"description": "With such novels as Queen of Dragons and The Dream Thief, Shana Ab\u00e9 has created a unique and vividly imagined world that exists side by side with our own\u2014a realm populated by a race of supersensual men and women whose power to change shape permits them unlimited acts of pleasure\u2026and ever-present danger. Now the survival of the dr\u00e1kon rests in the hands of a young woman with untried and unexpected powers\u2014and the powerful Alpha male she must break every dr\u00e1kon law to save.\n\nThe dr\u00e1kon are at war, surrounded by an enemy they have every reason to fear. The sanf inimicus are no ordinary human beings but the most dangerous of hunters. They\u2019ve sworn to exterminate the shape-shifters whose presence they now can detect, and they\u2019ve already claimed a prize prisoner: Lord Rhys Langford.\n\nIt\u2019s a blow the dr\u00e1kon clans feel from Darkfrith, England, all the way to the Carpathian Mountains of Transylvania. But it strikes no one harder than Zoe Cyprienne Lane. A mere seamstress\u2019s daughter, Zoe isn\u2019t even in the same league as Rhys. In fact, as an unwed male in the Alpha line, according to dr\u00e1kon custom, he owns her. So nothing could be more outrageous\u2014or personally ruinous\u2014than the mere notion that she might set out on her own to find her childhood friend...and first true love.\n\nBut the unexpected is exactly what Zoe intends to do. For years she\u2019s been hiding two extraordinary Gifts that have set her apart from other dr\u00e1kon females: the power to become invisible and the power to feel others\u2019 emotions. Now, guided by a link to Rhys\u2014his presence and touch as electric as if he were beside her in the flesh\u2014Zoe uses both Gifts to infiltrate the sanf inimicus. And for Rhys, whose time is running out, Zoe is his last lifeline to a world\u2014and a love\u2014he never thought he\u2019d regain. Only together again, hunter and huntress, can they save the dr\u00e1kon from the traitor in their midst who would destroy them all.",
