Locals whisper of monsters residing in the old theater house and in the woods surrounding Rosewood, but no one has ever seen one. Until sixteen-year-old, Temptation Falls moves to town. Destroyed by guilt for causing a fatal accident was not the most abnormal occurrence in Temptation's life. Revived from death by hideous creatures devoted to keeping her alive topped it off. Determined to overcome these horrific hallucinations, Temptation intends to live a normal life when she moves to Rosewood. There, she finds new friends and even starts dating the handsome Jerald Jenkins. Unfortunately, she cannot avoid the creatures forever, so when a strange man - who claims to be the King of the Rosewood creatures - develops a romantic interest in Temptation, her control over her "disability" starts to unravel. The creatures won't leave her alone. Going against her boyfriend's wishes, she investigates the town's dark history and unearths a century and a half old feud between a demon - who holds a strange resemblance to her boyfriend - and the mysterious king. The line between fantasy and reality collides. There is no turning back for Temptation as she finds herself linked to a ferocious war between the Jenkins' family and the strange creatures that saved her life. One of them is responsible for the young women who vanished, and now they both want Temptation. Positive she will die if she refuses to choose a side, Temptation wonders if her five minutes of death cost her to lose - not only her parents - but her cousins, friends, boyfriend, sanity - everything.
