Jason Roarke made a fateful mistake 300 years ago. He
allowed himself to be seduced by a beautiful woman, only to
find out she was the daughter of the very powerful wizard
Vilnuis. To Jason's utter dismay, Vilnuis took out his
revenge by casting a spell entrapping both of the lovers in
separate paintings, living out a lonely existence until
someone frees them from their prison.
As a vampire, the hunger Jason feels from not being able to
feed properly is excruciating pain; but as a man, the
loneliness is too much to bear. Jason's painting, Man
Walking in the Moonlight, is now hanging in an art
gallery where a certain woman has become fascinated enough
with his image to give him hope that she may be the one to
free him.
Karinna Adams enjoys art, but her feelings toward the
unusual painting hanging in her favorite gallery is
becoming borderline obsessive and starting to freak her
out. She can stare at this particular painting for hours
and every time she looks at it she sees something
different. She wonders how the artist makes the scene seem
so alive. The man on horseback captivates both her thoughts
and her dreams, so when the gallery offers to let her take
the painting home, she jumps at the chance. Then the
unthinkable happens; the man looks at her, saying her name,
writing notes asking her questions. The more she gets to
know him, the more she wishes he were real.
IMMORTAL SINS is witty, fun and passionate. A perfect
romance!
Three centuries ago, vampire Jason Rourke succumbed to
temptation with a wizard's lovely daughter - and that brief
taste of pleasure earned him a powerful curse. Trapped
within a painting, unable to quench the hellish thirst that
torments him, Jason has given up hope of escape until
Karinna Adams purchases the painting and unwittingly frees
him. At first, Jason plans only to enlist Kari's help in
navigating this strange new world so he can find and punish
the wizard who entrapped him. But Kari's enticing
sensuality and innocence incite a growing need in Jason to
touch and taste her, to possess her utterly. For the gulf
between them - and the danger that awaits - is nothing
compared to a potent, primal hunger that will last for all
eternity...
