Malcolm Blackmon had nothing against vampires. He just wasn't sure he wanted to be one. A crime scene gone bad and mortal injury forced the Australian transplant into a hasty decision, accepting a vampire friend's adoption. His new family welcomed him with promises of a wonderful life free of his responsibilities as an undercover cop. Early retirement, no money worries and pretty donors catering to his appetites for blood and pleasure? Not bad. Hunting down New Orleans criminal low-life for blood and sport… He'd get used to it.He'd manage all right if he could just get past Emily Kagan. Mistaken for his donor when Malcolm first rose, her lush dancer's body filled his arms while her sweet kisses and sweeter blood flooded Malcolm's senses. Since then, nothing has smelled, tasted or felt the same. His vampire family warns him his fixation is a danger-Emily's taste has been amplified in his memories due to the stress of his first hunger when he rose. But it's so much more to Malcolm. His spirit lingers with Emily during the day, flirting, seducing, protecting. Loving. Can Malcolm control his vampirism and keep nice with his family while the family patriarch researches more of Emily's unique origins and the wonderful connection Malcolm is destined to share with the love he never found in life?
