When a fortune-teller shows bridesmaid Lauren Crow an omen of her
gruesome death, she and her friends laugh it off as cheesy
theatrics--until women begin disappearing in the night.
Even as the streets become more dangerous, Lauren finds herself
lusting after a man who is himself dangerous--and quite possibly
crazy. Mark Davidson prowls the city by night armed with crosses
and holy water, in search of vampires, whose existence, he insists,
is real. He is as irresistibly drawn to Lauren as she is to him,
and not only because she's the image of his murdered fiancee. But
Mark's frightening obsession with finding his lover's killer merely
hides a bitter vendetta that cuts deeper than grief over a lost
love.
As Lauren wrestles with desire and disbelief, sinister shadows
lengthen over New Orleans, threatening her friends and foretelling
a battle that may spell the end of the city's uneasy truce between
the living and the undead.
This book was a roller coaster ride, thrilling, fast paced, and
action packed. I love the way Heather Graham writes fascinating
tidbits of New Orlean's history. The paranormal elements are
intriguing, the characters are very likable and the romance
captivating.
