Review Summary


Amber Quill Press, Dec 2003
ISBN 1592791778

In 1800 the three preadolescent children serendipitously creep towards the house of the hermit Mr. Mikhailovich, rumored by some to be a vampire. Though eight years old Angelina would prefer to skip this test, her companions Kevin and Josh insists she must complete the quest if she wants to join their club. The mysterious stranger catches Angelina and warns her to never come back but whispers “someday”.

Fifteen years later, Angelina has erotic dreams of the alluring tall dark and handsome man she met on that initiation trek, which is why she has had five London seasons without a match. In her sixth season, Count Roman Ivanovich meets Angelina, but she knows he is the living flesh of her dream man. Roman has patiently waited for his beloved to mature. Now he wants Angelina to willingly turn into his beloved vampiress for an eternity, but he must keep her safe from a vampire hunter who has no scruples and would use a young woman as an expendable pawn.
