After a string of devastating losses, Leah Blackwood retreats to a forgotten town, drawn to the crumbling Victorian mansion next door-the one everyone warns her to avoid. They say people disappear inside it. That it keeps them.
She doesn't listen.
Because behind those rotting walls lives a man with hollow eyes and a crooked smile. Gerard is strange, sharp vampire and terrifyingly magnetic... and somehow, he already seems to know her. As Leah spirals deeper into obsession, she uncovers a truth more chilling than any local legend: the house doesn't just take people. It feeds on them.
And Gerard?
He's its prisoner. And its predator.
Torn between a best friend who loves her and a monster who sees her soul, Leah must choose-run before it's too late, or stay and become part of the house's next story.
Because the house doesn't let go.
And it always wants one more.
After the events of book 1, Steve and the reader are settling into a normal groove of married couple and teammates, but life takes an unexpected turn. But with growing tensions within the team and a division into one side against the other, loyalties are tested more than ever (Civil War references).
