Angelique Deveraux makes a quick decision and takes off
with the black diamond knowing, as an archaeologist, the
dangers it contains if it falls into the wrong hands and
how angry Ryder will be when he finds her gone. She's
beginning to understand the black diamond is connected to
her family in some dark and unnatural way, so until she
figures out the mystery behind the artifact, she must keep
it, as well as herself, well hidden. However, Angelique
fails in her attempts to stay hidden, which brings both
Ryder and the evil demon hunting her to her door.
Ryder's capabilities as a demon hunter are well known, but
with both Angelique and the black diamond gone, he
questions himself for not paying more attention to her
motives. His determination to locate Angelique is
unmatched, and he does so quickly. Unfortunately, a new
breed of the Sons of Darkness arrives before he can talk to
her. Using every skill he can drum up, Ryder figures out
how to weaken the new demon, which gives them enough time
to escape to safety. Now all Ryder needs to do is convince
Angelique to turn over the black diamond.
This latest book in Jaci Burton's Demon Hunter
series is fast-paced and exciting. It extends and
enlightens the original storyline keeping you on the edge
of your seat for the next one. I love this series!
Ryder. The man was just as sexy as she remembered him:
tall, lean, and dangerous, a demon hunter with the body of
a god...
But archaeologist Angelique Deveraux has little time for
lust. She’s been hiding a gleaming black diamond, a prize
everyone wants—including Ryder—and now she’s running for
her life. Hot on her trail is Ryder, a legendary demon
hunter she desires but can’t quite trust, a man with an
insatiable need for danger and a few dark secrets of his
own.
As sparks ignite between the rogue hunter and his latest
prey, Angie’s world is rocked again when her twin sister
vanishes, stolen away by the same dark forces stalking
Angie and the black diamond. With Ryder offering protection—
and more—suddenly a woman who’s never trusted anyone is
falling for a man who isn’t afraid of anything…except
losing his heart. Now, as an all-out demon war erupts and
Angie’s family secrets unravel, Ryder’s demon hunt and
Angie’s quest to save her sister are about to collide. And
when they do, it’ll send these two wary hearts on the
wildest adventure of their lives—and maybe even save
humankind in the process.…
