The vampire Ambrose has been content overseeing the ancient site of their kind’s lore for most of his existence. But when a gorgeous interloper, Renata, manages to get past his defenses, Ambrose steps in to handle the matter personally. After Renata is captured trespassing a second time in the secretive Eternal Alliance compound, she’s determined to learn the truth of what’s been going on at the site once and for all. Clues to her father’s disappearance in the form of cryptic notes in his archeology journals have led her to the compound, and she’s not leaving until she gets some answers. But as Renata gets closer to the truth of what’s transpired here, Ambrose knows she’s trouble on multiple levels. Not only is she a trespasser but also his fated mate. Claiming his mate will mean showing her everything, revealing the truth. And hoping such a perfect woman will still want him when all is said and done.
