The vampire is a weakness I never even knew I had, and when he whispers promises of immortality and sensual luxury, it's more temptation than I can handle.

However, as they say, timing is every thing.

My life centers around my job. My job centers around the Omega Lodge. And nowhere does it state that it’ll ever revolve around an Alpha. I’m comfortable where I am, and I intend to see this place thrive. But when our head Alpha and his mate want to throw a mating party for people to find their fated mates, I’m thrust out on an adventure with the raspy and overly Alpha Trevor Reluson. His scent annoys me. But I can’t help feeling this magnetic pull that’s driving me insane.

Well, there it is, another failed relationship. And right before Christmas time, too. After breaking up with my boyfriend, the only thing I want to do is get out of town and have some time to myself.
