Less than twenty-four hours after my sister was brutally murdered, my whole world unravels until the very laws of my existence are broken. A bloodthirsty female slides promises against my thoughts, a psychotic cult demands I channel powerful objects to open a door between realms. Then there are the blood-drinking ghouls controlled by the most dangerous man alive who wants me dead. Total insanity, right? Except, this is my new life.



Then I meet him. Black. Tall, overbearing, stubborn. The man harbors sinister secrets and lives by his own set of rules—rules I can't begin to comprehend. I don’t doubt he’d sacrifice me for his own end goals, but even he can’t deny the chemistry sizzling between us.



When searching for my sister's killer in a seedy suburb of Glasgow, I discover nothing about my life is what it seems. Family secrets spew from the grave. Betrayal sterilizes logical belief, emotions run hot, I make some seriously bad choices. But with the heart of Scotland becoming a paranormal battlefield, I have to wonder.... When did staying alive get so damn hard?
