Griffin intends to find his misunderstood, heartbroken friend a mate. He is sure that if Lance met the right female…if he found love…that he would be able to move on. To live again. Right now, the male is just going through the motions, a mere husk of his former self.
In a fit of insanity, a human female puts herself in danger trying to protect Griffin during a sparring session. As if. What chance does a human stand against a vampire? Sarah is courageous. Someone with honor and integrity. Not only that, she’s an absolute stunner. An angel. Perfect for his friend. Perfect for any male, for that matter.
Even though her gaze has never strayed from Lance since the start of The Program, he must first convince her that his friend is worth the effort. Then, he must convince Lance that, not only does he need a mate, but that Sarah is the female for him. Most importantly, Griffin needs to prevent himself from falling for Sarah whilst playing matchmaker.

"By the time this present group of stories was written I had passed through the cultural turbulence that engulfed nearly everyone s life in the wild, stormy period we know as 'the Sixties,' which for me had actually lasted from 1968 to 1974 or 1975. I had come through my own angry four-year-long retirement from writing in the middle 1970s, and was working again at a steady pace, though not with the frenetic prolificacy of the pre-retirement years. At the beginning of this period my personal life was still pretty chaotic, a carryover from all that Sixties madness, and plenty of new chaos was going to descend on me while some of these stories were written, but I was tiptoeing toward an escape from the various messes that were complicating my life, and by the time the last five stories of this volume were being written I was heading into the stability of my second marriage." -Robert Silverberg, from his Introduction Views: 56
