SCARLETT ROSEWOOD

In the depths of the night, Xavier Thorne, a centuries-old vampire who has sworn off love, sets out to prove that all he needs is one night of ecstasy. Lyra Starling, a half-blood grappling with pack troubles, sets out to find a man who can help her forget her worries by giving her a night of passion.

When their paths cross, Xavier becomes captivated by Lyra's presence. He charms her into spending the night with him, promising to show her pleasures she's never known. Lyra, torn between her disdain for vampires and her desire for something more, hesitates. But Xavier's smooth words start to sway her towards the forbidden.

They both think it's just one night, a secret that will stay between them. But fate has other plans. While Lyra resists the path laid out for her, Xavier embraces it, determined to keep her by his side no matter what.

A clever spell traps Lyra in Xavier's home, fueling her anger at being imprisoned. She launches relentless attempts to get rid of Xavier, but he finds amusement in each fiery encounter, enchanted by her defiant spirit.

Will Lyra succeed in ending Xavier's existence, or will she give in to the temptations that draw her deeper into his dark embrace? And when she's faced with the ultimate decision, will she choose her pack or the passion that Xavier offers, forever changing her life?
