In the frost-kissed streets of Philadelphia, Mia’s world is upended by the arrival of Adrian, a brooding enigma whose smoldering glances betray a hidden flame. Despite his initial aloofness, Mia senses a simmering desire beneath his icy exterior, a desire that flares with jealousy at the mere sight of her former lover. Yet, as their fiery passion takes hold, Mia uncovers a startling truth: Adrian is not just a man of mystery but a full-blood vampire, haunted by a distrust of human women.

Can Mia’s tenderness melt away Adrian’s icy walls and guide him out of the darkness? Will their bond withstand the test of eternal love, or will Adrian’s lingering doubts shatter their chance at a forever romance beneath the twinkling Christmas lights?
