Forced to live off the misery of others through the collection of their sorrowful tears, vampire Cassandra Gray does her best to keep her ancient lineage a secret from her human associates, but when she meets one that stirs her heart, Cassandra risks everything she has to change her ways.
As one of an ancient line of creatures who gain energy from human tears, seventeen-year-old Cassandra offers sympathy to anyone at her school or the hospital where she works, but she yearns to be fully human for the boy she loves, even if it means letting her family down.
