| A quest as seductive as his kiss, as uncontrollable as his thirst, as unforgiving as his determination to protect one mortal woman at any cost . . . DANTE LIVES. Vampire. Rock star. Begotten son of a fallen angel. Dante Baptiste continues to search for the truth about his past. When his band Inferno comes to Seattle on tour, FBI Special Agent Heather Wallace is drawn back to the beautiful, dangerous nightkind. But new enemies lurk in the shadows, closer than Heather and Dante think . . . and even deadlier than they fear. DESTINY UNFOLDS. Shady government forces have pledged to eliminate all loose ends from Project Bad Seed--and Heather and Dante are at the top of the list. Elsewhere, the Fallen gather in Gehenna, intent on finding their long-awaited savior. And a damaged and desperate adversary, with powers as strange and perilous as Dante's own, plots to use Dante as a pawn in a violent scheme for revenge. Only one of these lethal forces holds the key that could finally unlock the secret of Dante's birth and the truth of his existence . . . or destroy him completely. |

| "Phoenix trips the dark fantastic in this wild, bloody sequel , , , She keeps the plot thick and the tension high." --Publisher's Weekly "The atmosphere is dark and treachery abounds, making this story white-knuckle reading in the extreme." --Romantic Times "Filled with twisting plots, shadowy government agencies, conspiracies, and betrayals, In the Blood kept me hooked from page one. This dark urban fantasy is not only action-packed from beginning to end, but at its core, it is also a story of hope and love." --ParaNormal Romance "Adrian Phoenix is fast becoming one of my favorite authors. Her ability to create a dark, edgy atmosphere so real you can see, hear, and taste it, while maintaining a fast-moving, page-turning plot, is simply amazing." --Jenna Black, author of Speak of the Devil "Once again, Phoenix draws the reader into the darkly beautiful world she has created: a place scary yet romantic with an underlying epic feel. The relationship between Heather and Dante is virtually tactile in its intensity, and we know that they belong together in the complementary relationship which allows them to thwart the forces that seek to destroy them. The secondary characters all effectively add true support to the narrative and to the relationship between the two leads." --Bitten by Books |
