Author's Note

Emmaline Tepes never expected to become the Guardian and protector of the young Richter Belmont, but she's made it work. Over the years she's watched over and guided him, mentoring him into a fine vampire hunter worthy of his family name.

When Revolution sweeps across France, Emma must investigate a rising new threat to save her family and the Belmont she promised to protect. Things take a shocking turn when she makes a terrible discovery from her past, one that will shatter her foundation and make matters personal.

Yet, even in darkness there is light, and perhaps love can truly conquer all.
