"Terrific paranormal romantic suspense thriller"

In Avalon, Reece Champion, the Champion of the United States since 1780 just as Arthur is to Britain, learns from Lancelot that a terrorist cult apparently is using a mage, but not one of there's or their rivals the Sidhe. Reece will work with the Feds, as he has done in the past, to uncover and stop the new threat.

The Outfit assigns Agent Erin Grayson to seduce businessman Reece Champion; she thinks this assignment will enable her to obtain the revenge that obsesses her. They meet at a business gala and soon are kissing one another. As they fall in love, a powerful malevolent essence captures the duo. This being plans to use the pair as the keys to eradicate the mages and humanity. To defeat their deadly evil opponent, Erin must embrace the paranormal powers she has ignored all her life and use them in conjunction with Reece's vampiric skills or know she went to her death with the culpability of billions joining her.

MASTER OF THE NIGHT is a terrific paranormal romantic suspense thriller that never slows down until the final confrontation between good and evil. The action-packed story line moves at a fast clip, but the key to the tale is the believability of magic and other supernatural skills due to the cast, regardless of species and talent, seeming so real. Angela Knight is a rising star in the paranormal pantheon, whose backlist will be sought after this fine tale.

Summary

American agent Erin Grayson has a new mission: romance international businessman Reece Champion. Seducing the handsome millionaire could put her that much closer to the revenge she craves against a murderous death cult.

Erin doesn't realize she's being manipulated by the very cult she hunts. Champion is actually an agent of the U.S. government.

He's also a vampire.

Reece immediately senses the latent supernatural powers hidden within Erin, powers as dangerously irresistible to him as her lush body and hot blood. Yet he also knows that yielding to their mutual desire will make them pawns in a deadly game.

And their opponent is, quite literally, a monster.
