When pureblood vampire Valeria Trumaine returned home one morning to find her father Hadrian standing in her living room, she knew she was about to get trouble in spades. She didn't expect the trouble would come in the form of her ex-fiancée, a vampire playboy and son of the region's master vampire.

Valeria avoided Tristan like the plague after leaving him, but now that he'd gone rogue, the task falls on her to hunt him down and bring him to justice. Finding Tristan proves to be more dangerous than she realized. The spoiled vampire has changed in ways that go against nature and become more powerful than anyone ever imagined. Refusing to let her face the abomination that Tristan has become alone, Val's best friend and powerful Sidhe princess, Irulan, joins the hunt. Valeria will find that Irulan's motives for keeping her safe aren't what she thinks. Soon she's faced with an undeniable attraction that makes her question everything she knew about herself.

Can she accomplish her task and prevent more innocent lives from being destroyed? Can she do it and not lose herself to his madness? In the middle of all the madness, can she embrace the unexpected love that fate has thrown her way?
