This is another addition to the shapeshifer, witch, vampire series by J.C. 
Wilder. 

Alexandre Saint-Juste is head of the Council of Elders, as a matter of fact 
there aren't many of the council left. Thanks to an uprising of rebels 
killing most of them off.

Now as if that isn't enough to deal with Sunni a young vampire whose life 
Alexandre saved once has shown up. This is not what Alexandre feels like 
dealing with at the moment. Young vampires have started turning up dead in New 
Orleans. Alexandre needs to concentrate on that, not some young sexy female 
vampire that thinks she is in love with him. For one this certain female is to 
flighty for his taste, and two he has no desire to have a relationship anyone 
at this time. The last time he had one he got burned and isn't about to let 
that happen again. No matter how sexy she may be. 

Whatever it is that's killing these vampires isn't natural that's for sure. 
They seem to burning up from the inside out. Some have been burned beyond 
recognition. There is something evil afoot. Rumor is that Cassandra 
Alexandre's ex-lover, ex-council elder and now one of the rebels is back. Word 
is that she and Mikhail's revenant are in New Orleans yet Mikhail isn't. Rumor 
is Mikhail, head of the rebels was blinded in the put down of his last uprising 
against the elders. No one knows anything for sure except that he isn't 
around. So if Cass is back what part do she and this revenant play in the 
unusual deaths of the other vampires?

Sunni comes up with a plan to make Alexandre realize she is indispensable to 
him. Sunni decides to help Alexandre without his knowledge. Only all she 
seems to do is end up into trouble and Alexandre has to help her. Though Sunni 
succeeds at one thing, she was able to get closer to Alexandre. Whether he 
wants to admit it or not he is falling in love with this flighty and not his 
type at all female. So how is he going to react when he finds out that not 
only is Cassiopeia involved in the deaths but she has plans for Sunni?

Cass has the diary of Elsbeth. The diary has a variety of formulas in it. 
One of which is how to create a race of super vampire killing machines. Only 
the side effects are that they burn out very quickly. Literally burn out. 
Their hearts combust and then burn them up. Now Cass has infected Sunni in 
order to try and get Alexandre where she wants him. Alexandre must enlist the 
help of friends in order to fight her. But will they succeed or will Sunni die 
horribly like the others? Will the Council of Elders be no more? Will Cass 
win and have free reign? Or will Alexandre let Sunni die in order to keep 
control? What about his feelings for Sunni, will he give in? Will he find a 
cure, or is there even a cure available?

I am looking forward to reading many more to this series.
