Vampire prince Gabriel Redthorne knew better than to fall in love with a witch. Jacinda Colburn claimed his heart, then shoved a stake right through it. For that, he should end her life—brutally and without remorse.

But with old enemies closing in fast and a dangerous new evil terrorizing New York—an evil only Jacinda can stop—Gabriel has no choice but to trust her.

Risking his heart again was never part of the plan, but when a sneak attack leaves Jacinda on death's doorstep, Gabriel knows he's in too deep to turn back now. He'll do whatever it takes to protect his little moonflower. To stand by her side as they burn their foes to ash.

But if there's one thing life has taught the vampire prince and his passionate, fiery witch, it's this:

No matter how many enemies you destroy today, the ghosts of the past will always hunt you down.

And one way or another, they'll always make you pay.
