As a vampire slayer I have more on my mind than reclaiming the ancient relics my family has long sworn to protect. But I have orders. The mission is simple. Get in, get the relics, get out. But Fate trips me up with more than one catch when I follow a wild-hair lead on Whidbey Island. Wanna know the biggest catch of them all? A man I shouldn’t be attracted to at all...Alpha vampire Damien has caught my eye. He’s the most infuriating man I’ve ever met, and probably the very source of the relic thefts that are ending up in vamp hands. Which means he and the relics now threaten me personally, my very life and my family, and ironically, other vamps and magical creatures who are more than vulnerable to the slaying powers those relics bestow. But I can’t decide if Damien is amassing his own collection, or if something more sinister is afoot. Because not only does our fatal attraction get in the way, there’s also a little problem called murder. It’s a fight for survival as we find ourselves at the center of it all, digging up clues about a strange mystery that may spell disaster and death for us both.
