Bestowed with eternal life by the Ancient Vasilios, Alasdair Kyriakous
is one of the most feared and ruthless vampires in existence. His name
carries weight across all of the seven continents. But he is a mystery
to his kind, an anomaly among the self-indulgent. While he enjoys the
pleasures of the flesh, he is exceptionally particular in his choice of
partners and prides himself on his ironclad self-control. Yet with one
look his control will become a thing of the past, and Alasdair will
discover that eternal life doesn't always last forever....
Thrust into a world he could never have imagined, Leo Chapel awakens in
his worst nightmare. Taken hostage by the dangerously mesmerizing
vampire Alasdair, Leo must rely on his intelligence to escape before he
reveals a secret he isn't even aware he's hiding. Unaware that they've
been brought together by an outside force and are little more than pawns
to a higher power, Alasdair and Leo spend time trying to uncover the
other's secrets, the attraction between them growing stronger all the
while. But enemies are watching and preparing to act against them. When
decisions that will alter lives and destinies have to be made - can a
dead, gray heart learn to beat again?
