Damien: The Nightwalkers

Overview

They are the Nightwalkers, mysterious beings who dwell in the shadows of our world, and Damien, the Vampire Prince, is among the most powerful of them all. But one woman will tempt him with a desire unlike anything he has known, and together they will face a terrifying and relentless foe...

He'd Never Loved.
But She Was Irresistible.
As reigning Vampire Prince, Damien has tasted every pleasure the world has to offer--consorting with kings and queens and delighting in sensual adventure. Now, tired of such pursuits, he devotes his energies to protecting his people. The war between human necromancers and Nightwalkers has escalated, and when the enemy makes a daring move, kidnapping Syreena, a Lycanthrope Princess, Damien boldly follows. He succeeds in rescuing her, but is unprepared for the erotic longing her lush sensuality awakens in him.

Gifted with rare abilities, Syreena grew up in a cloistered setting and was forbidden to form attachments to others, yet the connection Damien feels with her is immediate, intoxicating, and impossible for either to resist. But claiming Syreena as his mate could have shattering repercussions for every Nightwalker--and leave their enemies more dangerous than ever before...

Editorial Reviews

Damien is a prince of the Vampires; Syreena is a princess and--should anything happen to her sister, Siena--heir of the Lycanthropes, a strange mutation capable of transforming into dolphins or falcons with ease. When the two meet at the discovery of a Nightwalker library, they feel an instant attraction. But it isn't until Syreena is kidnapped by a crazed demon bent on vengeance and Damien comes to her rescue that they shatter Nightwalker taboos. As they fight both Ruth, the demon, and a love affair that is forbidden and politically explosive, they are forced to question what their priorities are: their people or their love for each other. Frank's latest Nightwalker entry is fast-paced and steamy, nicely developing the world of her generally upstanding, gorgeous and charismatic supernatural creatures.

Bio of Jacquelyn Frank

Jacquelyn Frank lives in Saugerties, New York, and has been writing romantic fiction ever since she picked up her first teen romance at age 13.

• Jacquelyn Frank's Nightwalkers Series

  Posted June 20, 2008 by Emptrix, Seattle

  I did not think Jacquelyn Frank could top Elijah for getting my blood warmed up. Damien proved me wrong. I love this series. You don't really have to have read the previous books to truly appreciate Damien, but it will bring a lot more meaning to the story. Jacqi Frank brings an appreciated consistency to this series. You can tell that she will be developing other characters in other series, but will remain true to the Nightwalkers and the core characters. I appreciate that as a reader. She is one of my favorites, along with Alexandra Ivy, Lara Adrian, and Christine Feehan. Oh, and Damien is hot!
