Dr. Leah Chin entered college at the tender age of fourteen
and has always felt like she doesn't fit in with other
people. When she gets an opportunity to take a position at
Romatech Industries, she feels she may be able to find like
minded people to work with and even befriend some of them,
until they try to tell her that she'll be working with
vampires. All of Leah's beliefs are put to the test when she
has to choose between believing in vampires and working to
save thousands of people or walking away from all the good
she can achieve by refusing to accept what's real. Walking
away would also mean never seeing the green eyed vampire in
the kilt she's so intrigued with.
Vampire Dougal Kincaid is tired of his friends trying to
make him feel better about losing his hand while doing
battle with Malcontents. All he wants is to get back into
active duty and prove he still has what it takes to protect
mortals from evil vampires. When he's offered the position
of head of security for Romatech, Dougal knows it's his
chance to get back into the thick of things. He never
factored in his reaction to Romatech's newest scientist,
Leah. One look at Leah and Dougal's dragon tattoo begins to
burn. Dougal thinks he may have found his reincarnated love
but his guilt makes him feel like he's not worthy of her,
even three hundred years later. When Leah is thrust into the
path of a demon and a dangerous vampire, Dougal will have to
decide what he wants more, Leah or redemption.
Kerrelyn Sparks adds another exhilarating read to the
Love
at Stake series with THE VAMPIRE WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO.
Though this is now book fourteen, I am still enjoying this
series as much as I did the first time I picked up a Love
at
Stake book. While some series get stale after a certain
number of books, Sparks has been able to keep things fresh
and interesting by focusing on each individual story while
treating readers to glimpses of the characters they've
fallen in love with.
One of my favorite things about this
series is that it's not all vampires or all shifters. Sparks
changes it up, thus keeping the reader immersed in her
growing world. Dougal has been a favorite for many a reader,
especially after he lost his hand during battle, and the
fact that the man wears a kilt doesn't hurt either. Readers
will love seeing him get his happily ever after in THE
VAMPIRE WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO. Anyone who has ever felt
socially awkward will be able to relate to Leah and
understand where she's coming from. As always, I can't wait
to see what Sparks has in store for us after this but until
then, go pick up this entire series. You'll be addicted.
Dougal Kincaid wasn't trying to scare Leah Chen when she saw him...er...handling the life–size Romatech blood doll VANNA. And he really wasn't trying to scare her when he accidentally pulled the doll's arm off, spraying Leah with blood.
Incidents like these seem to keep happening to the Scottish warrior vampire. Ever since he lost his hand in battle and has been struggling with a prosthesis, Dougal's sure he's the laughing stock of the clan. But when geneticist Leah arrives, anxious to solve the case of a mutant prisoner, he's suddenly tongue–tied–and very interested. But can she ever see past his gruff, clumsy exterior?
Leah doesn't believe in vampires. At least, that's what she keeps telling herself as she joins their ranks and works alongside some of the world's most talented scientists. Nevermind their fangs. And the quiet kilted one? He's the most fascinating of all.
But when Leah's life is in danger, Dougal must put his fears behind him and find a way to save her–hand or no hand. A daring rescue that circumvents the globe, he's on a mission to save the woman of his dreams...
