  <description><![CDATA[<strong>HIS NAME IS DANTE.</strong><br/>Dark. Talented. Beautiful. Star of the rock band Inferno. Rumored owner of the hot New Orleans nightspot Club Hell. Born of the Blood, then broken by an evil beyond imagination.<br/><br/><strong>HIS PAST IS A MYSTERY.</strong><br/>F.B.I. Special Agent Heather Wallace has been tracking a sadistic serial murderer known as the Cross Country Killer, and the trail has led her to New Orleans, Club Hell, and Dante. But the dangerously attractive musician not only resists her investigation, he claims to be &quot;nightkind&quot;: in other words, a vampire. Digging into his past for answers reveals little. A juvenile record a mile long. No social security number. No known birth date. In and out of foster homes for most of his life before being taken in by a man named Lucien DeNoir, who appears to guard mysteries of his own.<br/><br/><strong>HIS FUTURE IS CHAOS.</strong><br/>What Heather does know about Dante is that <em>something</em> links him to the killer -- and she's pretty sure that link makes him the CCK's next target. Heather must unravel the truth about this sensual, complicated, vulnerable young man -- who, she begins to believe, may indeed be a vampire -- in order to finally bring a killer to justice. But Dante's past holds a shocking, dangerous secret, and once it is revealed not even Heather will be able to protect him from his destiny....]]></description>

    <body><![CDATA[Like other reviewers have mentioned, this is a pretty dark Urban Fantasy read.  Dante is so terribly damaged that whether he'll ever be healed remains to be seen. I'm glad there's a sequel because I want a HEA for this character. Whether he gets it in the next book remains to be seen.

Born of the Blood, then broken by an evil beyond imagination.<br/><br/><strong>HIS PAST IS A MYSTERY.</strong><br/>F.B.I. Special Agent Heather Wallace has been tracking a sadistic serial murderer known as the Cross Country Killer, and the trail has led her to New Orleans, Club Hell, and Dante. But the dangerously attractive musician not only resists her investigation, he claims to be &quot;nightkind&quot;: in other words, a vampire. Digging into his past for answers reveals little. A juvenile record a mile long. No social security number. No known birth date. In and out of foster homes for most of his life before being taken in by a man named Lucien DeNoir, who appears to guard mysteries of his own.<br/><br/><strong>HIS FUTURE IS CHAOS.</strong><br/>What Heather does know about Dante is that <em>something</em> links him to the killer -- and she's pretty sure that link makes him the CCK's next target. Heather must unravel the truth about this sensual, complicated, vulnerable young man -- who, she begins to believe, may indeed be a vampire -- in order to finally bring a killer to justice. But Dante's past holds a shocking, dangerous secret, and once it is revealed not even Heather will be able to protect him from his destiny....]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>HIS NAME IS DANTE.</strong><br/>Dark. Talented. Beautiful. Star of the rock band Inferno. Rumored owner of the hot New Orleans nightspot Club Hell. Born of the Blood, then broken by an evil beyond imagination.<br/><br/><strong>HIS PAST IS A MYSTERY.</strong><br/>F.B.I. Special Agent Heather Wallace has been tracking a sadistic serial murderer known as the Cross Country Killer, and the trail has led her to New Orleans, Club Hell, and Dante. But the dangerously attractive musician not only resists her investigation, he claims to be &quot;nightkind&quot;: in other words, a vampire. Digging into his past for answers reveals little. A juvenile record a mile long. No social security number. No known birth date. In and out of foster homes for most of his life before being taken in by a man named Lucien DeNoir, who appears to guard mysteries of his own.<br/><br/><strong>HIS FUTURE IS CHAOS.</strong><br/>What Heather does know about Dante is that <em>something</em> links him to the killer -- and she's pretty sure that link makes him the CCK's next target. Heather must unravel the truth about this sensual, complicated, vulnerable young man -- who, she begins to believe, may indeed be a vampire -- in order to finally bring a killer to justice. But Dante's past holds a shocking, dangerous secret, and once it is revealed not even Heather will be able to protect him from his destiny....]]>

    <body><![CDATA[My full review is <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://bookwyrmreads.wordpress.com/phoenix-wings/">here</a>.<br/><br/>However, in brief, this is a very powerful book. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it's not the kind of book I can easily wrap my head around - my preference would be a 4.5 star rating, but I don't think I can give half a star here.<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/33329029">more...</a>]]></body>
