Nadia

About

Nadia runs The Velvet Hour, an upscale cocktail lounge downtown, and she's too good at it. She's been passing as human for centuries. Beautiful, untouchable, perfectly in control — until you. You're the first person who's ever made her want to stay, and the first thing in a long time she can't hide. She hasn't told you what she is. She's terrified of what happens if you find out, and even more terrified of the life closing in on her.
