Product Description

A deadly quest . . .

The sworn knight of an English lord, Gareth returns to the Highlands to pay a debt of blood to his uncle, the man who killed his father. But when his uncle's men murder his companions and leave him for dead, a mysterious beauty rescues him. Tender one moment, cruel the next, she bewitches him to his core.

A hidden desire . . .

Roxanna, a vampire princess, is sworn to break the curse that banished her kind to the dark. Awakened from her years-long slumber by Gareth's voice, she preyed on his attackers and kept him alive only to feed her hunger. But every night with Gareth makes her want him more, not just as a lover but as the soul mate she has never known. Together they will achieve both their dreams . . . or be lost to the darkness as one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark Angel, August 13, 2007

This review is from: Dark Angel (Bound in Darkness) (Mass Market Paperback)

Roxanna is a vampire. She was locked inside a bottle for protection until her curse could be broken. Her protector, Orlando is in search of the chalice that can free her.

Roxanna is set free by villains intent on murdering Gareth and his men. She kills them, but she saves Gareth, intending to feed from him to regain her strength and destroy her creator, an evil vampire named Lucan Kivar. Roxanna starts to develop feelings for Gareth though and Gareth believes Roxanna is his angel. When he discovers what she really is, will he still call her angel or will she become a demon to him?

Gareth and Roxanna become allies in their fight to set Roxanna free and destroy Lucan Kivar. Their love was destined to save them all.

Dark Angel is a story rich in danger, sensuality and dark secrets. Gareth's intense passion for Roxanna is romantic and chivalrous. Roxanna is torn between her love for Gareth and her dark side. Dark Angel has an intriguing plot with memorable characters that held me riveted to each page.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved this book but was lost, March 16, 2007

This review is from: Dark Angel (Bound in Darkness) (Mass Market Paperback)

I read the first book in the series, bound in darkness. I loved the first book and I discovered Dark Angel at my local Barnes and Noble. I immediatly began reading Dark Angel and about 1/2 way through the book, I felt extreamly lost and had no idea what was going on as new characters Siobahn and Tristan were introduced. Also, I kept reading about Isabell and Orlando being in Kivar's clutches. "WHAT?", I thought. Then I realized I stupidly skipped the second book in the series. With most series, you can skip certain books and still understand what is going on due to the backround information the author provides. In this series, that is not the case. I loved this book, but I wished I had read the second book first so I did not feel lost. A WORD TO THE WISE: read these books in order and please do not skip around. This series is worth it! ENJOY!

This review is from: Dark Angel (Bound in Darkness) (Mass Market Paperback)

I thought this was a great series of books. I had the hardest time getting my hand on this one since I came to reading them so late. The previous novel ended with Orlando and Isabel in Kevar's hands as he heads to the location of the Chalice. This location happens to be in the mountains/highlands of Scotland. On the way Orlando takes out his cut glass bottle containing Roxanna and drops her along the way in order to keep her out of Kevar's clutches. Just so happenly Gareth, along with his tutor and cousin, come across the bottle. The bottle gets open soon after and Gareth and Roxanne work through their own problems which seem to unbeknownith to them connected to each others.

Great series with a lot of action and likable characters. Sorry to see this is the last one.
