At the brink of death, a reason to live...

Groomed from birth to be an Inherited Servant and serve only the most powerful vampire masters, Alanna did the unthinkable: she betrayed her Master to the Vampire Council. Now death is her future, but until her Master is captured, she must be protected. The Council assigns her a guardian.

Alanna's elite training wasn't intended for someone like Evan, a vampire artist with a wandering lifestyle. Even his Scottish servant, Niall, is rough-mannered. But these two men will teach Alanna something her rigorous training never did. How to feel, how to desire...perhaps even how to love. Until she runs out of time.
