Description:

Newly vamped Sarah Dearly wants her normal life back, but fate is fighting against her. She tries to get a regular job and gets staked in the interview, only to be rescued by a masked vampire who calls himself the Red Devil. Then a wallflower-turned-witch curses her, making her a bloodthirsty, sun-allergic nightwalker--the worst vampire there is. As if all that weren't enough, she can't get married because her 600-year-old boyfriend, Thierry, is in a centuries-long marriage of convenience he can't escape.

As Sarah's nightwalker tendencies make her more dangerous, even to those she loves, she'll have to counteract that curse, unmask the increasingly intriguing Red Devil, and get a commitment from her man. But if that's what it takes to secure her happiness, Sarah is ready...even if it means embracing her inner vamp to do it.

From Booklist

Sarah Dearly has been a vampire for only a couple of months, and life is returning to normal. Well, as normal as it can be. She’s jobless and her master vampire beau, Thierry, is still married to (but separated from) his sire. But things are looking good with a job interview, her high-school reunion, and the chance for annulment. Too good, it turns out, when suddenly her contented, normal life goes very bad. The fourth in Rowen’s series bears the hallmarks of her smartly written chick-lit paranormal romances but takes a pivotal, darker turn as Sarah must finally embrace her inner vampire. --Nina C. Davis
