If you fancy a tormented vampire hero, they don’t come any more so (or any more alluring!) than Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark characters. These bloodsuckers with a difference will win you over as they have us. Néomi Laress, a famous ballerina from a past century, became a phantom the night she was murdered. Imbued with otherworldly powers but invisible to the living, she haunts her beloved home, scaring away trespassers until she encounters a ruthless immortal even more terrifying than Néomi herself.
To prevent him from harming others, Conrad Wroth's brothers imprison him in an abandoned manor. But there, a female only he can see seems determined to drive him further into madness. The exquisite creature torments him with desire, leaving his body racked with lust and his soul torn as he finds himself coveting her for his own. Yet even if Conrad can win Néomi, evil still surrounds her. Once he returns to the brutality of his past to protect her, will he succumb to the dark needs seething inside him?
A taste: Stay sane, act normal, he chants to himself as he strides down the rickety pier. On either side of him, water black like tar. Ahead of him, muted light from the bayou tavern. Stay sane… need to dull the rage. Until the endtime.
Inside. "Whiskey." His voice is low, rough from disuse.
The bartender's face falls. Like last night. Others grow skittish. Can they sense that I ache to kill? The whispers around him are like metal on slate to his ragged nerves.
… "Conrad Wroth, once a warlord, madder than any vampire I've seen in all my centuries."
…"A killer for hire. If he shows up in your town, then folks from the Lore there'll go missing."
Missing? Unless I want them found.
…"Heard he drains 'em so savagely, nothing's left of their throats."
So I'm not fastidious.
…"I heard he eats them."
Distorted rumours. Or is that one true? Tales of his insanity spreading once more. I've never missed a target - how insane can I be? He answers himself: Very f------ much so.
Fall into the shadowy world of the Immortals After Dark with A Hunger like no Other, No Rest for the Wicked and Wicked Deeds on a Winter’s Night. |
