brooding immortal with boundary issues. When she learns her blood is singular, powerful, and catnip for vampires, she has to ask herself: what’s worse—being the prey, or accidentally falling for the predator?
Now, caught in the chaos of a deadly turf war in Boston, the only thing more dangerous than the vampire hunting her is the one who refuses to stay away.
Antoine, three centuries deep into a life he didn’t choose, is tired—of rules, of territory, of loneliness. His connection to Cally is unsettling, her blood too potent to ignore. And yet, it’s her wild, reckless spirit that draws him in. Is Cally the one who can shatter the chains of his own making?
But as Cally struggles to control the magic inside her and navigate the violent world she’s been thrust into, she must decide whether she’s walking into a trap—or if she’s already caught in it.
She wasn’t prey. She wasn’t magic. She wasn’t his. He disagreed.
For fans of Bride, Born in Fire, and The Serpent and the Wings of Night, this paranormal urban fantasy romance blends an irreverent tone and a vampiric setting with supernatural conflict and slow-burn heat.
