Love comes in many guises. Little does Rylee Wagner realize that her chance encounter with a stranger on the beach will turn her whole life upside down. Her heart goes out to Alex when she learns he's mourning the deaths of his wife and unborn child. Still, there's no denying the instant attraction between them.

Alex O'Donnell is immediately drawn to Rylee. She's young and beautiful. Her compassion for his loss is a balm to his wounded soul. But there are things he can't share with her. Like the fact the he's a vampire hunter, or that a vindictive vampire is responsible for the deaths of his wife and child.

Alex knows he should stop seeing Rylee. Every minute he spends with her puts her life in danger. But once he holds her in his arms, he prays that it will be an everlasting embrace.
