Eleanor "Ellie" Virette has spent years blending in with humans, suppressing her vampiric instincts to live as an ordinary high school senior. But when a ruthless vampire hunter, Nikolai Volkov, tracks her down and takes her captive, her carefully constructed life shatters. Nikolai is infamous among supernatural circles-a relentless killer feared even by the most powerful of Ellie's kind. But instead of executing her, he keeps her imprisoned, claiming she's different. As Ellie fights to escape, secrets unravel: a deadly prophecy, a hidden war between vampire factions, and the forbidden connection that binds her to the man who should be her greatest enemy. The deeper Ellie and Nikolai fall into their dangerous attraction, the more the lines between love and hate blur. But with hunters, ancient vampires, and her own monstrous nature closing in, Ellie must decide: is Nikolai her captor or her salvation? And can love survive in the shadow of death?
