While Rhoan is an exalted guardian, a.k.a. assassin, Riley is merely an office workeruntil her brother goes missing on one of his missions. The timing couldnt be worse. More werewolf than vampire, Riley is vulnerable to the moon heat, the weeklong period before the full moon, when her need to mate becomes all-consuming.
