When 17-year-old Portia dramatically declares their middle sister, Vivienne, is marrying a vampire, Lady Caroline Cabot decides Portia is indulging in another flight of fancy. After all, Portia is also sure there are fairies in the garden and werewolves rummaging through the trash. After reading Vivienne's letter waxing poetic of the virtues of Viscount Adrian Kane, Caroline determines that a visit to London to meet her sister's suitor is in order.
In London, Adrian invites Caroline and Portia to join him for a midnight meal so they can become better acquainted. Rumors about the viscount are rampant in London concerning his nocturnal activities. Despite her misgivings, Caroline and Adrian are inexplicably drawn together, though both wish to deny their attraction. When Vivienne confesses her heart's true desire is Constable Larkin, the only thing that stands in the way of their love is Adrian's past and the evil that hounds him still.
AFTER MIDNIGHT is a most amusing Regency vampire romance that will have readers wondering -- is he or isn't he? The Cabot sisters are delightfully determined ladies, and the Kane brothers and their friend, Constable Alastair Larkin, have met their match. Medieros' wit and style are evident throughout, and her fans won't be disappointed in this supernatural tale. I can't wait to read Portia's story!
