Sometimes life takes you down a completely different path from the one you had originally planned.
After successfully rescuing the daughter of a draconian senator and other innocent women from a vampire psychopath, Sam and fellow warriors, Zoricah and Yara, have to trade sunny New York for gloomy London. Time is running out on their unfinished mission. More innocent people will die if they don't catch the person behind the attacks in New York. But something is making Sam lose control of her powers. Something or someone. Ever since her first – and quite heated – encounter with Hikuro, her energies had gone haywire. The vampire king's second in command affected her in a way no one had ever before. Her torment, however, is bound to get worse, with Hikuro's unexpected arrival in London.
Ever since she set foot on vampire territory, Sam had turned Hikuro's carefully controlled life upside down. He doesn't trust her, but some strange force pulled him toward her; an inexplicable attraction that defies centuries of training. But if Hikuro is to keep his king safe, he must keep a close eye on Sam, even if he loses his sanity and his heart in the process.
