Butch O'Neal is a fighter by nature. A hard-living former homicide detective, he is the only person ever allowed into the Brotherhood's inner circle. And Butch wants to go even further - to go to war with the lessers. He has nothing to lose. His heart belongs to a vampire, an aristocratic beauty who is absolutely not on his level. And if he cannot be with her, then at least he can fight shoulder to shoulder with the Brothers... Fate curses him in everything he wants. When Butch sacrifices himself to save a vampire civilian from the lessers, he becomes prey to the darkest forces in this war. Left for dead, he was found by pure chance, and the Brotherhood asks Marissa to bring him back, although even her love may not be enough to save him...
