Prepared to die...fighting to live.
Savard was in a mood to die, but when a human insists on saving his life,
death is no longer an immediate option. He knew of no species – human,
vampire, or demon – that could see him while in his invisible Spirit form.
Unique to this world, this woman's singularity was a danger to the entire
vampire race.
Waking behind bars in an underground vampire city was not how Sera
envisioned her night drive ending. She has come to expect nothing from
those who pass through her life, but this man, dying on the side of the
road, proves to be different. Savard fights to free her from tyrannical
vampire laws and to hide her unique abilities. What Sera doesn't
understand, is why he would fight his growing love for her.
Savard's haunted past threatens to tear them apart. Soon, Sera discovers
just how far her guardian is willing to go, and what he's willing to do,
to keep her safe.

Excerpt:
Savard watched her delicate jaw drop at the sight of his fangs. Never in
his long life had he shown a human what kind of creature lurked behind the
visage of a man. He waited for her scream, expected her terrified flight or
even a fainting spell. Instead of acting like a normal human, she just sat
there, taking it all in, processing, and then out of the blue, the minx
slugged him in the shoulder.
He groaned, not so much from her punch, but from stabilizing his core
muscles to keep his body upright. Through gritted teeth, Savard asked, “What
the hell was that for?”
“Give it a guess,” she huffed, not frightened, and certainly not shying
away. “You can speak. Just say what you are. You didn’t need to threaten me
with the pointy teeth.”
“Wasn’t a threat…won’t bite,” he mumbled. He knew he was behaving poorly,
but his body ached, his hunger beat a heavy cadence against his tongue, and
this woman had ruined his plans for a quick death.
His eyelids drifted shut, his head tilted back against the cushion. He was
getting worse. The pain was there, but not exactly excruciating, making it
easier to speak. His body was numbing out, going cold on the inside.
Sensation was slipping away, along with life.
“If you’re what I think you are, then…” her soft voice trailed off, as if
redirecting her question. “What can I do? Be honest.”
“Nothing you’d be willing to do,” Savard said, cracking one eye open to
observe her reaction, and when she shifted closer, he suddenly realized she
still held his hand. In fact, her grip had never wavered. Even after he’d
bared his fangs.
“Like letting you bite me? How can you be sure I wouldn’t?”
“I’m not asking.”
“But if it would help you…” Her delicate eyebrows scrunched together, and
she asked in earnest, “Would it help you? And would it hurt?”
His lips twitched, the beginnings of a smile that never fully formed. For
some reason, he found explaining the nuances of a vampire’s bite to this
innocent human amusing. “Blood heals. A bite is more pleasure than
pain.”
“I wouldn’t turn into a…”
“No.”
“When you bite someone…” Her voice was hesitant, the first subtle hint of
trepidation he’d found in her. “Do they die?”
“No. Life is precious,” he said quietly.
Deafening silence surrounded him and he closed his eyes again, the calm
lulling him. Several minutes passed, or perhaps more, and then he
unexpectedly caught her scent. The soft, delicate flesh of this woman had a
scent all its own, and he opened his eyes to see her leaning close to him,
her hand pulling that fluffy white-blonde mass of randomly braided hair away
from her neck. Savard growled, closing his eyes against the temptation, and
turned away from her.
“Why not?” she asked, her steady voice sending shivers through his battered
body.
Teeth clenched, he said, “You should have left me there.”
