Maria Foster never had a normal life. Raised by her grandfather — a vampire hunter — she grew up moving from city to city, carrying false names and a silver stake, trained for a war most people don't know is real.

Then her grandfather sends her to Savannah. New city. New alias. Same mission. 

Except Savannah has other plans — because Savannah has Adrian Starling.

He sees straight through every version of her she's tried to be. She doesn't understand why she can't keep her distance. She tells herself it's just curiosity. 

She tells herself a lot of things.

Her grandfather always said the most dangerous vampires are the ones that don't look like monsters. Stake in hand. Heart in pieces.

Maria is about to find out everything she thought she knew was only the beginning — and that the hardest thing she'll ever have to destroy might be the one person she's started to trust.
