| When Sunshine is kidnapped by vampires, she is positive she won't live to see the dawn. Vampires are hunted down and destroyed, and as such, they don't take kindly to humans in their midst. After being knocked unconsious she awakens chained in an abandoned mansion across from an unfed vampire named Constantine. Constantine has been imprisoned by a rival vampire and is fighting his instincts to kill Sunshine. Of course, Sunshine is not just some naive girl off the streets. In addition to running one of the best bakery kitchens in the city, she also can transmute objects and do other small things. After escaping and freeing Con, who helps her return to her home, they agree it would be best never to see each other again. Of course, good intentions always fail, and after being poisoned, Sunshine needs Con to help her heal.
Discovering that she may not be the person her mother raised her to be, Sunshine plans with Con to destroy his rival, who now hunts them both. Finding out that her friends are not what they appear gives Sunshine much to deal with and investigate. | ||
