Shawna nimbly glided down the Avenue of Americas towards 45th Street in Manhattan. Traffic was as usual totally wild. The sounds of the city were at their peak as rush hour would soon take the city into high gear.
She picked up her steps as she would have to hurry to make her appointment with her attorney on time. She glanced at her watch. Late—she was going to be late. Story of her life, running and late.
She had to have some funds transferred to a bank in the Highlands of Scotland—her next stop. She had a cottage waiting for her there where she could hide and keep a low profile. She knew that sooner or later she would have to leave New York, because she had spotted one or two vamps lately than normal. Were they looking for her?
A tickling sensation sprinted up her spine and landed in the back of her neck. She knew before she looked--someone was watching her. She stopped and pretended to admire a pretty gown displayed in the shop window. At first, she saw only the yellow sun dress inviting all women to get ready for the summer only months ahead. She saw her own image reflected back at her and it was that of a young woman with thick blonde and at the moment windblown long hair. She made a show of sliding her hands over her tightly fitted black jacket, and pulled at its banded waist before she smoothed her hands over her blue jean clad thighs.

Stupid…he’s a vampire.
He was not like any vamps she had ever encountered…She eyed him speculatively, but before she could retort he had her shoulders and brought her in close. A sizzling, spidery electricity tickled the air between them… He bent to her face and whispered something that made her toes curl, not because she heard the words but because his low, husky, and sensuous voice rocked her hormones into place and made her body tingle.
Chase MacAdams is a hybrid with extraordinary abilities…
Roxie is an Indian beauty--a shapeshifter on her mother’s side, and hales from a little known tribe in the Adirondack Mountains of New York. Her father is an immortal—Scottish by choice and time.
Thus, a friend, Nikki Walker thinks and rightly so, that Roxie will help in the fight against WB and his vampire clan. They need help because the vicious vampire now has Count Dracula on their side and all of Europe is in danger.
However, they have given Roxie a difficult task. The team wants her to visit with Chase in the highlands of Scotland and convince him to join in the fight. He has already refused them, but Nikki doesn’t think he will refuse Roxie MacBran. And for all the wrong reasons he doesn’t…
