Synopsis

Two souls bound by love. Two monsters made by blood. One debt that can only be paid in ash.
********************************************************************
Ophelia Rosewood’s life ended the night her father died, not just from the cancer that ravaged his body, but from the shadow that slipped into his hospital room. Now, she is the "Key," a rare evolution in a world of ancient predators, hunted by the sadistic Strigon brothers who view her as nothing more than a vintage wine to be harvested.

Peter is the only thing keeping her tethered to her humanity. A simple hospital porter with a heart of iron, he has promised to protect her in this life and the next. But in the halls of the Strigon Manor, love is a liability, and mercy is a death sentence. When the scent of rosebuds and decay fills the air, and the line between protector and predator blurs, Ophelia must make a devastating choice. To save the man she loves, she must embrace the very darkness she fears.

In the war between the living and the damned, blood is thicker than mercy.
