AT THE CROSSROADS OF DEATH AND DESIRE, A WOMAN TASTES A
PLEASURE NO MORTAL IS MEANT TO SURVIVE.
In the frozen Alaskan wilderness, former state trooper Jenna
Darrow survives an unspeakable breach of body and soul. But
with her narrow escape comes an even greater challenge. For
strange changes are taking place within her, as she
struggles to understand—and control—a new hunger. To do so,
she will seek shelter in the Boston compound of the Order,
an ancient race of vampire warriors whose very existence is
shrouded in mystery. Perhaps the most mysterious of them all
is Brock, a brooding, dark-eyed alpha male whose hands hold
the power to comfort, heal . . . and arouse.
As she recovers under Brock’s care, Jenna finds herself
drawn to the Order’s mission: to stop a ruthless enemy and
its army of assassins from subjecting Earth to a reign of
terror. Yet in spite of their resolve, a purely physical
relationship without strings soon binds Brock and Jenna
together with a desire fiercer than life and stronger than
death itself—until a secret from Brock’s past and Jenna’s
own mortality challenges their forbidden love to the
ultimate trial by fire.
