When dhampir Kia Montana takes a man home, she isn't looking for names or a relationship—she only wants someone who can satisfy her lust for both sex and blood. But Kia's new mission is to find Sean Maximillus, Lord Vampire and the lone being capable of curing Kia's mother. Kia thought she found the key to success with Ronan, a mysterious man who promises to take her to Maximillus-and who shares a carnal passion with Kia even bloodlust couldn't match. But Ronan also seems to know too much about Kia-things she never told him. And as she is drawn deeper into Ronan's world, he reveals secrets that will change Kia's life forever.
