Humans have always suspected vampires exist. Now they know for sure. As long as I can remember, I’ve longed for a different life—one filled with adventure, excitement, and romance. This wasn't exactly what I had in mind… One minute I was riding in a horse-drawn buggy on my way home to my quiet Amish village—the next was torn by the screech of car tires, and twisted metal, and the white hot lance of pain. There was no doubt in my mind my life was over. So when I woke up to the face of a beautiful stranger who promised me the suffering would end soon, I thought I’d seen an angel. I couldn’t have been more wrong.

Believing she can never be with the guy she loves and knowing she doesn’t fit in at the Crimson Court, Abigail Byler has left the hills and caverns of Virginia for California and the Human-Vampire Coalition where she hopes to make the best of the unexpected turn her life has taken. That’s easier said than done when her heart still longs for her first love, Reece—and when tensions between humans and vampires in America are rapidly increasing. The last thing Abbi intends to do is return to the Bastion—it’s too dangerous for her there—in every way. But when her life takes another shocking twist, she may have no other choice than to make the perilous cross-country journey and face the vampire who turned her—and the one she still loves. This time, though, she won’t be alone. And the vampire queen of the Crimson Court is not going to like it when she finds out who’s coming to dinner.

I never thought I’d see her again. Never dared to hope. But against all odds, Abigail’s back. Unfortunately she’s as sweet as ever and even more beautiful. And I’m in serious trouble. I’ve learned to hate her in the time she’s been away, but the blazing attraction between us is still there. And now, having her close enough to touch—close enough to taste—I’m in a literal battle for my life. Because my Bloodbound oath still holds, and the punishment for breaking it is still death. The last thing I want is “alone time” with her, but that’s exactly what I get when the queen sends me on a mission, and the only way to keep Abbi alive is to take her with me. In this third book of the Crimson Accord series, the rift between humans and vampires widens, the menace of the Crimson Court intensifies, and the temptation for Reece and Abigail grows to a fever pitch. Will they give in to it? Or will the dangerous secrets that stand between them destroy their chance of love and any hope of living in peace?

The Crimson Court is at a turning point. Abigail Byler's life is about to change profoundly... or end for good. It remains to be seen what will become of the vampire queen, Imogen. And Abbi's eternal love, Reece, faces the possibility of taking on a job he was never meant to have while living without the only girl he's ever loved. In this fourth and final installment of the Crimson Accord series, the fates of both the vampire and human races are at stake, and it all depends on who will wear the Crimson Crown. Don't miss the exciting conclusion of Abbi's story!
