Love Haven is deep in turmoil, with gang warfare and a vast criminal underworld ruling over its citizens. Beneath the death and violence however, is something far more evil and sinister, rising from the darkness to leech upon the city. For Jason Riley, murder and crime is all he knows, but what starts as just another simple delivery job for the local crime boss quickly turns into a life-or-death situation, and he is soon thrust into a world he once thought impossible. Can he stop the evil that is descending upon the city of Love Haven, or will he be corrupted by it like so many before him?

Zoe knows who the monster is. Surely it must be the boy that she has spent the last month being strangely enamoured by, only to find out that he is an almost two hundred year old immortal who feeds on the life blood of other beings. But all is not as it seems, and as Zoe confronts the creature that hides behind Mercer's eyes, she will discover who the true monster is, and make a decision that will change her and Mercer's lives forever.
