Killian longs for his Angel.  When once they were lovers and inseparable, they are now on both sides of a great chasm that keeps them apart.  Killian thought he had to compete with the god that Angel works for and so he let James convince him that the only way to stay with Angel forever would be to change into a vampire.  But he kills, and Angel is now his enemy and has to hunt him down.  He desires one last night with her, one night of passion before one of them ends the hunting game.  He manages to capture her one night and takes her to his secluded cabin.  Angel cannot deny her traitorous body that calls to Killian.  It saddens her deeply that they no longer can share their lives as before, but Killian made a decision and the end must undoubtedly come.  Is there no hope? 

Although this story is quite short, L. Shannon draws her reader into a dark world of vampires and demons, passion and sex, lust and love.  She writes multi-dimensional characters that leap off the pages.  Killian is the perfect tortured hero who must now face the consequences for the mistake he made.  He is a vampire of the darker sort who craves to kill and gives in to his blood lust.  Angel is a strong character who knows that fate must have her way, no matter what the outcome.  Her heart bleeds for Killian and the reader learns a lot about her from her introspection.  The reader will certainly be hanging on the edge of her seat wondering how these two lovers will sort themselves out.  This is a dark, gritty tale with a twist at the end that will give the reader a surprise and a shiver.
