As an agent with the Logistical Unit of Specialized Talents, Elena Cabot's primary mission is to use her abilities to solve crimes against humanity that government agencies can't. But when she joins forces with the confident, sexy, and powerful Tavius Zolan in a race against time, terrorists, and a centuries-old vampire threatening everyone and everything she holds dear, she finds herself on a mission to protect her heart. Providing security for his family's weapons research and development agency can keep a man on his toes, especially when a portal is opened between Tavius's realm and Earth. But he's about to encounter a mission that will call on every ounce of power and brains he possesses even as it stirs his blood and libido for a delectably lustful Earth-realm agent.
