At Bloom Manor, she discovers a family of ancient predators bound by rules meant to keep their existence hidden: a watchful patriarch, a haunting mother, a boy who should never have been turned-and three sisters guarding a secret that could change everything.

To uncover the truth, she must master the darkness within her... or be consumed by it. ********** "I don't think you want him," he said. "You don't?" she whispered. "No." His breath brushed her ear.
