And that can only be done by resorting to drastic measures, like hurling herself into the arms of a stranger and requesting him to act her besotted fiancé.

And one of them is his bloodthirsty cousin, the lovely, spoilt and hedonistic were- tigress Rune who dislikes ordinary human beings sharing her beloved Dare’s bed and life. Innocent Tara is trapped between Ethan and Rune and Dare is hard put to protect her. Because it is night time, and vengeful Rune is on the prowl! And Dare has his hands full of poachers who respect neither man nor beast…
It had been horrible to even think that I could do this now. I couldn’t get her out of my head and that was the thing that puzzled me. Why was I letting a day walker, a very dumb one at that, get inside my head and make me regret decisions I would’ve never thought of thinking about twice? Why did I even care about her in the first place?
"No, I believe in you.” She whispered back.
That was all it took for me to hate her because it was easier to hate her than realize what was really going on inside of me—what I was really trying to hide. It was easier for me to hurt her and torture her rather than please her. I could deal with the pain of hurting her more than I could the other. Maybe I was selfish, but I didn't care. I couldn't care about a lot of things, and that's what left me vulnerable. It left me alone. It left me open to her. And as I stared into her unconditional eyes, I realized that maybe it was harder not to care about her.I gulped a huge amount of oxygen and then regretted it because it was tainted with her infectious scent. It burned its way slowly down my esophagus and I wanted to scream. She was a day walker! Why couldn’t I realize that? Why didn’t I want to?
Review from Jessica at "Satin and Lace Reviews"
While Damian has dark thoughts and actions (vampire – duh!), it’s easy to fall in love with him and cheer him on in his quest to make Aleana fall in love with him. The story is well written and the author’s descriptions bring the characters to life. Ms. Beckham created a unique story, which is a difficult task in a time when vampires run rampant amongst the bookshelves.
