A cursed vampire. A coven hellbent on revenge. And a human girl caught in the middle. After pulling the plug on her mother's life support, seventeen-year-old Chloe Madison is forced to live with relatives she hardly knows in a town that's barely more than a pinpoint on the map. She's determined to get the heck out of there as soon as possible-until she meets the enigmatic new guy at school, Trent Halstead. Something intriguing hides beneath his quiet self-assurance and hero hair, but he's keeping a secret, and now Chloe can't leave until she knows what he's hiding. When a rash of unsolved murders leaves two of Chloe's classmates dead, she begins to see disturbing hallucinations that concern Trent. Not only does he appear to be a murderous vampire, but a coven of vengeful witches have burdened his family with an eternal curse: no Halstead will ever know love. Desperate to find a way to break the curse, Trent knows his salvation will come at a cost-Chloe's destruction-and that's a price neither of them are willing to pay. But when one of Trent's old enemy's attacks Chloe, she must decide if her love for Trent is strong enough to withstand the danger. Only one thing is certain-if they can't find a way to be together, they will be destined to be alone forever.
