Isolated, different, he puzzled out how his brand of magic worked on his own. When he's finally, finally sent on a solo mission, he vows to make the most of every single moment of freedom.Fleeing the tide of doom wiping out humanity, Amanda and her family escape to a remote corner of California, where they eke out a hardscrabble existence.

Captured by the undead, she's about to join their ranks when Ned shows up.Attraction ignites-hot, urgent, delicious-but celibacy may well be the price of Ned's magic, and he can't risk his power.
