"A Great paranormal romantic thriller"
After a car crash which took the lives of both of her
parents, Melissa Danvers had accepted her duty to become
Ryder Latimer's new keeper. Ryder is a 140 year old
vampire and had been like a part of her family, the only
one to pay any attention to her. Still she couldn't help
resenting the responsibility that had been thrust upon her
so unexpectedly. She knew that she would never be able to
live a normal life, to find love and have a family of her
own. Every generation of Danvers had accepted the call. She
could do no less.
Melissa, like each keeper before her, is a physician. She
is responsible for seeing to Ryder's feeding, and recently
when a serial killer had kidnapped and badly wounded him,
she had seen to his healing. His lover Diana Reyes had
been there to supply the TLC (see Darkness Calls, Book 1),
but Melissa had no one of her own to comfort her. Diana's
sexy younger brother Sebastian had done his best to fill
in, leading to a unexpected night of passionate lovemaking,
but the two had carefully avoided each other since.
Sebastian Reyes is a bad boy computer whiz, a rebel in a
family of law enforcement officers. Like Melissa he had
lost his father. While Melissa had suffered
neglect due to hers being solely wrapped up in her dying
mother, Sebastian had suffered his father's constant
disapproval. With his father's death Sebastian had lost any
chance he'd had to prove himself worthy. He had been
instantly attracted to the stunningly beautiful young
doctor, but knew that she needed a hero in her life, and he
just wasn't hero material.
FBI Agent Diana Reyes is called in when a hospital break in
reveals the theft of one of Melissa's father's journals.
Knowing that privileged information regarding Ryder might
be compromised, Diana asks Sebastian to scan the remaining
journals against a future theft. Together he and Melissa
scour the texts for a reason for the burglary. What they
find reveals betrayal and leads to murder. While they
search passions soar, but will they find the killer before
it's too late? Will their feelings for each other survive
in the face of danger?
Danger Calls is another great paranormal romantic thriller
that will keep readers turning pages until the final word
has
been read. Look for Temptation Calls -- Book 3, which is
the
story of NYPD Detective Peter Daley, Diana's connection on
the force. (Peter plays secondary roles in books one and
two.) Side note: the storyline regarding Melissa's nurse
friend Sara helps to set up the next tale, so read
carefully.
