Lazaro Archer has been an intriguing and mysterious presence in the Midnight Breed series so far. In TEMPTED BY MIDNIGHT, Lara Adrian takes this brooding hero and places him in front of his greatest temptation -- and his greatest fear.

Breedmate Melena Walsh has her sights set on the man who has saved her life before. She knows she owes him her life, but Lazaro remains distant and cold, never giving in to her kindness until a surprise attack threatens both their lives.

Action-packed and infused with so much sexual tension you think you'll burst, Adrian takes the best parts of her Midnight Breed series and amplifies it in this novella. Don't be fooled by the short length, Adrian definitely wields her words in a way that is effective and stunning. This is easily one of the better novellas I've read this year.

TEMPTED BY MIDNIGHT is thrilling and seductive, reminding me so much of why I adore this series.
