'To die for' SUZANNE BROCKMANN

'Frighteningly addictive' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

'Delicious, erotic, and thrilling' NICOLE JORDAN

_____________________

As a trainee in the Black Dagger Brotherhood's program, Boone has triumphed as a soldier and now fights side by side with the Brothers. Following his sire's unexpected death, he is taken off rotation against his protestsβ€”and he finds himself working with Butch O'Neal, former homicide cop, to catch a serial killer: someone is targeting females of the species at a live-action role-play club. When the Brotherhood is called in to help, Boone insists on being a part of the effortβ€”and the last thing he expects is to meet an enticing, mysterious female who changes his life forever.

Ever since her sister was murdered at the club, Helaine has been committed to finding the killer, no matter the danger she faces. When she crosses paths with Boone, she doesn't know whether to trust him or notβ€”and then she has no choice. As she herself becomes a target, and someone close to the Brotherhood is identified as the prime suspect, the two must work together to solve the mystery...before it's too late. Will a madman come between the lovers, or will true love and goodness triumph over a very mortal evil?
