It's been a year since Oasis stumbled away from Blessed Falls with wings carved into her back and too many scars to count.
Enter Laura, the mesmerizing stranger who claims to hear Oasis' heartbeat...
Laura is the most recent face of the eternal Count Dracula, ruler of the shadows, chimera of the Devil, and an embittered victim of libel. The Van Helsing Institute has been waiting for a glimpse of the dragon's underbelly, and eagerly approach Oasis for her help in a ploy to kill Dracula for good. But not every wound from Blessed Falls has cicatrized, and Oasis realizes she may be a danger to Laura-and to herself.
Yet no one is as dangerous as Laura-the first vampire, the Devil's plaything, and the person with whom Oasis finally feels human.
Oceans of time have passed since she last had a drink, and she will not let Oasis go easily.
