What if The Vampire Diaries met Fifty Shades of grey? She was scared to die. He was scared to love. Emma Reyes is dying. It’s the only secret she thought she’d ever have to keep. Until that alley in Manhattan, that corpse, and him…covered in blood with unnaturally long fangs. A vampire? Impossible. They do not exist. And yet the way he looks at her feels terrifyingly real—and fear isn’t the only thing he awakens in her. He is everything she should run from, but what if he is also her only chance at survival? By day, Andrew Anderson runs a pharmaceutical empire. By night, he burns bodies in a crematorium. The girl from the alley is a problem he should have taken care of. Instead, he hired her to keep an eye on her. But every moment near Emma feeds his hunger, and it is no longer just bloodlust bringing him to his knees. It’s her. Every part of her. As more people disappear across New York City, one rule remains unchanged: you do not play with monsters. You become their prey…or their obsession.
