Despite being an incubus, Davin Murphy has been living by a code of strict celibacy by feeding off women's dreams and fantasies. And he was perfectly content to keep things that way, especially with a particular writer who tempted both the man and the demon in him.

Paige Summers, up and coming erotic romance author and complete realist, draws her inspiration from the muse that visits her in her dreams. His words and his touch sets her creativity free and her body aflame. Little does she know that her imaginary lover is not as imaginary as she thinks.

But when her life is threatened by inexplicable forces and her muse's look-a-like shows up at her doorstep offering protection, Paige must work with Davin to survive against the odds if she wants any semblance of her old life back.

The question is what's more important - her sanity or her heart.
