Part of the Night Walker Series, this historic paranormal romance novella is a fantastic, quick read that immerses you in the Night Walker world brilliantly. Kane Bordeux is an immortal god who once lived with the Mayans and now resides in Paris. His strong good looks and wealth attract the heroine, Marguerite Rousseau, a beautiful and strong-willed woman who woos aristocrats while she picks their pockets. Marguerite's alias is Le Voleur Dae or, the golden thief. Her beauty, charm and wit allow her to get away with her crimes. Her master is Antoine, a vampire. He drinks from her and holds her captive through a blood bond. In order to buy her and her cousin's way to the new world, Marguerite has turned to stealing. When she meets Kane, however, she cannot resist her feelings and he must come to terms with love after centuries alone.

Kane was a very hot, very intriguing character, and I loved Marguerite's cunning and adorable personality. Their love grows into a passion so real that you can almost feel it jump right off the pages. Their first sex scene was blazing hot, yet sweet and romantic at the same time. Another great aspect of this story was view that the Night Walkers were here to protect humans, and Kane believed the vampires should do the same. He detests Antoine and his abusive and controlling nature. I rooted for Marguerite to steal her way out of Antoine's grasp, and for her and Kane to be together. It was hard to put this book down! Lisa Kessler's talents shine through with rich details and delicious scenes. I can't wait to get my hands on more of the Night Walker series. Read this one for an unconventional view on vampires and immortals, and for a steamy, passionate fix.
