And for good reason. There are monsters that plague his mind. Demons that once destroyed him. Broke him. Now, his desire for Vanessa torments him, igniting those revenants whenever he thinks of her. He\u2019s desired her for months, but he hates what she is\u2014what she stands for. Can the witch he loathes be the one to tame his demons, or will she only send him farther into hell?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He wants to claim her, own her until he discovers something about her he has no choice but to admire, and when she lets down her guard, all he wants to do is comfort her\u2014love her.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Vanessa has her own fears to conquer.

A rockin\u2019 test of wills! This is Lane\u2019s and Vanessa\u2019s story&#8230;and what a story it is. Both of them are incredibly hard headed and always at each other\u2019s throats. Although, they secretly like each other. *wags eyebrows* They both think the other doesn\u2019t like them because of being a vampire or a witch but they share a connection that they cannot deny. This is an absolute test of wills between the two and the rollercoaster of emotion that follows is intense to say the least. Both start to bring the other out of their shell then all hell breaks loose. Vanessa and Lane are both very strong characters and watching them clash and come together is inspiring. This story is sweet, erotic, and satisfying.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>He nudged me to the side and stepped around me then picked up a bottle of wine and left me standing there in the cold. Dazed. Aroused. Wanting. And rocked to the core.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>We both needed to make some confessions, and maybe because we were both damaged, it was better to make them to each other.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>I liked my women willing and loving. Though a scream every now and then was just fine, as long as she was screaming my name from the pleasure I was giving her.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We have followed these characters in Tempted By a Vampire and Captivated By a Vampire. They can be read as standalones but to truly appreciate these characters I suggest you read from the beginning. The author is incredible at making these characters evolve in a way you can\u2019t rip away from. They go through the same emotions most people go through and therefore make them more real (even though they are vampires and witches, lol!). This series gets better and better as it continues. Rock on Susan Griscom! I\u2019ve been rocked!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6153\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png?resize=231%2C55\" alt=\"about the author\" width=\"231\" height=\"55\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Susan Griscom writes paranormal and contemporary romance.
