Mario fears his career is all but in the toilet. His tumultuous past has left the tenor emotionally unstable and musically erratic, and his present penchant for cheap sex and cheaper beer is threatening to put the last nail in his professional coffin. When he meets Philippe, the young operatic superstar, on the first day of rehearsal, he finds in him not only a mate but a best friend, and he begins to believe his luck is changing. But Phillipe's exceptional musical ability is not his only defining characteristic. He represents a new generation of vampires who can harness the power of musical expression. Can Mario learn to deal with his troubled past and handle the new powers his mate has given him, or will he succumb to the darkness that threatens to take his life?
Note: Each book in this series features a different romantic couple. Even though the Songmates collection by Rayna Bradbury shares an external story arc with the Dreamcatcher collection by Ellen Ginsberg, each series can stand alone.
