Belonging nowhere, the best at what she does, love is the only thing that can bring this Guardian to her knees.

She was born half vampire. Half bloodmate. A half-breed, belonging to neither world but protector of both. Carissa Morrisroe chose to become a Guardian, and she's turned out to be one of the best. Cold as any other Guardian, she's a natural with killing. Nothing can bring her down. Nothing, that is but one simple thing—love.

Rage is nothing more than a killer. Raised with not one kind hand, it's no wonder he feels nothing for no one—or so the world thinks. However, when he meets the one and only female Guardian on the battle field, buried emotions start to emerge.

Enemy—savior—lover? Which will they be? It's a question that Carissa asks herself as she fights the pull. It's a question that Rage is tired of asking, but when fate knocks them both down hard, they get their answer and with it, a vengeance no one sees coming.
