When my friend Dog claimed a female from the brutal northern pack as his mate, he started a war. I was furious with Dog at first. Then the northern wolves tried to destroy my bar in retaliation. This is my fight now, whether I like it or not. To defeat them, we’ll need everyone in Crimson to stand side by side—vampires, wolves, and witches. But the witches are distracted—struggling to contain an ancient evil hidden in their Victorian mansion. And the most powerful vampire in town won’t help me without a very good reason.

A god—who happens to be my mother—wants me dead. An unforgiving fae wants me gone at any cost and doesn’t care that we’re related. And I owe a debt to the city’s most dangerous vampire.

Tenacious and street-smart Zain Jatav has been forced to steal calor for her slumlord bosses for years. Finding the magic reserve might be her only key to freedom.

One man’s angel is another man’s devil. Well, it’s official. Strange times are afoot for mankind.
