The sexually alluring vampire Ophelia Beliveau owns Beliveau Landscaping and spends much of her time in her garden. Finding her garden vandalized, she calls the police and gets the hunky Bayou Gavotte police officer Gideon O'Toole. Ophelia has found that no man is able to resist her once she turns on the allure. Her sister, Violet, and niece, Zelda, are also vamps.

As Gideon's sister, Artemisia, and a friend seek help from Ophelia to uncover their blackmailer, the bodies begin to pile up and suspicion is centered on Ophelia. Gideon is not immune to her sexually magnetic pull, but is finding his attraction a genuine and lasting one. Ophelia avoids all men...except her strong pull to Gideon. Sex with Ophelia is unlike anything he has ever experienced. When Zelda and a young neighbor girl disappear, the fangs come out and her natural instincts take over.

The story is interesting, but I found it somewhat hard to follow, at first. The characters were interesting and individualized, to say the least. It took a little bit to get into the story, but once there, it became more interesting.
