Turned supernaturals are against vampire law. I am against vampire law. So why has Count Balthazar Rossi let me live? I’ve lost everything. My standing as a powerful Alpha shifter is over. Even my own kind look at me with disgust and suspicion now my blood is tainted. I should not have survived kidnap and torture. But I did. Because of him. The enigmatic and dangerous Count Balthazar Rossi saved me, or condemned me to this hell, depending on how you look at it. Now I’m his guest, unable to leave his side, as everyone, including me, waits to see what kind of monster I become. But giving up is not in my nature. I’ll fight the virus that threatens to turn me into a bloodthirsty killing machine, and I’ll take back control of my life. When my blood lust hits, I crave him. My hunger is insatiable. His touch sets me on fire, and his kisses consume me. I have no idea how to handle the inferno of desire he stokes, or the craving to taste his blood on my tongue. And no one is more surprised than me when I find myself surrendering to those needs. Yet the Count has his own problems. Big ones. He’s fighting a vicious war. One that will decide who sits upon the Blood Throne and who rules the two opposing vampire nations. The Vampire King is weak, and his son is a mere boy. Balthazar is the strength standing between them and the ruin of the Original vampires. But that’s Balthazar’s headache. Mine is staying alive, and not getting too attached to his brooding, controlling and sexy presence in my life. The only light in all of this is Sorcha. The beautiful human is a mystery. She is also a ‘guest’ of the Count’s, and like me, he keeps her at a distance. Part of me is glad. She’s a tower of strength when my own seems to be failing, and the friendship we form is something I would not gladly give up. In a world riddled with spilled blood and deceit, can we learn to trust each other, even if we can’t trust the formidable Count, or will the war for the Blood Throne rip us apart?
