Victoria Kingsley's world is the same as most girls her age. On the eve of her seventeenth birthday, she will be drugged, CAT scanned, and turned inside out to find her most compatible 'Match', someone to spend the rest of her life with. Of course, the man will have to be of Golden class-- from money and politician parents-- because no one had ever been Matched outside of their class. It simply wasn't done. After returning home from finishing school, Victoria can only hope to throw a wrench in the plan. All she wants is to be free, and there's only one place she knows that's closest to freedom: the Squalors. An eventful night, starting with a dance around a bonfire and ending with a bite from a Lycan, draws to a close, and from then on, Victoria knows one thing. She must have him, the man who may or may not have given her a better existence than just being a pretty prop to a politician's son, whether her Match likes it or not. In a world where, once Matched, you live a life of utter simplicity, Victoria Kingsley knows she will not, can not, conform to society.

Victoria is a 24-year-old woman living in New York City, working at Hellfire, the most exclusive and electrifying nightclub in town. The dark, pulsing atmosphere of the club provides a temporary escape from the ghosts of her past, but no amount of flashing lights or loud music can erase the trauma she carries. Her childhood was a nightmare. At just seven years old, she lost both of her parents, leaving her in the care of her Aunt Dee-a woman too blinded by love to protect Victoria from the true monster in their home: Rick, her aunt's cruel and controlling boyfriend. Living under his roof meant walking on eggshells, never knowing what might set him off. His presence made Victoria's childhood a prison of fear, and even now, years later, the scars of that time remain. But Victoria's past isn't the only danger lurking in her life. There's Stephen-a man who watches her every move. He's obsessed with her, captivated by everything about her. He follows her, studies her, and knows things no stranger should. But in his mind, he's not a threat. He's her protector. A possessive, dangerously delusional guardian who believes only he can keep her safe. Stephen is no ordinary stalker-he's calculated, intelligent, and strikingly handsome, with a physique that commands attention. He could blend into any crowd, walk past anyone unnoticed, yet his entire world revolves around one person: Victoria. He doesn't want to hurt her-at least, not in the way most predators do. Instead, he wants to save her from the dangers of the world, even if it means taking her away from it altogether. As Victoria unknowingly lives under Stephen's watchful eye, she remains unaware of just how deep his obsession runs-or how much closer he is to making her his.
