Beautiful night-shift gas station worker, Adelia, has a secret-she's a vampire. Her coworkers are safe, as are most of the regular customers. But this secret isn't just hidden from them; it's also hidden from the most important person in her life-or rather, her death-her handsome and very-much-alive boyfriend, Marcus.
Adelia longs to tell him the truth, but she knows he wouldn't understand. He'd run. And the last thing she wants is to turn him into something like her. But the walls are closing in. Marcus is asking questions, growing distant. If she loses him, she loses everything-her sanity, the last shred of kindness still tethering her to her human past. And if that kindness fades, something dark and destructive might take its place.
Adelia wants to save herself, Marcus, and her sanity. More than anything, she wants to live.
