Rhain has survived for centuries. He has always been in control and has lied, betrayed, manipulated, and killed to ensure his survival and success.​

 

He has been an ally to the Blackjacks, an enemy, and, more recently, their prisoner. Trust was never something he needed.​

 

Now he's dying. The Fever is slowly destroying him, but Rhain has never been afraid of death. After three hundred years of keeping everyone at a safe distance, it's the woman refusing to leave his side who truly terrifies him.​

 

Annie is a surgeon. Saving lives is what she does - even when the patient is an infuriating, secretive ancient vampire who refuses to tell her the truth. Rhain is arrogant and dangerous. He's also sick, alone, and far more vulnerable than he wants anyone to see. Staying away is becoming impossible.​

 

But the past isn't finished with him. The Order want him back, and they're still hunting the Blackjacks. Rhain is keeping secrets that could change everything and trusting him might be the most dangerous thing Annie has ever done.
