knows he's there, watching. She longs to feel his touch, yet knows this cannot
be--for the man of her dreams isn't much more than a dream himself. Alard has found love with Raya, a strange creature of darkness who lives with vampires. He longs to make love to her, but there is one problem: Alard has no body.
The vampires offer a solution, and for the first time in Alard's life, he learns he might gain flesh. But will the vampires live long enough to unite the unlikely lovers? For someone is hunting them, and this looming danger threatens not only to shatter Alard's deepest wish, but to end Raya's very life.
