A presence haunts Naomi, one that calls to her, whispers to her. It is a call that she can’t resist as it returns night after night, nor the scarred demon who has invaded her dreams. Deathly pale and possessing a frighteningly inhuman appearance, she ought to be afraid of him—but then why does she feel this pull toward him? Can she look past his scars and frightening visage to see the heart of the male within? And can she discover the truth about herself and the presence of the demon before her time runs out? Condemned to self-exile and badly scarred in consequence of his decisions, Gralius is irresistibly pulled to a witch not assigned to his keeping. She is not his responsibility, and yet he finds that he is willing to do anything to save the female who has captivated his mind, heart, and soul.
