When Skye moves to Phoenix to get away from a painful past and meets the sexy and mysterious Bastien Lochner, she thinks her luck with men is finally turning around. But as the face of what starts out as a simple romance is peeled away, what remains may drag Skye quickly down to hell.
Bastien Lochner has spent his life atoning for the sinister bloodline he carries. But now a serial killer is running rampant through the streets of Phoenix, threatening to destroy the fragile balance between vampires and humankind. Brutal and out of control, the killer’s bloodlust leaves a throng of mutilated corpses in its wake.

Suddenly Bastien and Skye are pawns in a deadly game for control, played by the very forces he has spent centuries defying. Their fates will be decided once and for all as they hunt down and destroy the creature who threatens to consume the life they’ve fought for. In the midst of this battle, the father Bastien has never asked for comes at last to claim his son . . .
