Shapeshifters from across the country are convening in the
Windy City, and as a gesture of peace, Master Vampire Ethan
Sullivan has offered their leader a very special bodyguard:
Merit, Chicago's newest vampire. Merit is supposed to
protect the Alpha, Gabriel Keene-and to spy for the vamps
while she's at it. Oh, and luckily Ethan's offering some
steamy, one-on-one combat training sessions to help her
prepare for the mission.
Unfortunately, someone is
gunning for Gabriel, and Merit soon finds herself in the
line of fire. She'll need all the help she can get to track
down the would-be assassin, but everywhere she turns, there
are rising tensions between supernaturals-not least between
her and a certain green-eyed, centuries-old master vampire.
