Product Description
This version is out of print.
Kismet Knight, PhD, doesn't believe in the paranormal. She especially doesn't believe in vampires, but she begins to wise up when she is introduced to a handsome man named Devereux who claims to be 800 years old. Kismet doesn't buy his vampire story, but she also can't explain why she has such odd reactions and feelings when he is near. Then a client almost completely drained of blood staggers into her waiting room and two angry men force their way into her office, causing her to consider the possibility that she has run afoul of a vampire underworld. Enter FBI profiler Alan Stevens, who warns her that vampires are very real, and one is a murderer--a murderer who is after her.

Cindy (USA: NV) (2009/06/06):
Extremely good read. An absorbing look at vampires and vampire society through the eyes of a non-believer, a psychologist who keeps trying to help the 'delusional'. As she is sucked [:)] further in she keeps clinging to denial but is finally forced into acceptance. The pace of the book - which includes an XFiles-style FBI agent, multiple murders, mind control, rabid fanatics, magical elements, the rise of Evil, politics played as a blood sport and lots of vampires and those who love/hate/fear them - prevents anyone from sitting down and having the kind of life altering discussion the situation deserves. And then there is Devereaux. He's waited 800 years to see the woman of his vision and she arrives just when someone wants to use her as a bloody [literally] pawn against him. He must protect her. He must protect his people. But evil is on the rise and it wants him... If you're looking for Ward or Adrian style [armed and dangerous] vampires you won't find them here. Nor will you recognize any similarities to Sands or McAllister [we're just people with a few odd habits] vamps. LH's spin on vampires is unique in my experience. I look forward to the sequel. Kismet Knight, Vampire Psychologist
