Jillian Conrad never believed in vampires-until she was unwillingly injected with a serum that was supposed to act as a deadly poison to them. Now, tormented half-vampire Declan Reese wants her blood to destroy the undead kingdom. Unfortunately, the serum has also made her blood irresistible to all vampires-including Declan, whose desire for Jillian is more than mere hunger.

From Booklist:

Jillian Conrad was an average, workaday girl. The biggest excitement in her life was making the Starbucks run for her office mates. In a twist of fate, she misses the elevator, and her life is turned upside down. Held hostage in a standoff and injected with poison, she winds up the unwilling companion to Declan, who killed the scientist who injected her. He promises he can get her to a man who can help her, since no ordinary hospital will do. The poison inside her isnt meant for humans but for vampires, and shes just become a pawn in a secret war. Rowen sinks her fangs into the reader and never lets go in this fast-paced series launch that blends sensual romance and urban fantasy with ease. Theres plenty of moral ambiguity, and the relationship is hot n bothered between Jill and Declan, though temptation lurks in the wings with the vampire king. Great treat for those who like J. R. Ward, Katie MacAlisters Aisling Grey series, and Kelley Armstrong. --Nina C. Davis
