Moonlight, Wine & Stakes

Eden Camden is having a very bad day. She’s just trying to keep the peace, but in a city thick with vampires, weres, unexplained apartment fires, and black magic, it’s hard to do. Security guard by day and demon hunter by night, she’s working up to her biggest challenge yet – and she might not survive this one.

The orphaned child who suffered the loss of her parents has grown up, and she’s become a Slayer. Her fabulously wealthy, sexy British guardian Elliot has provided for her, protected her, guided her over these last ten years. But now something has changed...and Eden is struggling to see why Elliot now heats her blood beyond anything she’s ever known, even as she wonders why he holds himself so tightly in check when she’s around. Then she finds out what he really is...and learns about real magic.
