Octavian Korvich's was at his wits end. Even as one of the most powerful vampires alive his human donor dared to betray him. What he needed was filler—someone just to curve his vampire lust until he found a suitable donor. A chance encounter with a chocolate beauty shows him that feeding his thirst isn't all he longs for.

Years of waiting to be selected on the donor system leaves Nyla Jordan dejected. Humans don't want her; vampires don't either. She's ready to give up when a dark haired, chiseled jawed vampire shows up at her door.

Passion's fly when Octavian takes Nyla for his short term needs. Though it was supposed to be temporary, he starts to realize he can't roam the earth forever without her.
