Publisher Description
An electrifying start to Kresley Cole’s internationally bestselling Immortals After Dark series following a vampire general and his fey obsession.
Nikolai Wroth was once a ruthless human warlord in the 1700s. Now a general in the rebel vampire army, he needs to find his Bride. As a turned human, his heart doesn't beat making him significantly weaker that fully blooded vampires. So when his heart beats for Myst the Coveted, a mad fey mythological creature held captive by his army, he knows she's the only woman who can truly make him feel alive.
After eluding him for five years, Nikolai finally steals the jewel which commands Myst, giving him absolute power over her. He plans to use it to agonise her with the same unending lust she subjected him to for half a decade. But when Nikolai realises he wants more from her, he frees her.
The question is, will Myst the Coveted return?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Myst is a Valkyrie whose hatred of men is equal only to her hatred of her people's ancient enemy, vampires. Nikolai is a centuries-old, battle-scarred warlord vampire. Fate compels them to mate, making both Myst and Nikolai victims of an involuntary relationship replete with possessive imprisonment, coerced obedience, and rough forced sex all disguised as a recipe for happily ever after. Narrators Hagan Verret and Simone Fomhar turn in fine performances in this audio version of the first installment in Cole's Immortals after Dark series. Fomhar's pleasant, confident voice is perfect for portraying a strong female lead, and versatile enough to create voices for both male and female characters. Verret has a marvelously powerful voice that sounds as mighty as a warlord should sound. The narrators' professional efforts, however, cannot redeem this book, which makes use of every negative clich attributed to romance novels and tarnishes the genre unfairly.
