They promised forever in their ordinary, happy world. But forever now includes fangs and bloodlust. Annie and Lucas Redington were the couple everyone envied—mornings tangled in sheets, afternoons on the South Carolina beach, evenings filled with experimental pasta sauces, dancing and laughter. And the future plans? Perfect. Lucas had just landed his dream blood research position; they were finally building the future life they always wanted. Just two weeks orientation in California and then he’d be back in South Carolina leading a team. Then he vanished. When he stops answering her calls and texts, Annie flies across the country, terrified. She finds him … but he’s not the man she knows. Not anymore. Lucas has been turned to vampire against his will. Now the sun and beach is poison. Food is ash in his mouth. And the woman he loves more than life has the blood he craves most. He begs her to run before he rips her throat out—but Annie has never run from Lucas. Helping him means embracing a world she never wanted and maybe dying for it .Loving him means risking her life every time he breathes her in. Their marriage survived everything…Can it survive this? Book one in a spicy, fast-moving series for fans of True Blood, Santa Clarita Diet and Twilight. There is a cliffhanger.
