"Another fantastic book in the Dark Hunter series."

Cassandra Peters has lived most of her life moving from one city to another. Always being hunted by Daimons, Cassandra trusts only her human father and her bodyguard, Kat.

No one remembers Viking warrior Wulf Tryggvasen five minutes after meeting him. He's suffered a lonely existence until he saves Cassandra from Daimons. The next day, he's stunned to discover that she remembers him.

Not only does Cassandra remember him, but he learns that she's Apollite. Wulf has spent centuries hunting Apollites, who feed off human souls in order to extend their lives past 27-years-of-age. Wulf is then ordered to protect Cassandra from the Daimons. As the last Apollite link to an ancient god, the Daimons must kill her to remove the curse of darkness, so they can walk in the sunlight.

Cassandra and Wulf don't trust each other, yet they're drawn to each other through their dreams. Wulf has finally found love, but Cassandra is doomed to die on her next birthday, unless she feeds from human souls. And if she dies, so does the world. Cassandra and Wulf must put their faith into the unknown, fighting valiantly to save her from Daimons with powers unheard of and by doing something unthinkable to survive.

Ms. Kenyon once again delivers a winner. KISS OF THE NIGHT is a story of a courageous woman and a risk-taking man who are both willing to put their love in faith's hand. I highly recommend it.

Wulf is an ancient Viking warrior with a useful but extremely aggravating power-amnesia. No one who meets him in person can remember him 5 minutes later. It makes it easy to have one-night stands, but hard to have a meaningful relationship, and without true love he can never regain his soul. When he finally meets Cassandra, the one woman who can remember him, she turns out to be the princess of the cursed race he's sworn to hunt-and forbidden to him. The two of them must face ancient curses, prophecies, and the direct meddling of the Greek gods to find true happiness at last.

Summary

Dear Reader,

What do you get when you have one immortal Viking warrior no one can remember five minutes after he leaves their presence, a princess on the run for her life, and one seriously annoyed demigod? Basically, you get my life.

It started out simple enough. One night I went to save a woman in trouble. The next thing I knew, the doorway to hell had opened and out stepped Daimons-vampires the likes of which I'd never seen before. Led by the son of Apollo, they are out to end the curse that has banished them all to darkness. The only problem with that is they have to kill Cassandra Peters to do it and if she dies, so dies the sun, the earth and all who dwell here. Life's just a bowl full of cherries, ain't it?

Brought together by fate, it's now my job to protect a daughter of the very race I have been hunting for centuries. Neither of us dares to trust the other. But she is the only one who remembers me... More than that, with her courage and strength, she is the only one who has ever touched a heart that I thought had died centuries ago.

The only way for a Dark-Hunter to regain his soul is through the love of a woman. But what happens when that woman isn't exactly human?
