"I'm afraid she's not looking for a game, lads. She's looking for me." He closed his hands gently over her shoulders and nuzzled her hair, his melodic baritone striking a pitch perfect note between rakish and sheepish. "And she's no lady. She's my wife." Sympathetic groans rippled through the crowd. It obviously wasn't the first time an irate wife had marched into the club to drag her husband home.
The sequel to After Midnight promises to sizzle and burn. Julian Kane is back in town. Once, as a girl of seventeen, beautiful, headstrong Portia Cabot saved the cursed life of the dashing vampire Julian Kane who marked her forever, then left to go in search of his soul. He returns five years later to find the enchanting young girl he left behind grown into a bewitching woman with a woman's heart and a woman's desires.
Portia quickly discovers that Julian's seductive and forbidden kiss can still make her crave the night and his touch. But the Julian who has returned to London is not the vampire she remembers. His fruitless pursuit of his stolen mortality has reduced him to drunken debauchery. And a recent spate of murders makes Portia fear that the man she has always adored may truly be a monster.
Julian knows he must drive Portia away but his passion and hunger for her grow more irresistible every time they touch. For years he has fought the temptation to embrace his dark gifts, never realizing that Portia's love may give him the most dangerous gift of all - a reason to live.
Julian froze in his tracks, mesmerized by the sight of that graceful throat. A throat that should have been as creamy and flawless as the rest of her, but was instead marred by the faded scars of two distinct puncture wounds. As Julian lifted his disbelieving gaze to meet the defiant blue of Portia Cabot's eyes, he knew his luck had finally run out. |
