In a world where vampires have finally been crowned the apex predator, peace comes with paperwork, treaties, and strictly regulated blood supplies.
Humans coexist beside creatures that could tear them apart in seconds, comforted by laws that insist restraint is possible.
Dominic Castelo is living proof that restraint exists.
Four hundred years old, devastatingly handsome, and the CEO of one of Europe's most powerful corporations, Dominic is everything the vampire world reveres: ancient, ruthless, untouchable. He sits on thrones of money and influence, answers only to the Vampire Council, and inspires fear with a single look.
There's just one problem.
He's a vegan.
No human blood. No hospital rations. No indulgence in the very thing that defines his species. If the Council ever finds out, ridicule would be the kindest outcome.
Enter Jessica Mooncrest.
Blunt to the point of rudeness, painfully honest, and entirely unimpressed by immortal power, Jessica storms into Dominic's life as his new executive assistant-and somehow becomes the only human he trusts.
But she has secrets of her own.
In a vampire-dominated world, her rare form of diabetes makes her blood a whispered legend-a forbidden high capable of intoxicating even the strongest vampire.
She hides it well.
Until one drunken confession turns her into the most hunted human alive.
Dominic is forced to choose between maintaining his carefully constructed restraint or risk burning the world down to keep her safe.
Because loving Jessica means defying his nature.
Protecting her means declaring war.
And wanting her means resisting the one thing that could make him unstoppable.
After all-
what's more terrifying than a vampire who refuses to feed?
