Katie Saltzman is alone. Not literally but that's how it feels, after a long and painful three months she tracked down her Father only to find him about to die. As his last request she is put into the custody of Damon Salvatore the vampire who has no use for emotional humans but for his best friend he tries to be the Dad that she lost.
Sadly for him his heart can't let this happen. When his heart overtakes his head will he be capable to tell the orphan his true emotions or will the other vampires in town get to her first?
Or will he realise his true emotions too late when her heart has been taken by one of the other men in her life such as the original brother, or the vampire hunter?
