Description

Once upon a time…the Blood Sorcerer vanquished the kingdom of Elden. To save their children, the queen scattered them to safety and the king filled them with vengeance. Only a magical timepiece connects the four royal heirs…and time is running out….

Nicolai the Vampire was renowned for his virility, but in a twist of fate "The Dark Seducer" had become a sex slave in the kingdom of Delfina—stripped of his precious timepiece and his memory. All that remained was a primal need for freedom, revenge—and the only woman who could help him.

In her dreams, a wanton vampire called to Jane Parker, drawing her to his dark sexuality and his magical realm. But for a human, all was not a fairy tale in Delfina. Jane was the key to Nicolai's memory…but exploiting her meant dooming the only mortal he craved.

    Really fell in love with these new characters. The plot is great, I love when I can't predict the next turn. Do I understand the next stories in the series will be by other authors? If so I hope they live up to this start!

    I have to agree with "poorly written". This book goes overboard on the sex theme to the point that it takes away from the actual story. The dialogue between characters is also very basic, and not so plausible. It's too bad, because the plot and storyline had a lot of promise. But I am going to continue reading the series b/c each is by a different author. I don't know the authors of books 2 & 3 yet, but I'll check them out on my way to book 4, by Nalini Singh. She's one of my favorites!

    I have read all of the "Lords of the Underworld" series and really liked them. This book however, is all about sex, to the point that it really started to annoy me. I like paranormal romance, but was underwhelmed by this. The concept had such good potential, but this book is poorly written, the sex scenes lack finess, and the way the characters speak to each other is not very plausible. I really think the author is a better writer than this. I will stick to the "Lords" series and not read anything else in this one.

    I knew it would be good, but Showalter outdid herself with this one. Can't wait for the brothers and sister stories to follow!
