This is the story of Danger and Alexion. Danger was betrayed by her husband during the French Revolution. She lost her entire family and feels like she can't trust anyone else ever again. She is told that Acheron, the one man she does trust, if only a little, has been betraying the Dark-Hunters her world is turned upside down. There are other Dark-Hunters that believe Ash is dangerous to the world they all know. There is a tale about a man in a white coat that will come for them all.

Alexion, the man in the white coat, arrives to try to calm the uprising that is threatening to start. He is sent to Danger, who Ash believes will help him with the unrest. The last thing Danger wants is this man in her house or in her life. Alexion is impressed with Danger's fighting skills and strength.

They begin to work together, determined to save the lives of as many Dark-Hunters as they can. During their journey the two become closer and it scares Danger. Alexion is torn because of his loyalties to Acheron and he knows he can't stay with Danger after his mission is complete. She is destined to forget him as soon as he's gone, and he will always remember her and be tortured by the memories of their time together.

Danger and Alexion do their bests to try and save as many Dark-Hunters as they can but there are some losses, which greatly effects them both.

I enjoyed that we were able to see more of Simi and Acheron in their world but sometimes the Danger/Alexion love story fell flat for me. I didn't feel the emotions as much as I have with other pairings. It was nice, however; to get more pieces of the puzzle for the series. I'm anticipating reading the rest so I can make my way to Acheron's story - he is truly the reason I'm reading.
