If she goes with Vlad, she becomes somewhat of an indentured servant, albeit a cosseted, protected one. If she doesn’t go with Vlad, she’ll be targeted by more vampires. Vlad comes to her rescue and offers her a bargain – protection in exchange for her services. She may even have a little foresight gift.īecause of her gifts, she is targeted by vampires who wish to take down Vlad, the Impaler, a centuries old vampire.

I was able to rustle up a free copy that Avon had sent to my house for a no risk read. Given that it was the start of a new series, I felt like I could safely enter the world without being too confused. I haven’t read you in a quite a while but many readers, including those in my “trust” circle thought this was a great story.

A mutual agreement for a one-night stand turns into a week-long adventure, and even after Lindsay returns home to Washington, Henry can’t stop thinking about her.Jane C+ Reviews Avon / Paranormal / vampires 9 Comments

She’s fiercely independent but also vulnerable and burned-out from dating the wrong men. A casual fling with a willing cowboy might be just what she needs, and Henry fits that description.ĭevastated after learning that his son isn’t his, Henry is in no mood to entertain ideas about starting a new relationship, but when Lindsay boldly introduces herself, he’s intrigued.

Lindsay has sworn off men until her son is old enough not to be hurt by them, but on a kid-free vacation to see her best friend married off, she has a chance to remember that she’s a woman with needs and not only a struggling single mother. Lindsay Miller and Henry Hammond aren't looking for love, but a pact to have a little fun together may turn into something a lot bigger… and last a lot longer than her vacation.
