"A must-read for lovers of vampire romances."
Kateriena Isadora Thomasina "Kit" Alexander needs a job.
After a disastrous marriage to a man who only wanted her
for her ability to support him through med school and
provide him with a home, and who left her the day after he
finished his education, Kit has gone back to school. She is
working on her PhD in mathematics and though she has enough
in savings to pay for the schooling, room and board, if she
lives frugally, she doesn't have any reserves. Since Kit refuses to go into debt, she has applied for a
research assistant position with the reclusive Nobel Prize
winner, doctor, and scientist Carl Roddenberg. Her
interview is set for 12:30 in the morning, an odd time, but
Kit wants the position. Since she has sold her car and
doesn't have the money for a taxi, she sets out walking
from her apartment to Carl Roddenberg's lab. Kit is almost to the lab when she notices two men following
her, one fairly close and the other a little ways back.
When she tries to run, the closer one attacks her and she
is forced to defend herself with her martial arts skills
and kill her attacker. The second man pursues her and she
escapes from him, fleeing into the building, using
abilities she doesn't understand or even believe she has. Dr. Rodddenberg tends Kit's wounds and asks her to come
down to his basement lab once she is through giving her
statement about the attack to the police. Based on the
samples Carl took from Kit while examining her and the
evidence from the security cameras, he realizes Kit was
attacked by two members of the community and that she
is a lycanthrope, probably feral, who doesn't know what she
is. Carl is attracted to Kit and knows she is interested in
him. He wants to act on the attraction but knows he can't
tell her anything about herself or the community he belongs
to -- she wouldn't believe him and would probably leave,
putting herself in danger. DREAM JOB is the spicy sequel to the vampire romance DREAM
LOVER. Ms. Walder continues to intrigue us with the unique
abilities of her vampires and lycanthropes, the challenges
they face and the use of medical technology to solve their
problems. Kit is a very strong heroine, she has a will to
survive and will do whatever it takes to ensure her
continued existence. Carl is a sexy and dominating man.
Together these two create a sexual tension that will keep
the reader glued to the book late into the night. This is a
must read for all lovers of a good vampire tale. Sensuality Rating: explicit, oral. Reviewed by Nicole LaFolle for Sensual Romance.
