You wake up starving.
Not for food-for blood.
Eleanor awakens stripped of her memories...and cursed with a terrifying new thirst. Stopped moments before she can make a fatal mistake, she is taken in by William Bloom, a centuries-old vampire who offers her refuge within his secluded Virginia manor.
At Bloom Manor, she finds a coven of predators bound by rules that keep their kind hidden... and each other in check.
But something is wrong. Vampires are vanishing. Old powers are stirring. And Eleanor begins to suspect her transformation was not chance-but design.
Someone wanted her changed.
Someone wanted her to meet him.
To survive, Eleanor must master the hunger inside her... or lose herself to it.

"I don't think you want him," he said.
"You don't?" she whispered.
"No." His breath brushed her ear.
"It's me you want."
