To his surprise, Cole is happy to keep Brennan’s secret, and even seems to . . . maybe like him?
Soon Brennan begins to navigates this new love and comes to terms with his new vampiredom and everything starts to feel bright again.
That is until rumours of a missing student and strange blood-sucking attacks start to swirl around campus.
Brennan must quickly uncover the secret before all signs point to him.
If he fails, everything he has ever loved is set to vanish.
The stakes couldn’t be higher . . .
