In this third installment of the Night Slayer series,
Detective John Boehler has just had his first confirmed
sighting of a vampire, even though he doesn't know it yet.
The man John has worked so hard to capture and see
convicted has been set free. Even though John has been
suspended from the force, he still feels a driving need to
prove Simon Brody guilty. On a hunch, John detours through
the park, knowing it's Brody's favorite hunting ground.
What he finds instead will change his life forever.
Ever since she watched her family slain by vampires,
Jessica Winslow, Admiral Winslow's niece, has been out for
revenge. Having just arrived from England, Jessica sees an
opportunity to slay a vampire and goes charging through the
darkened park, sword in tow. But before Jessica can strike,
she finds herself tackled to the ground and arrested.
The sparks between John and Jessica are evident from their
first encounter in the park, and as their separate agendas
keep throwing them together, the tension grows. When
Jessica finds herself the target of the freshly-fanged
Brody, John sets out to kill two birds -- protect Jess and
capture Brody. What neither of them counts on is the chance
to find a love that will last forever -- assuming they both
survive...
TEMPTED IN THE NIGHT is an entertaining read that gives you
a glimpse of the characters from the previous books (OUT OF
THE NIGHT and SEDUCED BY THE NIGHT) without dwelling too
much on the stories already told. It's a great addition to
this paranormal series, but quite enjoyable even if you
haven't read the others. A must-read, either way.
For Jessica Winslow, the only good vampire is a staked
vampire. Driven by revenge, the fiery brunette takes insane
risks to destroy the undead wherever she finds them. Now
she pursues her most fiendish target ever--and finds
herself competing with the razor-sharp street smarts of a
dangerously seductive man...
Detective John Boehler has no problem dealing with vampires-
-not even the city's newest bloodsucker, a notorious serial
killer John had failed to bring to justice. He does have a
problem with the attractive vampire-hunter recklessly
following the murderer's trail. But when John falls prey to
a power he could never have predicted, Jessica must tempt
his now all-consuming hunger--and taste her own
uncontrollable desire.
