Belonging nowhere, the best at what she does, love is the only thing that can bring this Guardian to her knees.

She was born half vampire. Half bloodmate. A half-breed, belonging to neither world but protector of both. Carissa Morrisroe chose to become a Guardian, and she's turned out to be one of the best. Cold as any other Guardian, she's a natural with killing. Nothing can bring her down. Nothing, that is but one simple thing-love.

Rage is nothing more than a killer. Raised with not one kind hand, it's no wonder he feels nothing for no one-or so the world thinks. However, when he meets the one and only female Guardian on the battle field, buried emotions start to emerge.

Enemy-savior-lover? Which will they be? It's a question that Carissa asks herself as she fights the pull. It's a question that Rage is tired of asking, but when fate knocks them both down hard, they get their answer and with it, a vengeance no one sees coming.
