With her pregnant sister due to give birth at any moment, Kefira Knight takes charge of controlling the beasties that come calling in an effort to thwart prophecy. She's got her hands full. Seems the supernatural population isn't finished with the gargoyle sisters and this time, Kefira has her own trouble with an ex-lover that dumped her centuries ago. Dagan knows Kefira holds a grudge, but trying to kill him is just her way of letting him know she still cares. Be prepared for another wild and whacky time in this sequel as a Succubus queen plots with a wicked Vampire to substitute their child for the child of the Blood.
