Ambrose is only supposed to protect Ashley as head of security for the Drakes.

Even though she's rebellious and stubborn, something about the sexy, sassy human female calls to him.

He refuses to let anyone get close. He was betrayed centuries ago, and it almost destroyed him.

Ashley can't stand Ambrose. He's bossy, arrogant, and overly protective. Then why does her heart beat faster whenever he's near?

From enemies to lovers, Ashley falls head over heels. She knows he isn't staying, now that the job is done.

Before he leaves, they share one night of passion, and it changes everything.

Ambrose starts feeling the mating pull but ignores it. He won't be hurt again.

When a new, more dangerous threat emerges, he returns to protect her.

Will he be able to let his heart open up to his true mate, or will holding back cause reckless actions that bring danger to them all?
