Succubus: A Love Story

Her touch kills, his saves the dying.

Are they fated, or forbidden?

Tempest Dunlap loves romance novels, but she knows she'll never have her own happily-ever-after. She is a sweatpants-wearing doula who homeschools her seven-year-old niece in suburban New Jersey. Unfortunately, she's also a succubus: Every man she's ever kissed has died. But Tempest is a good person who never intended to be a murderer, so she's sworn off love forever.

Then she meets Joel Tav, a gorgeous, gentle doctor who makes celibacy feel impossible. Tempest knows she can't touch him--or tell him his brother was the last man she dated and accidentally killed.

Meanwhile, a vigilante is hunting people with dark powers, and Tempest is next. Should she keep hiding in her safe, lonely life, or should she embrace the darkness she fears and risk the ultimate forbidden romance?

Maybe Tempest will get her love story after all . . . or maybe she'll become its villain.
