20-year-old Caleb Walsh hasn't had an easy life. After a life-altering car accident left him scarred inside and out, his life and education were put on hold to care for his ailing mother. Now, on the verge of being homeless after his mother's death, it's a dream come true when he is hired on the spot to be the newest team member of the most popular nightclub in town, Club Euphoria. The neon lights and loud music are almost too much for the quiet and shy Caleb, but it's the club's handsome and enigmatic owner, Marcus that cuts through the noise and captures his attention.
And after an intense, unfortunate encounter during his first night on the job, it seems he has caught Marcus's eye as well.
Caleb wants to follow his heart, but Marcus wants to keep him at arm's length "for his own safety", whatever that means. It doesn't matter, he's going to take charge of his life for the first time, even if it means charging headfirst into a dark and dangerous world where monsters are real and the cover charge is paid in blood.
