Mia may be free of the chains and vampires who held her captive, but the aftermath of what she endured lingers. Survival came with a price, and she can no longer stand the touch of another.

David never expected to find his mate, but now that he has, he'll do whatever it takes to keep her. Knowing she's traumatized by the abuse she endured, he's determined to help Mia trust him, even if it means resisting his growing urge to claim his mate.

As Mia's faith in him increases, their bond deepens. However, just when Mia believes she might find happiness, a danger she never knew existed rises and threatens to steal her hard-won peace.

Can they overcome the evil intent on tearing them apart, or will she once again find herself in chains?
