In a quiet town far from the city lives Jenna Sherwood, a girl nearing adulthood, with scars and secrets she has no one to share with. As her family has all but abandoned her, she goes through each day much like the last--spending time with her best friend and dreaming of the relationships and innocence she have lost. One day, Jenna's childhood friend, Alex Finch, moves back to town after many years, but their reunion may not be everything she has imagined it to be. As she finally begins to question the truth behind the most scarring event of her past, a dark figure appears and threatens to destroy what happiness she has been able to find along with any hope she may have for a future.
A series of killings has the Toronto Police Department in turmoil. The press has labelled the killer a "werewolf" and hysteria is on the rise in the heat of the summer. Detective Damien Knightley is the lead investigator, but he's got secrets of his own that need guarding in this very public investigation. Knightley is a vampire, and as the case gets more complex, what he discovers has him both baffled and worried. In the Northern Ontario town of Brighton, a visionary woman finds a stranger outside her door, and because he's near death she brings him into her home. In the wake of her kindness, dreams and visions expose things that terrify her. The stranger is a wolf, and history is about to repeat itself and explode in violent death if they can't reach Toronto and capture a renegade on a blood-hunt. As Damien recalls a love from a century ago, the threads of time are being pulled together, joining the past and the present. The beautiful woman he is falling in love with is bringing back memories he'd rather forget, and when the killer is finally revealed, there are more questions than answers in the identity?

Can they move past the feeling that they’re betraying a dead man by wanting each other? Or is Eric always going to stand between them?
