  <default_description>Belting out his grief into the storm, Hoyt Mac Cionaoith rails against the evil that has torn his twin brother from their family's embrace.  Her name is Lilith.  Existing for over a thousand years, she has lured countless men to an immortal doom with her soul-stealing kiss.  But now, this woman known as vampire will stop at nothing until she rules this world--and those beyond it...

Hoyt is no match for the dark siren.  But his powers come from the goddess Morrigan, and it is through her that he will get his chance at vengeance.  At Morrigan's charge, he must gather five others to form a ring of power strong enough to overcome Lilith.  A circle of six:  himself, the witch, the warrior, the scholar, the one of many forms and the one he's lost.  And it is in this circle, hundreds of years in the future, where Hoyt will learn how strong his spirit--and his heart--have become...</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[The circle trilogy was my introduction to Nora Roberts and I have to say I love her! She writes these amazing romance stories, and as yet this trilogy remains my favourite. It beautifully blends a love story with a fantastical foray into a mystical world. The 3 books each explore a different relatio...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/41652335">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Fairly predictable, but an enjoyable romp. Lots of paranormal/magic/sword stuff (two thumbs up from me) and only a modium of romance (again, two thumbs up from me). :D]]></body>

A group of six chosen ones preparing for battle against Lilith, the most powerful vampire in the world.  You had your vampire slayer Blair (Buffy).

    <body><![CDATA[At first glance, this book covers two of my favorite guilty pleasures in fiction: time travel and vampires, so I’ve been excited to read it.  But it took approximately 2.5 chapters to realize that something didn’t gel with this story and that it basically sucked some hardcore donkey you-know-wha...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/30902773">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I guess it had to happen: I always thought that Nora Roberts wanted to explore magic back in the day. She's always tip toed around it, prodded at it, but never threw herself into it (until her 'Hollow' storyline in 2008). This is Ms Roberts' foray into supernatural magic, with shape shifters and so ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/29394731">more...</a>]]></body>
