Every one in Maysville, Kentucky, knew who Mercy Summers was; it was impossible not to know the sweetheart who had won over the hearts of everybody in town. She was the kind of girl you fell in love with simply by glancing at her smile.
But then she crashed her car on the interstate, and when she came out of hospital, Mercy Summers was a completely different person. Her smiles turned to sneers, her curves to lean muscle and her heart into ice.
She became our very own Ice Queen, and we became her subjects. But while a queen can reign without a king, a king will always seek out his queen, and Mercy Summers was no exception. And so a new couple took over town.
Ari and Soren's adventures continue as Soren struggles with his new vampiric urges and a coven of witches attempts to recruit Ari for their own ends.
*****
As dark dreams plague Soren, Ari finds his new abilities difficult to control. Something is awakening within him, and as his power grows, he attracts the attention of a group of witches who call themselves the Hecataeon. They believe Ari is an emanation of the goddess Hecate - a physical manifestation of her power - and they want that power for themselves. With their relationship facing challenges from within, Ari and Soren must find a way to unite their strengths before external forces tear them apart.
