    <body><![CDATA[The first quarter of this book was about the developing relationship between the two main characters, Jacques and Shea. It was intense and if any other characters were in this part of the story it was for only a few pages. It was Jacques and Shea and no one else and this I did not like.

    <![CDATA[The stranger silently summoned her from across the continents, across the seas.  He whispered of eternal torment, of endless hunger, of dark, dangerous desires.  Somehow, American surgeon, Shea O'Halloran could feel his anguish, sense his haunting aloneness, and she ached to heal him, to heal herself.  Drawn to the Carpathian mountains, Shea found a ravaged, raging man, a being like no other, and she trembled.  In his burning eyes, his icy heart, she recognized the beloved stranger who'd already become a part of her.  This Carpathian made had compelled Shea to his side.  But was she to be his healer...or his prey?  His victim...or his mate?  Was he luring her into madness...or would his dark desire make her whole?  Read by Juanita Parker.  12 CD's 12.5 Hrs.]]>

    <![CDATA[The stranger silently summoned her from across the continents, across the seas.  He whispered of eternal torment, of endless hunger, of dark, dangerous desires.  Somehow, American surgeon, Shea O'Halloran could feel his anguish, sense his haunting aloneness, and she ached to heal him, to heal herself.  Drawn to the Carpathian mountains, Shea found a ravaged, raging man, a being like no other, and she trembled.  In his burning eyes, his icy heart, she recognized the beloved stranger who'd already become a part of her.  This Carpathian made had compelled Shea to his side.  But was she to be his healer...or his prey?  His victim...or his mate?  Was he luring her into madness...or would his dark desire make her whole?  Read by Juanita Parker.  12 CD's 12.5 Hrs.]]>
