A Masterpiece in Blood

Nicole is on the run from the Wake, a shadowy supernatural organization. She is trying to follow the last artistic clue her mother left behind, which she hopes will reveal the truth about her mother's death.

Kyan stays inside the Wake, keeping up the act of a loyal Empyreal assassin. His feelings for Nicole and the mate bond between them have shifted everything he once took for granted, and he hides that from the people he serves.

The two are fated mates, kept apart but set on reuniting. Their search leads them to the most powerful vampire in England, to ancient Celtic treasures and to lost Druid sites. This is the sequel to The Temptation of Magic, and it continues the paranormal romance begun there.

The Wake watches everything, and the Wild Hunt is beginning to stir. Each step brings Nicole and Kyan closer to the dark secrets at the root of the organization, and the price may be themselves, each other and everything they love.
