Shade is a demon with heart, but like his brothers he's harboring a dark secret, one that brings him, and his lovers, to their knees. As a Seminus demon he's destined to bed as many women as he can - unless he bonds with a life mate, a situation that his nemesis uses to great advantage. Determined to make Shade pay for a wrong he didn't commit, his evil brother Roag kidnaps him and forces him to bond with the one woman Shade never thought he'd see again. The one woman who has the ability to steal his heart. The one woman who will never understand the darkness that lives within him. Runa succumbed to Shade's charms a year ago, and she thought he was the perfect guy - until she found him in bed with two other women. In her haste to escape the mortifying scene, Runa found herself on the darkened New York City streets where she was attacked. Her attacker didn't kill her, but he did mark her forever - he was a werewolf, and now, so is she. To make their escape and race to warn others about Roag's evil plans, Runa and Shade must find a way to save themselves before their destiny, and Roag's vengeance, destroys them all.
