Romance Paranormal

Renata has no equal in battle. She has a gift unlike any other that will bring vampires instantly to their knees, and a talent with knives and guns unequaled by mortals. With her gift is a rebound that leaves her weak, but she manages to hide that weakness from all but her closest enemies. Nikolai is a warrior, one of the Breed's elite. His search for the elusive Sergei Yakut, a Gen One, leads Niko to Renata and her carefully laid trap.

Sergei grants Niko an audience, but wishes no involvement or interference from the warrior and his team. Niko accepts Sergei's reluctant hospitality to avoid the daylight and learn more about the lovely Renata. He's fascinated by the beautiful, lethal woman and attracted to her on many different levels. Renata refuses to admit her attraction to the intriguing warrior, believing to do so will cost her all she holds dear. While exploring the compound, Niko discovers some unpleasant truths about Renata and the goings-on at Sergei's compound that have him ready to bring down the full power of The Order.

When one closest to Sergei turns traitor and frames Niko, Renata assists in his capture, only to realize too late her mistake. Knowing Niko may be her only hope to save herself and the child she loves more than anything else, Renata puts into action a plan that could mean the end of herself and the man she is learning to love.

Lara Adrian's VEIL OF MIDNIGHT is book five of the Midnight Breed series. Well-written and beautifully plotted, with intriguingly complex characters, it's a thrill ride from the opening scenes. Renata and Niko are flawed heroes, struggling with their reality and recognizing in the other a kindred spirit. Apart, they are strong, fierce warriors, together, they're a force to be reckoned with. The multi-layered plotline continues to lead readers to what promises to be a battle of epic proportions. Niko's story is the one I've most looked forward to throughout the series, but Ms. Adrian has set up a couple of characters in this story with events I look forward to reading about. Fans get ready, this series just gets better and better!

SUMMARY

Bound by blood, addicted to danger, they'll enter the darkest—and most erotic—place of all.

A warrior trained in bullets and blades, Renata cannot be bested by any man—vampire or mortal. But her most powerful weapon is her extraordinary psychic ability—a gift both rare and deadly. Now a stranger threatens her hard-won independence— a golden-haired vampire who lures her into a realm of darkness…and pleasure beyond imagining.

A combat- loving adrenaline junkie, Nikolai dispenses his own justice to enemies of the Breed—and his latest quarry is a ruthless assassin. One woman stands in his way: the seductive, cool-as-ice bodyguard, Renata. But Renata’s powers are put to the test when a loved one, a child, is threatened and she’s forced to turn to Niko for help. As the two join forces, as desire fans the flames of a deeper hunger, Renata’s life is under siege by a man who offers the exquisite pleasure of a blood bond—and a passion that could save or doom them both forever.…
