Deciding to attend a costume ball, Jane Walters, a beautiful yet shy young woman, finds herself entering the Victorian mansion known in town as Crimson Manor, a place that possesses secrets. She felt out of place among the others there until she caught the eye of the mansion's owner: Reginald H. Curry. Reginald had spent the last one hundred and sixty-three years alone since the death of the woman that he loved and had planned to turn into a shifter much like himself. Over the years, he had become cold, and distant towards women. His darkened look on life brightened up and awakened his passionate side the moment his eyes fell upon the curvaceous form of Jane Walters. Is Jane safe in the arms of Reginald? Or is her fate sealed deep within the walls of Crimson Manor?
