As leader of The Executioners and founder of The Alliance, Quinn Stone is bound by duty to his race; spending more time fighting than he does in a woman's presence, the warrior is one of eight vampires who have sworn to protect their people against an organization of scientists set out to capture them and clone their genetics for the advancement of humanity. Dia Manaret is the owner of a ghost tour company and has always been inexplicably captivated by all things occult- especially vampires. When their paths collide on a sultry night in Miami Beach, they are irresistibly drawn to one another by the power of a prophecy, yet as she delves deeper into his world, she becomes a target for his enemies. Although Dia is familiar with the darkness of vampires, the evil side of her own species is something she knows nothing about. Now Quinn's desire to protect his race is matched by his passion for Dia. In a battle to defend everything he loves, danger and romance ignite as his strength is put to the ultimate test.
