William Cuyler Thorne is old-money Savannah, a leader in
society; but he's much older than society knows. He's a
vampire, old-school in some ways, thoroughly modern in
others. William is secretly bringing his contemporaries to
America to get them away from the old European vampires and
the likes of Reedrek, his sire.
Then a transport yacht turns up with the crew and
passengers dead or missing. William knows Reedrek has come
to America to claim his rights as sire and to begin a
bloodbath no one in this century could imagine. With his
sidekick, Jack, a good old boy who's only been a vampire
since the Civil War, and the help of a voodoo priestess,
along with a vial of the blood of a voodoo queen, William
sets out to end the reign of terror Reedrek has begun.
Along the way, they get help from a magician/illusionist, a
top-run leading man out of Hollywood and a national
champion stock car driver -- all vamps William has brought
to America.
THE VAMPIRE'S SEDUCTION was a real treat to read. Different
from any vampire story I've read lately, it snagged my
interest at once and kept me glued to the pages until the
end. I can't wait for the story to continue. The characters
are totally fresh and immediately likable, which left me
yearning to learn more about them and the rest of the
story. Pick this one up the first time you see it; I don't
think it'll stay long on the shelf. An excellent read!
(Note: Raven Hart is the pseudonym of veteran
romance writers Virginia Ellis and Susan
Goggins. In January, Ms. Ellis died of a heart
condition, so we're not sure how Del Rey will handle the
continuation of this proposed series. We'll keep readers
informed as we know more.)
When it comes to a wild and seductive nightlife, Savannah
has bite.
Older than the United States and wealthy beyond his years,
playboy William Cuyler Thorne is a vampire with a nice long
undead life—one that includes a steady stream of admirers, a
consistent supply of rejuvenating blood, and, best of all, a
cover as one of Savannah’s most prominent pillars of
society.
But all good things must end.
Now an ancient enemy has come for William from across the
seas. It is his sire, Reedrek, the vampire who created him.
And Reedrek will stop at nothing until all that is precious
to William—his beautiful mistress, his stable of willing
female victims, his glorious estates, and his good-ol’-boy
vampire sidekick, Jack—is within his voracious grasp. But
William has an arsenal of his own—one that is enhanced by
the power of voodoo. And when these two bloodsuckers meet,
there will be hell to pay.
