________________________________________________

Many years have passed since Otherworlders, otherwise known as vampires, infected the ancient, narrow streets of gothic York.

Now humans and Otherworlders live side by side in uneasy peace. And Jessica Grant runs the council’s programme that ensures vampires aren’t sticking their fangs into anything they shouldn’t be. Or anyone.

But when a stranger turns up, threatening to destroy the fragile status quo, Jess has no choice but to team up with Sil. He’s the lust-filled, drop-dead gorgeous vampire who oversees the Otherworlders.

Jess despises him.

And she doesn’t mind reminding Sil of that. He hurt her once before and she won’t let it happen again.

But now a threat infinitely more dangerous than Sil’s fangs looms over Jess. Innocent lives will be lost if they don’t succeed. And even worse, Jess fears she’s losing her heart to Sil. Her worst enemy.

As they fight to save the city and Jess battles against her feelings, she begins to wonder. Is it her heart that Sil lusts after, or her blood . . .?

Reader warning: This book contains a relatable and feisty heroine, a drop-dead gorgeous vampire with a sky-high libido, incredibly British humour and an irresistible enemies-to-lovers love story.

Romance with a bite. Perfect for fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, What We Do in the Shadows, My Roommate is a Vampire, Anne Rice, Jennifer L. Armentrout, Jeaniene Frost or Darynda Jones.

THE SETTING
Over 100 years ago, a rift opened in an alternate York. A whole host of terrifying creatures came through, infecting the human population, and a terrible war ensued. By 1988, a peace treaty was signed, enabling the Otherworlders, as they were so known, and humans to live side by side. But the vampires sometimes take drop-dead gorgeous too literally. How long will so-called peace last . . .
