The Directorate is the organization that decides the rules and regulations for vampire behavior. If a vampire disobeys them he can be sanctioned with the ultimate punishment of the True Death. Revelin Scott is the chief enforcer of the Directorate and his latest assignment sends him to Baton Rouge. A group of rogue vampires are flaunting the rules by creating aberrations, humans forced to take vampire blood and become slaves to the vampire they drink from.

Revelin must destroy all the vampires and he is forced to accept the help of the mortal woman Deni Geron whose brother was killed by the rogues. When they arrive at their destination, Revelin, with the help of Deni, is able to infiltrate the group, but he finds he is unable to kill the head of the group. Again, he must depend on Deni to help him but if she fails, they will both die.

Revelin Scott was chosen for this job for his supposed immunity to the charms of mortal women yet it is Deni's love for him that will be his salvation. Their co-dependence in the work arena spills over into their personal lives forming a bond that is necessary for the story line to work. IMMORTAL IMAGE is a delightfully refreshing vampire romance that will satisfy any one interested in the nosferatu.

Revelin Scott is now Nicolena's pet enforcer, sent all over the world to punish misbehaving vampires. The previous holder of the title Drago is officially dead. His latest assignment involves a secret society of vampires in Baton Rouge. A human has alerted them to the group when her brother is killed by them. Rev wants nothing to do with humans and loves his job, but his latest assignment might be just a bit too much for him to handle alone.

I really love this series and have been waiting a while for this book. I have to say that I was not disappointed. This was a great book that I read in one sitting.

I am a huge fan of Jaye Roycraft especially her Image series of books. Immortal Image is my favorite in that series. I have already read it twice and look forward to giving it another read. It is a very exciting and sensual book. I find the characters to be incredibly well developed and the storyline keeps you guessing until the very end.

I love this series Immortal Image is the forth in Jayes image vampire series - Her hero Revlin Scott is an English and being from England myself I loved her use of some of our slang terms, well written.. Who's next I wonder.
If you have yet to read Jayes series here is the list so far
Double Image - AfterImage - Shadow Image and this one Immortal Image. Excellent and they are keepers.

A dangerous and illegal organization of vampires, `la société rouge,' is taking hold in Baton Rouge, defying the governing authority of vampires in the States. The leader, Vangeline, is extremely powerful, permitting her followers to run around creating aberrations - half human/half vampire creatures - controlled exclusively by their creator.

Revelin (Rev) Scott, l'enforcier, resistant to the feminine wiles, is chosen to go undercover and infiltrate Vangeline's lair to eliminate her. The last two sent never returned, assumed to have been sent to their True Deaths. Rev swears not to fail, reiterating his oft-used motto "No one goes Scott-free."

Rev's partner, is human, Denice (Deni) Geron, whose brother was an aberration until he disappeared. Deni is reluctant, hating vampires because of her brother's fate, and is convinced she will die during this mission. At first she is repulsed by Rev, her feelings changing as she gets to know him. Heaven forbid could she actually be falling for the enemy? As Rev is lured into la société, and doomed to failure, his only hope is the enticing Deni, and their unlikely allies.

Immortal Image was a fascinating entrée into the world of Ms. Roycraft. The characters are compelling and seductive, grabbing hold from page one, captivating readers through to the end. The plot thickens throughout, keeping one waiting breathlessly for whatever is next. Plot twists are thrown in, enhancing the story and adding to the suspense.

Ms. Roycraft knows just when to ease up and when to tighten her hold. She uses the right detail in painting the landscape of her world, giving a clear picture, so reader can visualize what is happening. This book leaves one eager for more, wanting to rush out and find more from this vampire world. Immortal Image won't disappoint.
