She stumbled to a stop. Gorgeous. She thought. No man should be that beautiful. His avenging angel look had been one of the numerous reasons she had thought her mind had finally cracked.
He had emerged from the shadows like a living nightmare wrapped in temptation, placing himself between her and the feral, bloodthirsty vampires. In a blink, they were ash, nothing more than gray and brown particles swirling through the air as he turned toward her.
Her breath seized. Her thoughts were scattered. Her body froze—but every inch of her tingled.
Their eyes locked. Time suspended. No sound. No movement. Just him and that stare, dark and smoldering. Then, slowly, the corner of his lips hitched into the sexiest, most dangerous smirk she’d ever seen, revealing the barest glint of fangs, and she genuinely thought she might faint.
Had she fallen? Had he caught her? Somehow, she had found herself in his arms, his body hard, powerful. And then, after countless breathless moments, his lips pressed against hers. The caress had been gentle, barely a whisper. A tease. A promise. It shot through her like lightning, setting every nerve ablaze.
And just as suddenly as he had come, he was gone.
Description:
Blood is sacred...
When a nest of
fledgling vampires arise in New Orleans and begin murdering
indiscriminately, leaving their victim’s bodies strewn across the
streets it doesn’t take long for the Under Realm Syndicate to respond.
Order and peace is priority among the Other Society and mortals must be
protected.
Ancient, powerful, and ruthless Cassian D’Amore exists
in shadow. As an Elite Assassin, he stalks his prey with strict focus
and kills with cold precision. Never has he strayed from an assignment
or allowed distractions to alter his course, but his sudden raw need to
possess the brave, maddeningly tempting human─who finds herself in the
wrong place at precisely the wrong time─threatens his millennia old
control.
Whispers circle of a menacing presence that has come to
New Orleans, but logical and practical Raelyn Bourchard doesn’t believe
the rumors until she meets soulless as stone, dangerously mesmerizing,
and brutally erotic Cassian. There is something strikingly different
about him. He is dark, daring, and mysterious. Raelyn craves his kiss,
his touch, and his secrets. Will succumbing to his predatory desires
make her another unfortunate causality in the battle that wages within
his strange supernatural world, or will her surrender save him from a
desolate eternity?
