An alternate cover for this ASIN can be found here. Alasdair Connery has seen a lot in ten thousand years. He’s the first of his kind; the father of all nightwalkers. Together with his trusted assistant Edgar, he trolls for victims to feed from at his time of blood lust. When he’s invited to a wedding, he meets his perfect choices—a married couple. Bruce and Jules have their own sets of insecurities and secrets. She hides a wealth of insecurities under a shield of bravado, and Bruce? He hides the fact that he can’t stop thinking about the love of his life—his college flame Dr. Jeffrey Bayfield. With Alasdair’s powers of seduction working a little too well, he finds that both of them are growing somewhat dependent on him. Growing increasingly annoyed at their emotional baggage, some of which he is responsible for, he’s willing to put up with their games for a short time, but something has to happen before his blood fever is over for another fifty years and he has to go back to donors once again, unable to kill humans for their red gift. He rather likes the killing part. And what is he going to do about Edgar’s own growing feelings for him?

It's been five long but happy years since Bruce and Jeffrey got married. Bruce has his doctorate in psychology now, and he and his husband plan on opening a practice together. But life has a way of interfering. A tragic accident tests both of them, and Jeffrey grows increasingly concerned about Bruce's fragile state of mind, especially when it's revealed that the accident was anything but. Who could hate them so much? And will they try again? Alasdair knows. And he will do everything in his power to keep both Bruce and Jeffrey safe.
