Book Description

Release date: August 7, 2012 | Series: Mark of the Vampire (Book 4)

A Taste of Blood

Ever since his abduction by the Eternal Order of Vampires, Gray Donohue has finally found his true calling: vengeance. He will stop at nothing to bring his fellow Impure vampires the freedom they deserve. Now if he could just release his primal need for the beautiful vampire who saved his life—and rules his thoughts and desires…

After nearly killing the senator she was assigned to protect, Dillon is now in mortal danger. The jaguar within her has been unleashed, and she can no longer control it. Sex is the only thing that can tame her shift. And Gray is the only man who can make her surrender to a passion strong enough to overpower her inner beast. But she doesn’t want to surrender—she wants her life back. Because she is determined never to belong to anyone, especially not Gray—the male whom destiny claims is her mate…

From the Author

Dear Readers,
You know who I am. The veana who refuses to be contained, refuses to be ruled, refuses to be loved. The veana who has from an early age been different from her kind, a cast off -- and perhaps reveled in it a little too much. I was taken in, true. It was a better fate than most of my mutore brethren received. Most were thrown out like trash or killed before they could take another breath. But in that saving grace that was my adoption, I grew to see the ugly truth in others.
It is a question I ask myself often: Would it have been better to go the way of my mutore brothers and sisters? A quick and shallow grave... Or was I saved for some reason? For some one?
Gray...
He comes to mind, has since the day we met at the Romans', far too often and intensely. It is as though my body, my...beast, recognizes him. I have never been able to deny my beast when it scratches its desire on my unbeating heart.
But will he accept me when he knows the truth of who and what I am?
Will he help me, as only he can?
You're thinking I don't deserve someone like him after how I've behaved, aren't you? But understand this, I don't set out to hurt him. It's just with Gray...with whatever it is between us --fireworks, dynamite, admiration...I can't seem to let him walk out of my life.
Your selfish and Eternal Beast,
Dillon

5.0 out of 5 stars Epic book of the MOTV Series August 9, 2012

By Carla Gallway

Format:Mass Market Paperback

All I can say is WOW!! After I read Eternal Captive, the third book in the MARK OF THE VAMPIRE Series, I thought "it just can't get any better than this"! Then I was extremely lucky and got to read Laura's upcoming release, Eternal Beast very early and Hot Damn!! Laura Wright has done it again and totally blew me away. This book is by far the EPIC book of the series and everything changes in the world of the Purebloods, Impures and Mutores.

In the enovella "Eternal Blood" Gray learned that his father, Jeremy Donohue was the leader of the Impure Resistance. Now Gray has a new purpose in his life. He has become the new Leader of the Impure Resistance and will do anything to save the Impures from being Blood Castrated and controlled by the Order. He's just got one problem....he can't let Dillon go.

Dillon is still recovering from the horrible beating the Senator and his men gave her. She's stuck in her "other" form and cannot shift back. She seeks Grays helping and in doing so they become even closer, which is something that scares the hell out of Dillon. Dillon has to make a choice; let Gray in or push him away forever.

That's all I'm going to say on the storyline. SO much happens and I don't want to give away any more details of the story. I will say this though.....Gray and Dillon are SMOKIN' HOT together!!
We also get to see more of the other members of the Impure Resistance (Rio, Vincent & Piper) and we gets LOTS more of the Mutore in this book. We learn more about the beasts; Lycos, Helo, Phane & Erion. The ending of this book leads into Erion's book, which is coming up next and I am DYING to learn more about him.

If you still have not experienced the awesomeness that is the Mark of the Vampire Series you are truly missing out. Every book is phenomenal and they just get better and better. I look forward to every release. Laura Wright has created an original and extraordinary world and I am her fan girl for life!!

I give ETERNAL BEAST 5 out of 5 stars
