Daisy O'Donnell has never understood why some women found vampires so fascinating. As far as she was concerned, there was nothing attractive about the Undead. But that was before she met Erik Delacourt at a popular nightclub called the Crimson Crypt. Though he is virtually a stranger, she can’t deny the attraction between them, or the strange bond she feels…

Erik is a powerful vampire, a fact he hesitates to reveal to Daisy. She doesn’t need to know he’s hunting the Blood Thief, a mysterious person draining the life from young vampires, and also responsible for destroying one of Erik’s friends. He prefers to keep her ignorant of the dark side of his life, feeling that by doing so he is keeping her safe from danger. Unbeknownst to Erik, Daisy is keeping a secret of her own.
