Movie location scout
Mackenzie Foster-Shaw has always been known that she's cursed to die
young. No one can protect her form the
evil that has stalked her family for generations---vampires who crave her rare
blood type. Until one afternoon in a
wooded cemetery, she encounters an impossibly sexy stranger, a man she must
trust with her life.
For Dominic, a man
haunted by loss, Mackenzie satisfies a primal hunger that torments him---and
the bond they share goes beyond heat, beyond love. She alone can supply the strength he needs to
claim his revenge. But in doing so, he
could destroy her. . .
Dominic was close to death when he found
Mackenzie. Being shot with silver tipped
bullets had his seconds from death. When
he bit into Mackenzie, it was purely for survival. It was only after taking enough to recover
from his wounds did he realize what she was.
She was a Sweetblood, a highly addictive blood type that vampires craved
like a drug.
Mackenzie wasn’t quite sure what happened. All she knew is that she was extremely groggy
and can’t not remember much that happened.
All she knows it that she has work to finish and a benefit to get ready
for. When she returns to the graveyard
that is her current assignment, she started to get a feeling that something
happened that she should remember, but just can’t.
After making sure that she gets home safely and
that she was not followed by any Darkbloods, Dominic tries everything that he
can to get her out of his head, but nothing is working. He just can’t keep himself away from her. Finally he decides that he will satisfy his bodies’
cravings for her body but will not take her blood again under any cost.
Mackenzie isn’t sure why this gorgeous man is
taking an interest in her. She is
nothing special and she knows better than to get into any kind of romantic
anything because of her curse, but with Dominic it’s different. She completely looses herself around him, which
is dangerous for them both.
Dominic has to distance himself from Mackenzie
because it is no longer about satisfying his bodies’ urges. There are feelings that are developing that
he can not allow. But when Mackenzie is
attacked and almost abducted, he is forces to deal with a past pain that is
brought to the surface and explaining to Mackenzie who and what he truly is.
Hearing what Dominic is and what she is, is the
only reasonable explanation to what has been happening to her family. Even with the knowledge that Dominic is a
vampire can’t keep the feelings she has for him away and he appears to have the
same problem.
He hadn’t realized
how empty he had felt until he was holding her again. His knees gave way and they sank to the
ground.
“I’m sorry I left
you.”
His fingers gripped her hair and he pulled her
lips to his. Greedily, he kissed her
cheeks, her eye lids, her neck, her earlobes.
He couldn’t get enough. Oh God,
he needed to make love to her, to have nothing separating them but skin. Share energies and---
If it were dark, he’d
take her right on the beach, like he had last night. How had he ever thought he could leave her?
I love you. The words, his words, tumbled unbidden in his
thoughts.
“I love you, too.” she said huskily as she pulled back to look
at him.
But their new love will be tested by the same
forces that Dominic has been fighting and Mackenzie has been running from their
whole lives.
This book was good from beginning to end. It really picked up with the love story about
half the way through but the action in the whole book kept you turning the
page. All in all, this was a good book,
worth reading.
