"A great vampire romance"
In 1953 Lady Daniela, the rare offspring of two vampires,
travel to Western Australia to claim her maternal
inheritance since her mom chose sun suicide. On the trek

visiting English human Devlin at a dive. They hit it off

males over her two millennium existence that rarely tickle
her let alone ignite her desire. Dev accompanies Daniela to her station and learns what she
is. He assists her in her goal to rid the world of an
evil vampiric despot. She wants his soul voluntarily.
However, when she violates her beloved by claiming him as
her servant without his permission, Daniela fears she went
too far and will lose the independent Dev since he does
not understand the repercussions to her by her naming him. Besides a great vampire romance by an author marking the
sub-genre fans as loyal followers, (see THE VAMPIRE
QUEEN'S SERVANT and THE MARK OF THE VAMPIRE QUEEN) Joey W.
Hill provides a strong sense of time and place. The story
line insures readers will be in the remote Outback as Ike
and Elizabeth rise to power. Filled with action and two
strong lead protagonists, readers will appreciate this
enticing invigorating thriller. Harriet Klausner
