I  put this book off till the end, I wasn't looking forward to reading it due to the fact that this is Konrad's story. Konrad was always the instigator, the one character who made you want to yank his hair out and chuck him into the middle of rush hour traffic. So it is with great humility that I bow down to the greatness of Marie Treanor's writing and storytelling ability. She took an awful character and made him more human and sympathetic.Konrad is one of the strongest hunters in the Vampire Hunter Network, he entered the Hunter training facility to try to regain his confidence. When he was young he walked into a nightmare, vampires killed his parents and almost killed him. But instead of letting fear rule him, he chose to become a dedicated Hunter and eliminate a threat that ordinary humans didn't even know were out there. He made good friends and developed a strong network of people who were determined to eradicate the evil vampires. But since the "awakening" of the Ancient Vampire Saloman and a new agreement with the Vampires, the Hunter Network has lost there way. Only Konrad has what it takes to destroy Saloman and his evil heir. No matter what it takes, he will rid the world the biggest evil out there. But Konrad never thought he would fall in lust with a sexy vampire seductress Maggie.Maggie has always tried to live her life honestly and quietly, she has a few good friends and she tries to stay under the radar as much she can. Unfortunately for her, vampires and hunters are determined to drag her into the middle of the latest vampire/Hunter mess. Each side wants her to choose them to align with, but instead of going with her head she listens to her heart; and her heart picks Konrad. Even as she agrees to work with Konrad, she knows that he won't hesitate to stake her once she is no longer useful to him. But Maggie is tired of playing it safe, she is tired of being alone, even if it means she will die at the end of her adventure at least she will have finally allowed herself to find love.As Maggie and Konrad struggle to hide their deeper feelings for each other they also realize they are at cross purposes. Neither one is willing to compromise there integrity and their commitment to the cause. But only one side can win, and the loss might not just be of a goal, but one of them may lose their life.Join Konrad and Maggie as they push the boundaries of love and sexual attraction. Sometimes winning isn't everything, but sacrifice is the only thing you can do for the one that you love.*ARC received from talented author and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review*
