Alana Travers works in Housekeeping at Burgundy Peak, a club owned by Master Zigor. All the staff at Burgundy Peak are protected by Master Zigor. She has been a vampire for less than a year. While at work she goes to Room 110 and finds an extraordinary half-naked man there on the bed, Disdain. Disdain is an ancient alpha who is a master of mind manipulation. He and Zigor have known each other for centuries. Disdain teaches classes to the vampires teaching them dangerous techniques that heighten their powers. Memories of losses in the past haunt Disdain. He is also dealing with addiction. Alana joins Disdain's class and Disdain finds her irresistible. Will Disdain open up and let Alana into his life?

I loved the character of Disdain. He is a very complex, complicated, damaged, tormented, extraordinary ancient alpha. The relationship between Disdain and Alana is very unexpected and intriguing. Also, several other characters are beautifully written and very interwoven in Disdain and Alana's story. They are Master Zigor, Mel, Ash, Dechrista, Onan, Elizabeth, Rolon and Harold. My favorite of these characters is Master Zigor because of his strong patriarch/protector role. Also, Ms. Hill writes beautiful passion scenes. As a reader, I vividly share the couple's hunger.

This book is part of a series of 4 books by Ms. Hill. Now I must immediately read the other books in the series. I found this story to be mesmerizing. It is forceful, has extraordinary characters and great passion and I loved it. I recommend it to everyone.
