Connor Buchanan has been on earth for 499 years and if
there's two things he knows, it's that one, love doesn't do
anything but cause heartache, and two, he's destined for
hell. Watching his friends fall into the trap called love
one by one isn't giving Connor any hope. He knows heartache
is just around the corner. When a fallen angel ends up in
his care, Connor re-evaluates his stand on falling in love.
But there's no way an angel would fall for a condemned man
like him.
Marielle doesn't follow orders very well, thus was stripped
of her wings and tossed out of heaven. Now Marielle has one
goal in mind; find a way back into heaven. She thinks she
may have found a way to win redemption by helping the good
vampires in their fight with the Malcontents. With each
passing day on earth though, Marielle is more confused about
what she wants. The feelings Connor stirs up within her want
her to stay on earth and heal him from his pain, but heaven
is the only home she knows. Is she going to be Connor's
salvation or will he be the cause of her ultimate downfall
from heaven?
Fans of Kerrelyn Sparks' Love at Stake series have been
waiting for this story for a long, long time. In her tenth
book, Sparks finally gives fans the story of the Scottish
hottie, Connor Buchanan. I've certainly been waiting for his
story since I first discovered this series. For those new to
the series, I strongly suggest you read the rest of the
series before you pick up this book. There are a lot of key
players and it can be hard to keep track of things. For
those of you who are already in love with these books, this
is another book to add to your keeper pile. After 499
years, Connor deserves a happily ever after, but it does
come with some heartache along the way. Be prepared for some
surprises and a lot of laughs. And long after you finish
this book, I guarantee you you'll be thinking about the
three step rule and if it really works. Now, go read the
book to find out what the three step rule is. You'll love it!
Nothing on earth can make this vampire fall in love . . .
After 499 years of existence, Connor Buchanan has arrived at
an inescapable conclusion: he is a cold-hearted SOB. He's
been watching his friends—those poor romantic fools—plummet
off the cliff into love like a dazed herd of sheep. But not
Connor. He knows that love leads to nothing but heartache.
Until Marielle . . .
She is an angel cast down from heaven for disobedience.
Trapped in mortal form, she finds a protector in Connor, a
Scottish vampire haunted by a dark past. Marielle hopes to
heal his broken heart and earn her way back home, but
suddenly she has these . . . feelings. This strange yet
pleasant physical yearning—for a vampire! Is this the work
of a demon luring her into hell, or has this angel found
heavenly bliss?
