On the night of the Equinox, a devil's moon pierced the treetops, casting silver light into the clearing.

A gypsy curse in 1761 dooms the McGovern family. The demon Asmos is called forth and each woman in the McGovern line will never be allowed to enjoy true love. The demon will kill the lover with the woman's hands.

Damien is a demon hunter and vampire that wants to help Emma McGovern fight the demon Asmos. Damien's brother Nickolai is aligned with the gypsies and wants the demon to come forth in Emma and cause destruction.

Emma does not know her family history. She was scarred as a child and has spent most of her life cloistered in Wolvesrain, her ancestral home.

Damien is strangely drawn to Emma and finds that he must do everything he can to save her and himself.

A decent storyline that weaves magic from present day and the 1700's. Of course Damien makes a few missteps that hinder his relationship with Emma. There were a few other characters that I assume pop up in future books. Or at least I hope so that I can be reacquainted with the Cadre.
