Now, I’m stuck between two worlds: the world of vampires, with its secrets and shadows, and the world I’ve always known, where nothing seems quite as normal anymore. To make things even more complicated, there’s Luna Winters—a beautiful, enigmatic vampire hunter who seems just as confused about me as I am about her. She might be the key to understanding my fate, or maybe she’s just another danger lurking in the dark. I didn’t ask for any of this. But as secrets unravel and enemies close in, one thing is clear: my life will never be the same. And the worst part? I don’t know if that’s a good thing… or if it’s going to get me killed.
