After a deadly bite from Morningwood's sexiest vampire, it's official—my bad decisions royally suck.

I thought living the dead life would finally land Vail and me on our path to a well-deserved happily ever after. But after countless sleepless nights, an insatiable appetite, and a growing list of enemies, I'm beginning to wonder if my set of bangin' new fangs was a mistake.

With my powerful skill set, Vail and I plan to conquer our enemies and save our worthy cause. But after a teeny-tiny taste of vampire bloodlust, I can't even save myself.

My fragile self-control hangs in a dangerous balance between naive, innocent princess and vicious, evil queen.

Who knew that when my heart stopped, I would become so … heartless?

I don't want to spend my time hunting villains and wreaking a royal havoc. But the never-ending battle for my royal blood leaves me with no choice. If I want a future at Bostwick, I have to put on my big-girl crown and embrace my newfangled role, stopping my enemies once and for all.

I don't need princess charms or rainbows and butterflies when I can easily crush the world under my wicked glass slippers.
