The Mark of the Vampire Queen

Romance | Erotic | Paranormal

Jacob is a human servant to Lady Lyssa, vampire queen of the Far East Clan. She's given him the third mark, which is both good and bad. It's good, as it pulls them closer together, makes mind-to-mind communication automatic, but it's bad because now Jacob's life is tied to Lady Lyssa's. And she's dying of a rare vampire virus that there's no cure for yet. If she dies before the worldwide vampire council meeting is over, all the vampires living in her territory will be left without protection. Then the growing faction of "made" vampires will have what they want -- total freedom to hunt humans at will. And the love Jacob and Lyssa have been in search of for centuries will end before it's really begun. THE MARK OF THE VAMPIRE QUEEN, the second book by Ms. Hill about Jacob and Lady Lyssa, is an adventure in erotica. If you like your stories hot, like I do, you'll love this one. It's a sizzling look into the world of the vampire/human servant relationship. Jacob and Lyssa's relationship is intense and extreme -- and not to be missed. I love these characters...and the twist at the end is totally unexpected. I can't wait to see if their story continues. A very good read.

SUMMARY

Full servant. With his new title, Jacob must attend to Lady Lyssa's every need, venturing into a world of passion darker than he's ever known. As a vampire hunter he wasn't prepared to embrace a world where humans are sexual commodities, but he has adapted. Now he finds the integrity of his soul challenged as he serves his Mistress's needs as fully as he services her desires.

He loves her, though other servants warn against giving her his soul. Everyone knows that Vampires have no regard for humans, so why would a Vampiress bother treating a mere sex toy with respect? But Jacob knows a human servant is far more than that. His Mistress needs a warrior, a friend and a lover. A man who will serve her in all ways, even if he has to betray the priceless treasure of her love.
