Part of Midnight Breed, book 15
First published 2018
Aric Chase has trained his whole life to join the Order like his Breed warrior father. He needs just one successful mission to earn his place in the battle against Opus Nostrum. His rare daywalking ability sends him to Montreal, where he meets his partner: Kaya Laurent, a tough Breedmate recruit who grew up on the city's harsh streets. Kaya desperately wants to prove herself worthy of the Order, the first real family she has ever known. She welcomes this crucial assignment, even if it means working with an arrogant Breed male who carries Order royalty in his bloodline. Their forced partnership ignites a passion that threatens their focus. Then Kaya's past emerges from the shadows, demanding her loyalty. She faces an impossible choice: protect a dark secret that could destroy her dreams of joining the Order, or reveal a truth that might shatter Aric's trust and lead their enemies straight to the team's door.
