Ava Crowley has a secret.
Seven years ago a vampire saved her life. Thrust into a world of blood and ash, Ava is now certain of two things:
The first, is that Cassius Aurelia is not like other vampires.For one, he likes a full-bodied Bordeaux, has an uncanny ability to materialize out of nowhere, and when he smiles just enough to show a hint of fang, Ava can't help the way her body responds.
The last thing Ava knows for certain, is that one day she must put a stake through his heart, to be free of his mark.
Time is running out.

Can Ava ignore the fire burning between them, or will the bond she feels hurt more than just Cassius?
