A Slayer sworn to justice. A girl with fire in her blood. And a darkness rising that could burn the world to ash.
Kari's life was already unraveling when the monsters showed up.
Now hunted by creatures straight out of myth, she's rescued by a gorgeous, brooding immortal with a blade in one hand and a grudge in the other. He claims she's not just some ordinary woman-she's the last descendant of a powerful bloodline, tied to an ancient war between light and dark.
Xander is a Slayer, a warrior devoted to the goddess of justice. He's spent centuries killing monsters like the one that marked Kari. But saving her? That was never part of the plan.
Thrown together by fate, Kari and Xander must stay one step ahead of the enemy chasing them both. And the longer they run, the harder it gets to deny the heat between them.
