Nineteen-year-old Gabriella thought her biggest battles were grief and loneliness. But after a brutal attack in the woods and a rescue she doesn't fully understand, she wakes to find herself in the hands of strangers who insist she isn't human at all-she's something far rarer. Something dangerous. The Guardians, a secret organization hidden in plain sight, claim they're protecting her. Yet their facility feels more like a prison than a refuge, with cameras in the corners, guards at every exit, and half-truths wrapped in promises of safety. Among them is Dominic, the vampire assigned to watch her. He's steady, protective, and far too good at keeping secrets. Gabriella knows she can't trust him-or the Guardians-but she also can't ignore the pull she feels toward him. Every conversation is a battle of wills, every glance a temptation she can't afford. Because somewhere inside her, a power she doesn't understand is awakening... one the Guardians are desperate to control.
