I’ve been told I’m beautiful to look at, but I’m a monster all the same. Barely contained. Terrifying now that the thirst is upon me. I’m a beast king, and that comes with its pros and cons. Big con: I have to take a bride. It’s built into my DNA. We all reach a point where the drive kicks in. I thought I still had time. I was wrong. I need to find her. The one. A vampiress whose blood will quench me. The hunt is on. If I don’t find her soon, I’ll be put down like a rabid dog, leaving my throne to my greatest enemy: my rival by blood. And that can’t happen.

Tide goes into town for a bit of fun: he can’t wait to get his hands on a human female. Even though his evening doesn’t pan out as expected, a bit of fun is exactly what he gets. He is shocked when the same female turns up on dragon territory as their new healer. Tide does not believe in coincidence. Who is she really and why is she here?

Typhoon doesn't have a mate. It's not for lack of trying, he just hasn't found the right person yet. The problem he faces is that he is desperate to have a baby. It's all he can think about. He's willing to do just about anything to make it happen. Natalie has always dreamt of going to college, of making something of her life before it's too late. The problem is that she's seriously cash-strapped. Her folks died four years ago, leaving her with debt and a little sister to raise. They're barely keeping their heads above water as it is.

Azure has resigned herself - just like many of the infertile dragon females - to being single forever. She's okay with that. Her feelings change when she comes into heat for the first time. Why now? Why her? Instantly, every unmated male in her tribe comes sniffing. They all want her. They want to mate her and to get her with child. All. Of. Them. Anger infuses every last cell of her body. An anger she never knew she felt. Snubbed for years and now they want her. Now they see her. They can all go straight to hell! Her king has other plans. The tribe needs offspring.

Her hands grip the steering wheel, and her foot slams down on the brake. There is a god-awful screeching noise as the tires skid across the asphalt. It's too little too late, and her vehicle collides with the large, furry beast, with a hard thud. The creature is flung from her vehicle, landing in a mangled, bleeding heap. Jackie can't believe it's even still alive. Despite the danger, her years of veterinary training kick in, and she gets to work to try to save its life.

The arrogant vampire kings have always proclaimed themselves to be the rulers of all the non-humans making war between the species inevitable. In order to win, it is imperative that the shifters steal the chosen human female. The alpha wolf will take her for himself thus weakening the position of the bastard kings. No heirs means no future for the vampires.

Every hundred years, tradition dictates that all eligible females in Sweetwater assemble for the choosing ceremony. Two vampire kings have separate territories within the surrounding countryside. Both are eager to pick their future brides. What a waste of her freaking time. Tanya is among the many women at the choosing ceremony. As far as she's concerned it's an outdated, sexist event and if it wasn't mandatory she so wouldn't be here. It's not important that the two males are ridiculously rich and handsome.
