Prudence Ryland is living on borrowed time, stricken with cancer that will most likely kill her before the year ends. For her, searching for the Holy Grail is not only an adventurous undertaking, but drinking from the cup may very well save her life. Severain de Fonce, now known simply as Chapel, knows what it is to drink from the cup. Six centuries ago, he and four companions made it through to the inner sanctuary of the Knights Templar, where they drank from the cup, condemning them to a life outside of anything holy.

When Chapel meets the lovely Pru, he's drawn to the passionate, lively woman. He's torn by her plight, but does not wish to condemn her to a life like his own, forever in the shadows. Pru, however, is not frightened of his origins, and it's her faith in him that makes him wonder if perhaps living an eternity without Pru would be worse than binding her to him for eternity with his passionate kiss of death.

Kathryn Smith has crafted a thought-provoking, erotically sensual paranormal in BE MINE TONIGHT. Chapel has lived for centuries believing his existence cursed, and it's Pru, living with the knowledge of her imminent death, who makes Chapel realize that perhaps he's serving a greater good. The first in new series by this highly talented author, BE MINE TONIGHT will leave Ms. Smith's fans eagerly awaiting the next story.
