Rock star Michael Lynsay loves to hypnotize his adoring fans with his singing and moves, his darkness is rising up to the surface of his vampire nature. When he spots Jane Renan in the crowd he knew that she would help keep his darkness at bay for a little while. What he ain't know is that she is very old and in order for her to stay young looking she must do a spell once every ten years with the heart of a vampire. He might be her unintended victim but it's her heart that makes her take pause in what is right follow her heart and grow old or risk their love for her to say young still....
