As night falls, Claire Roth flees, driven from her home by a fiery threat that seems to come from hell itself. Then, from out of the flames and ash, a vampire warrior emerges. He is Andreas Reichen, her onetime lover, now a stranger consumed by vengeance. Caught in the cross fire, Claire cannot escape his savage fury--or the hunger that plunges her into his world of eternal darkness and unending pleasure.

Nothing will stop Andreas from destroying the vampire responsible for slaughtering his Breed brethren . . . even if he must use his former lover as a pawn in his deadly mission. Blood-bonded to his treacherous adversary, Claire can lead Andreas to the enemy he seeks, but it is a journey fraught with danger--and deep, unbidden desires. For Claire is the one woman Andreas should not crave, and the only one he's ever loved. A dangerous seduction begins--one that blurs the lines between predator and prey, and stokes the flames of a white-hot passion that may consume all in its path. . . .

One of Mom's paranormal books ready to travel out in the Vampire Book Box.

This book rode to the end of the line in the Vampire Bookbox. I read one of the other books in this series and found it entertaining, so I'll give this one a go too.

I read ninety-odd pages of this book and gave up. The writing style just isn't doing it for me and I'm not buying the characters' romance. I kept getting distracted and doing other things, and finally decided that when I'm setting a book down to check my work e-mail for something more interesting, it really isn't my cup of tea.

Hopefully the next reader will be a better match!

One of the starter books for the Vampire Bookbox

I see one of Mom's books is back in the box so I'm selecting it from emmejo's Vampire Bookbox.
