Nicolas Montfaucon was once a Templar Knight whose faith in
God separated him from the average man. Unfortunately, King
Philip decided he no longer needed the ever-loyal and
faithful knight, locking Nicolas in a dungeon to await his
death. But when a mysterious visitor offered Nicolas an
opportunity to save not only himself, but his brother as
well, by becoming immortal, he made the sacrifice for the
greater good. Nicolas' task during those first years was to
exile a demon by trapping it in a crypt located in the
center of a New Orleans cemetery.
Now during the floods caused by Hurricane Katrina, the
cemetery has become submerged in water and threatens to let
loose the evil that is Nicolas' sole responsibility. He
must dive into the dark and murky water to confirm his
greatest fear -- an evil presence has been unleashed on an
unsuspecting public.
This second book in the Dark Realm series has it all. Hot
and sexy characters with enough mysterious twists and turns
to keep you on the edge of your seat during the entire
book. I absolutely loved it!
For eight hundred years Nicolas Montfaucon has dedicated
his life to preventing the rebirth of an immortal evil. But
now a terrible storm has assaulted unsuspecting New
Orleans—and the beast walks the earth once more. "The
Devourer" has been awakened, and there is only one in the
besieged city who can help Nicolas defeat the foul
creature—a mysterious and beautiful enigma who haunts the
handsome Revenant's erotic waking dreams and enflames his
passionate obsessions.
Chessa Tomas is not an
ordinary policewoman. A vampire, she works only at night,
patrolling a seamy and unseen underworld of roiling chaos.
Though Nicolas is sensuality incarnate, Chessa wants no part
of him or his kind—but she cannot close her eyes to the
unholy malevolence that would consume their world. And
Nicolas has uncovered the secret lust that rules her—a
steaming, uncontrollable desire he intends to unleash,
bending Chessa to his will by making her most forbidden
fantasies real.
