'You know Clint is going to be pissed at me for letting you stay in here after hours.'
Julian shrugged at Quinn's words. He draped his arm around the back of the chair as he leaned back to watch her wipe off one of the last tables. 'Don't care,' he replied.
She shot him a look as she tucked her rag into her apron and stepped away from the table. That look guaranteed she wouldn't be as cuddly tonight as she had been last night, but he was willing to have her annoyed with him if it meant keeping her safe.
Plus, he couldn't deny he liked watching her as she worked. She had her chocolate-colorer her pulled into a ponytail that accentuated the angles of her face. The faint scar running from her right temple to her eyebrow, and the one running from her bottom lip to beneath her chin, were more visible with her hair back, something deliberate on her part.
She saw her scars as displaying to the world what she felt were her sins for killing her uncle when she was first turned into a vampire. It didn't matter that her uncle would have died anyway or that she'd had no control over her actions. She wore those scars to punish herself for that night. He saw her scars as her battle wounds; ones she should be proud to wear as they marked as the warrior she was.

Résumé
For the past six years, Quinn has looked forward to the day when she would finally have her revenge against the vampire who slaughtered her family. What she never expected is for that vampire to walk into Clint’s bar and unleash terror and death on her small desert town. With more people dying every day, Quinn realizes she must delve deeper into her power than she’s ever wanted or dared to before in order to save her loved ones.
As new enemies and allies arise and good friends are lost, Julian will do whatever it takes to keep Quinn from the clutches of the vampire who stalks and torments her. Even if it means becoming the vampire he once was and swore he’d never be again.
