Charlie Newcomb lost her beautiful singing voice in an accident. Afterward, she fell into the bottle -- whiskey bottle, pill bottle, cocaine vial, whatever she could get her hands on. Now she's a recovering addict and alcoholic. And lately, she's felt as if she's constantly being watched -- by someone or something. Charlie's sister is a research scientist running tests on vampire blood, who doesn't realize she's employed by demons, or that she's engaged to one. To ensure she continues her work for them, the demons plan to have Charlie turned into a vampire -- one they can control. But Charlie has a Guardian. Ethan watches over Charlie and keeps her safe from things that go bump in the night. Things she doesn't let herself believe exist. But she's soon forced to acknowledge scary "other" beings do exist and that they have plans for both her and her sister. She will do anything for her sister -- but when she falls in love with Ethan, that's just for herself. And Ethan, well, he's loved Charlie for a long, long time. However, in order to have a life together, they'll not only have to rescue Charlie's sister from the demons, they'll have to thwart the demons' attempts to loose their master upon the world. DEMON NIGHT, Ms. Brook's fifth installment in her Guardian series (a world of vampires, demons and Guardians), is poignant and compelling with lots of action, and it's very sensual. You'll fall in love with Charlie, and Ethan will cause your thermometer to blow its top. An excellent plot, wonderful dialogue and a superb setting serve to make DEMON NIGHT a very good read. Don't miss reading it or any of Meljean Brook's other novels in this series. Come on number six!
