Romance Paranormal
Valerie Moyers is being held by a madman. She and several
other women are kept in cages and drugged except for the day
they are taken out where horrific things happen. Valerie
stops eating to allow the drug to clear from her system.
When she is taken out she manages to get away from Igor and
call 911. She escapes from the house before help can
arrive. Anders and other enforcers arrive before the police and
rescue the women they can find. Only as they search outside
does Anders discover Valerie. Blood loss from the wound she
received fighting Igor caused her to pass out. When Anders finds that he can't read Valerie's thoughts, he
receives the order to take her back to a safe house so she
can be interviewed by Lucian Argeneau. In the interim, all
of the others have their memories wiped and are returned to
their normal lives. Valerie is their best option for finding the rogue. Her
wound becomes infected and she spends three days in the
Argeneau household before she recovers. Keeping Valerie in the dark about what they all are when
they know she has been kidnapped by a vampire is hard on
everyone. However, they need her knowledge when the other
women who were with Valerie start disappearing again. To Valerie, the Argeneau family and all of their friends are
a puzzle to be solved until she discovers that they are the
same as the man who kidnapped her. The only thing that
keeps her where she is, is the knowledge that none of them
have bitten her. Her attraction to Anders is another reason
for sticking around. Ms. Sands has managed to keep this series fresh with the
introduction of new characters and the occasional appearance
of just a few of the characters from the previous books.
Each story is slightly different in how she introduces her
human characters to the various enforcers and members of the
Argeneau family. This is the only vampire series I will read because I love
her writing and look forward to each new book by this
author. IMMORTAL EVERAFTER fit right in with the others
and will be put on my keeper shelf.
SUMMARY
Valerie never gave much thought to the legends of
vampires. That is, until she’s kidnapped by a fang-
wielding psychopath and kept hostage in an underground
dungeon with six other female--dining companions. Able to
escape using her martial art skills and her wits, she’s
picked up by the Argenau rescue team--and the sexy Anders--
only to discover that her captor got away...and is on the
hunt again.
When Anders discovers Valerie battered and brusied under a
bush, he’s not expecting to meet someone capable of
defending herself against a vampire attack--or his psychic
influence. Immediatly taken by this fierce beauty, he’s
determined to find the vamp responsible for her
abuse...and make him pay.
