Cherry Stem (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780996962223)

I'd rather be undead than dust.

Feed, get rent money, erase mortal's memory-that's what I've stuck with for as long as I've been a vampire, but tall, dark, and handsome Detective Alex Marsden messes with my routine tonight, by being irresistible.

I end up falling asleep in his arms, and when I wake up to the sun singeing my skin, I have to tell him the truth about what I am. I still plan on making him forget, but things get out of hand. Fast. His latest case may have to do with my turning, and that's something I can't turn away from.

Young women are missing, the vampire council turns a blind eye to what may be a rogue vampire, and my annoying ex seems to be the only one on our side, as Alex and I uncover an unsettling plan.

I may finally learn why I was turned against my wishes four years ago, or I may end up dead.

This time, permanently.
