When he takes her in his arms, she can feel his power. When he presses his lips against hers, she can taste his need. Saintcrow may be the most compelling creature she's ever imagined, but Kadie knows in her heart that he is also a man. A man who needs a woman. To want him, desire him, crave him. To be his willing prisoner--for all eternity. . ."A classic vampire tale of sensual, spine-tingling suspense." --Christine Feehan on Desire After Dark"A master of her craft." --Maggie Shayne"Ashley is a master storyteller." --Romantic Times
