Smart, popular, gorgeous but hot tempered, 19 year old Leyla Ann Ortiz attracts the attention of the guys and the envy of the girls at her university. Unfortunately life is... complicated, to say the least.
Twenty year old Jason Brooks: The epitome of a dark sex god, and not in a twisted, glittery vampire way. Too bad he is one. (A vampire, that is. Glittery? Not so much.)
When Leyla runs into Jason at not-so-small frat party, she senses something, something that she's never felt before. Some type of mind-boggling feeling that makes jolts of electricity run through her veins, although she can't pinpoint what. It's something deep that feels like it's awoken after a deep slumber, and Leyla is damn sure it's not just lust.
If it's not lust... what is it?
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
