"Not your usual Vampire romance story"

Amanda's an accountant and thinks she just wants a quiet life without any excitement. The only problem is her family. She has a twin sister who's a Vampire hunter, another sister who's a Voodoo priestess, and the rest of her sisters and her mother are usually busy making potions and casting spells.

Her Vampire-hunter sister asks Amanda to go let her dog out. Next thing she knows she's waking up handcuffed to an unconscious gorgeous, blonde man. Kyrian's a Dark Hunter. His job is to protect humans from those who not only kill humans but also take their souls.

This is the second of Ms. Kenyon's books I have read and I really enjoyed it. At first I wasn't too sure about a book with Vampire hunters, Voodoo priestesses, and such, but I was quickly pulled into the story. Kyrian's a perfect alpha hero and I thoroughly enjoyed the developing relationship between the two main characters. I can't wait for the next book from this author!

Summary

Dear Reader:

Have you ever wanted to know what it's like to be immortal? To journey through the night stalking the evil that preys on humans? To have unlimited wealth, unlimited power? That is my existence, and it is dark and dangerous. I play hero to thousands, but am known to none. And I love every minutes of it.

Or so I thought until one night when I woke up handcuffed to my worst nightmare: a conservative woman in a button- down shirt. Or in Amanda's case, one buttoned all the way up to her chin. She's smart, sexy, witty, and wants nothing to do with the paranormal--in other words, me.

My attraction to Amanda Devereaux goes against everything I stand for. Not to mention the last time I fell in love it cost me not only my human life, but also my very soul. Yet every time I look at her, I find myself wanting to try again. Wanting to believe that love and loyalty do exist.

Even more disturbing, I find myself wondering if there's any way a woman like Amanda can love a man whose battle scars run deep, and whose heart was damaged by a betrayal so savage that he's not sure it will ever beat again.
