There are far worse evils than jazz and lipstick...

By day Allegra Chase lives among the artists and eccentrics of 1920s Greenwich Village in search of adventure. By night she haunts the city's back alleys and seedy speakeasies driven by a more primal hunger. Here amid the glitz and unrestrained morals of jazz-age society even a vampire can fall prey to the temptations of the flesh. One look into the golden eyes of the dashing Griffin Durant and Allegra knows she's not dealing with just a man...

Though their kind have been enemies for centuries Griffin has never encountered a vampire as independent uninhibited or eager for his touch as Allegra. Yet their newfound desire is threatened by a jealous vampire master and a race war seems inevitable. Griffin and Allegra must struggle to stay out of harm's way--and hold on to their dream of an eternity of passion.

Master Sorin de cu Luna is a Draconian warlord. Harsh and cruel, with a thirst for blood, the Draconians have taken over the lands and enslaved the human occupants. Born with varying traits and raised among humans, Sorin has come to loathe some of the more depraved Draconian practices, and hopes for a different future between the two races. Matters become even more complicated when he’s summoned to the Draconian Overlord’s wedding and falls for the one human woman he was sent to tame.

Alexandreina de cu Soare is the last of her human bloodline. Born into captivity, she is a prisoner in the Overlord’s castle. Fiercely loyal to her people, she endures what she must to give them hope for a better future. When she’s given to a visiting emissary, her hope falters. There can be no faith in the brutal hands of a Draconian. Until she meets Sorin and realizes that hope can come in the most surprising and pleasant form.

Consumed by the heat of their passion, Sorin and Alexandreina find it difficult to hide their bond. Their union angers the Draconians, and the humans want to use it to their advantage. Thrust into a conspiracy to assassinate the Overlord, Alexandreina must use her relationship with Sorin. If Sorin can’t be turned against the Draconian rule, than she is to seduce and kill the Overlord herself or her people will be slaughtered in the impending civil war between Draconian clans.
