Valainah Arellano thought her vampire reign nightmare was over. Spoiler: it's not. Maverick's imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit, and Jarod? He's astral-projecting into her body and running the show like it's his own twisted reality series-while she's stuck watching.
Enter Tadeo, the shady-hot vampire with "I love you" eyes and "might be working for the enemy" vibes. Meanwhile, Santana's claiming the crown, Count Epoxy's putting Valainah through vampire boot camp, and Maverick might be trying to kill her.
Oh, and Jarod's not done. He's globe-hopping on a murder spree, using Valainah as his personal blood-tracking GPS-and she's next.
Valainah's over it. Over the possession, betrayal, and deadly drama. She's taking back control-with sharp fangs, sharp wit, and no intention of going down quietly.
Because when the vampire world turns on you, you fight back-and make it count.
