Some things never die.

Vampires, for one. Samantha Crews has lived a long time in the shadows of Memphis, working at the Nocturnal Urges club and hiding from the vampires that darken her past.

Det. Anne Freitas is stuck with a new partner, a young woman with a chip on her shoulder the size of Memphis itself. Now she’s assigned to investigate a series of threats against congressional candidate Robert Carton, for whom Samantha volunteers.

But Samantha has just fallen in love with Danny Carton, the candidate’s son. An idealist, who wants to make life better for humans and vampires alike. Danny offers love, understanding and passion - everything Samantha ever wanted.

But there’s a lot Danny doesn’t know about Samantha. He doesn’t know she’s a vampire. He doesn’t know she works at Nocturnal Urges. He doesn’t know his own father is one of her clients.

And he doesn’t know what’s hunting her. In the shadows.

-- Just Erotic Romance Reviews

Elizabeth Donald has taken a new twist on vampire stories. As the reader, we are taken into the dark world of Samantha Crews. All she wants is to be loved for herself and live life openly like everyone else. We feel her sorrow of being cast aside as not "worthy" enough to be a part of society. When she does try to better herself, citizens do their best to hold her down. You will find yourself rooting for Samantha and Danny, hoping they can keep their love strong in a world that does not want them together. This is an exceptionally great story.
