In the war against vampires, mankind has only one hope: The Dark-Hunters. Ancient warriors who died of brutal betrayal, the Dark-Hunters have sworn themselves into the service of the goddess Artemis to protect us.

It's a pact with pretty good perks. Immortality, power, psychic abilities, wealth and a cool wardrobe. But it comes with a few drawbacks: fatal sun poisoning and a new, irreparable dental problem. But aside from the fangs and nocturnal lifestyle, it's not so bad.

In this volume, the adventure continues with Talon and Sunshine as they face off against the Greek and Celtic gods bent on making a major comeback.

Valerius—once a Roman general, now a tormented Dark-Hunter—meets his match in Tabitha, a woman who takes stabbing vampires seriously (even when she stabs the wrong guy). Their story unfolds with heart-pounding chases, complex histories, and unexpected vulnerability. The plot dives deep into family trauma, personal healing, and the power of acceptance.

• Valerius Magnus: Stoic, honorable, and haunted. His evolution from isolated warrior to worthy partner is heartfelt and satisfying.
• Tabitha Devereaux: Chaotic good personified. Funny, fierce, and endearingly weird, Tabitha brings light and bite to every page.

Their chemistry is instant, but their connection takes time—and that’s what makes it so compelling.
