Kylie was twenty-three when she died. She wakes as a vampire under the protection of Vincent, an ancient and controlled man who believes survival depends on obedience, secrecy, and rules he refuses to fully explain. Hidden from the world, Kylie is trained in isolation while struggling with the loss of her humanity and the quiet fear that Vincent is secretly protecting her. But the vampire world doesn’t stay quiet. As Kylie begins to form an uneasy family bond with Vincent, she uncovers a society beneath human life, ruled by councils, bound by secrecy, and threatened by forces that don’t follow the rules. Rumors of strange deaths and a dangerous human drug point to something far worse than rogue vampires. Caught between protection and freedom, and a growing attraction to dangerous vampire Selene, Kylie must choose whether to stay sheltered or step into a world that will never be gentle to her. Because surviving as a vampire isn’t just about strength. It’s about choosing who you’re willing to become.
