With such novels as Queen of Dragons and The Dream Thief, Shana Abรฉ has created a unique and vividly imagined world that exists side by side with our ownโa realm populated by a race of supersensual men and women whose power to change shape permits them unlimited acts of pleasureโฆand ever-present danger. Now the survival of the drรกkon rests in the hands of a young woman with untried and unexpected powersโand the powerful Alpha male she must break every drรกkon law to save.
The drรกkon are at war, surrounded by an enemy they have every reason to fear. The sanf inimicus are no ordinary human beings but the most dangerous of hunters. Theyโve sworn to exterminate the shape-shifters whose presence they now can detect, and theyโve already claimed a prize prisoner: Lord Rhys Langford.
Itโs a blow the drรกkon clans feel from Darkfrith, England, all the way to the Carpathian Mountains of Transylvania. But it strikes no one harder than Zoe Cyprienne Lane. A mere seamstressโs daughter, Zoe isnโt even in the same league as Rhys. In fact, as an unwed male in the Alpha line, according to drรกkon custom, he owns her. So nothing could be more outrageousโor personally ruinousโthan the mere notion that she might set out on her own to find her childhood friend...and first true love.
But the unexpected is exactly what Zoe intends to do. For years sheโs been hiding two extraordinary Gifts that have set her apart from other drรกkon females: the power to become invisible and the power to feel othersโ emotions. Now, guided by a link to Rhysโhis presence and touch as electric as if he were beside her in the fleshโZoe uses both Gifts to infiltrate the sanf inimicus. And for Rhys, whose time is running out, Zoe is his last lifeline to a worldโand a loveโ he never thought heโd regain. Only together again, hunter and huntress, can they save the drรกkon from the traitor in their midst who would destroy them all.
