"A thrilling and addictive adventure, this debut tackles all my favorite vampire tropes and makes them new again."--Kamilah Cole, Lodestar Award finalist and bestselling author of the Divine Traitors duology

"Then her red eyes are on mine, gentle, deadly. . . . She takes her time, kissing my neck. . . . I pull her closer, and I say, Bite me."

In the mists of the Scottish Highlands is a university where vampires study alongside humans.

Rebecca Charity is a vampire hunter undercover at the university, searching for the mysterious Book of Blood and Roses, a lost compendium of ways to kill vampires. If she finds it, she'll be one step closer to avenging her parents, who were slain by those creatures of the night.

But when Rebecca arrives, she finds something unexpected: a coffin. Her new roommate is Aliz Astra, scion of one of the most powerful vampire families . . . and the most beautiful woman Rebecca has ever met.

The maddeningly gorgeous Aliz is everything that Rebecca has always hated but also everything she's ever wanted, and now Rebecca doesn't know if she wants to kiss or kill her.

When one moonlit night Aliz rescues her from a vampire attack, she accidentally makes Rebecca her Familiar. Now they must work together to break the curse--but as they get closer to solving the mystery, Rebecca and Aliz get closer, too.

Can a vampire hunter ever fall in love with a vampire?

★ "[A] sexy and exhilarating debut . . . Summerlee's worldbuilding is skillful and immersive, taking the classic setup of a supernatural boarding school in exciting new directions, and the tension-filled relationship between the leads keeps the pages flying."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
