Sandra Dee Daniels is a vampire's worst nightmare. Sure, she couldn't get up to five-six in the highest heels money can buy--not that she ever wears heels. But the monsters in her past and the stake in her boot are enough to keep most bloodsuckers interested in staying undead out of Baton Rouge. But there are changes afoot on her turf. Rumor has it a Born Master is in town--a vampire so powerful he can make the streets run with blood. And there's a new face in Dee's dive bars and alleyways--Simon Chase, a strong, sexy shadow with a haunted past of his own. Simon knows a lot about the dark side of Dee's work because Simon also knows a secret that will change Dee's life--if she can live long enough to uncover it. Contains mature themes.
