HEAT OF THE NIGHT
Sylvia Day

Erotic | Romance Erotica Sensual | Romance Paranormal

Conner Bruce's best friend and fellow dream guardian, Aiden, is in danger from the Temple of the Elders. Conner knows the only way to warn Aiden is to enter the mortal plain of reality where Aiden resides with the love of his life, Lyssa Bates. When the front door opens, Conner finds an irresistibly beautiful woman standing there with fire in her damp eyes.

Stacey Daniels is house-sitting for her friend and employer, Lyssa. She is not expecting company especially after totally losing it with her son on the phone. The devastatingly hot and sexy man greeting her at the door is surprising, to say the least. Conner's intense story about who he is and why he needs to reach Aiden is unclear, but Stacey is captivated by him and what he does to her heart.

HEAT OF THE NIGHT, second book in the Dream Guardian series, is unique and hotly sexy. It continues to build the characters from the first book, PLEASURES OF THE NIGHT, while keeping the new ones center stage.

SUMMARY

Bad boys are her weakness and no one is as wicked as Connor Bruce… He is the realization of every woman’s erotic fantasies. Existing in the Twilight between sleep and consciousness, Connor brings them decadent pleasures, fueled by their sexual energy. But violence and strife now tear apart both worlds, and Connor must embark on a perilous quest into the mortal realm … and into the arms of one intoxicating enchantress. Stacey Daniels has always been attracted to the wrong type of men – and the muscular, Viking-like champion on her front doorstep is no exception. She can hardly believe the wounded warrior is from another world, a world where erotic dreams are needed to survive, a world of terrible danger that has followed him to her home. Connor finds solace in her passion, but only time will tell if he can defeat the dark foe who hunts them … and if Stacey can surrender to the promise he offers with every electrifying touch.
