No contest. Now, working for Alien Investigation and Removal, she's been ordered to capture the biggest, baddest warrior of all a vampire too beautiful to be real, with the abilityto manipulate time. Once the leader of the entire vampire army, McKell has been deemed savage and unstable, spurned even by his own kind.To McKell, humans should be nothing more than sustenance. Yet the petite, golden-skinned Ava is a fascinating contradiction vicious yet witty, strong yet vulnerable, lethal but fiercely loyal.
