In a Romeo and Juliet retelling set in modern Oxford, enemy vampires Tobias Osian and Alexander are pushed to choose between their families and each other.
Centuries after Vladimir Damianos stole Tobias's mortality and turned him unwillingly, Tobias is ready to bring down Britain's most powerful vampire clan by using Vladimir's son, Alexander, to infiltrate it.
Alexander has broken from his bloodthirsty father by protecting mortals instead of hunting them, and he falls for Tobias the moment they meet.
When a string of attacks rocks Oxford, Alexander commits himself to Tobias's safety, unaware that Tobias is just as much a monster as Alexander is and means to ruin the clan from within.
As that attraction takes hold, Tobias has to weigh the vengeance he came for against a love he never expected.
