  <description><![CDATA[<strong>They were masters of the darkness, searching through eternity for a mistress of the light...</strong><br/><br/><em>Would she find magic--or madness--in his dark embrace?</em><br/><br/>Young Savannah Dubrinsky was a mistress of illusion, a world-famous magician capable of mesmerizing millions. But there was one--Gregori, the Dark One--who held <em>her</em> in terrifying thrall. Whose cold silver eyes and heated sensuality sent shivers of danger, of desire, down her slender spine. <br/><br/>With a dark magic all his own, Gregori--the implacable hunter, the legendary healer, the most powerful of Carpathian males--whispered in Savannah's mind that he was her destiny. That she had been born to save his immortal soul. And now, here in New Orleans, the hour had finally come to claim her. To make her completely his.

    <![CDATA[<strong>They were masters of the darkness, searching through eternity for a mistress of the light...</strong><br/><br/><em>Would she find magic--or madness--in his dark embrace?</em><br/><br/>Young Savannah Dubrinsky was a mistress of illusion, a world-famous magician capable of mesmerizing millions. But there was one--Gregori, the Dark One--who held <em>her</em> in terrifying thrall. Whose cold silver eyes and heated sensuality sent shivers of danger, of desire, down her slender spine. <br/><br/>With a dark magic all his own, Gregori--the implacable hunter, the legendary healer, the most powerful of Carpathian males--whispered in Savannah's mind that he was her destiny. That she had been born to save his immortal soul. And now, here in New Orleans, the hour had finally come to claim her. To make her completely his. In a ritual as old as time...and as inescapable as eternity.]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>They were masters of the darkness, searching through eternity for a mistress of the light...</strong><br/><br/><em>Would she find magic--or madness--in his dark embrace?</em><br/><br/>Young Savannah Dubrinsky was a mistress of illusion, a world-famous magician capable of mesmerizing millions. But there was one--Gregori, the Dark One--who held <em>her</em> in terrifying thrall. Whose cold silver eyes and heated sensuality sent shivers of danger, of desire, down her slender spine. <br/><br/>With a dark magic all his own, Gregori--the implacable hunter, the legendary healer, the most powerful of Carpathian males--whispered in Savannah's mind that he was her destiny. That she had been born to save his immortal soul. And now, here in New Orleans, the hour had finally come to claim her. To make her completely his. In a ritual as old as time...and as inescapable as eternity.]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>They were masters of the darkness, searching through eternity for a mistress of the light...</strong><br/><br/><em>Would she find magic--or madness--in his dark embrace?</em><br/><br/>Young Savannah Dubrinsky was a mistress of illusion, a world-famous magician capable of mesmerizing millions. But there was one--Gregori, the Dark One--who held <em>her</em> in terrifying thrall. Whose cold silver eyes and heated sensuality sent shivers of danger, of desire, down her slender spine. <br/><br/>With a dark magic all his own, Gregori--the implacable hunter, the legendary healer, the most powerful of Carpathian males--whispered in Savannah's mind that he was her destiny. That she had been born to save his immortal soul. And now, here in New Orleans, the hour had finally come to claim her. To make her completely his. In a ritual as old as time...and as inescapable as eternity.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[4th in the series--I was really looking forward to this one since it was about Savannah--Mikhail's and Raven's daughter and Gregori, who has popped up in many of the stories. I was a little disappointed, though--the plot was just like the last one I read. It was entertaining enough, though and just ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/69573453">more...</a>]]></body>
