Even as the FBI tries to keep rogue vampires from preying on humans-for killing, for turning, for pleasure-the stakes only get higher... Barrett Miles had no idea that vampires were real - until Belladonna recruited her to serve as a covert agent and infiltrate a murderous sex ring run by the most depraved of immortals: those who feed on the purity and blood of innocents. Their latest victim: a young girl whom Barrett promised to protect. Now, forced to team up with her former lover, undercover sniper Nick Maltese, Barrett is caught between fulfilling her mission and shielding her heart from the man who betrayed her. Nick is hunting a new breed of vampire and harboring a terrible secret when Barrett finds him. As the hunt begins and desires from the past resurface, Nick knows he has only one chance to prove himself to Barrett. Can Nick and Barrett save a lost girl and protect humanity? And will they rebuild a love strong enough to save them both?
