"exciting vampire romance"
In Chicago, Dr. Alexandra Keller is a renowned
reconstructive surgeon who works complex cases with a
speed and accuracy that no else match. In New Orleans, M.
Cyprian offers Alexandra an outrageous sum of money to
work on his face; she refuses informing him to come to
Chicago as she has other patients who need her. However,
refusal is unacceptable; Michael's men abduct Alexandra
and bring her to his home. She is stunned by the hole
where his face is and he demonstrates how fast his body
heals so that a normal surgeon would not have the time to
operate. Alexandra reluctantly does repair his mutilated
face. Afterward he sucks her blood in rapture, but she survives;
the first human to do so in centuries. Feeling guilty
Michael knows he must protect Alexandra from his fellow
Darkyn and from their opposites the Vatican sponsored
Brethan. He heads to Chicago where his loyal servant
dumped the surgeon, not knowing that soon he will love
this mortal. This exciting vampire romance is action packed from the
moment that Alexandra is abducted and never slows down
until the final altercation. The story line contains
terrific characters that make the Darkyn seem like a real
species especially the jealousy of a rival Lucan.
Alexandra's brother Farther John adds depth to
understanding the heroine. Lynn Viehl writes a fabulous
paranormal tale that readers will appreciate each bite and
look forward to sequels. Reviewed by Harriet Klausner
