The Prince's Angel (Legends of the Romanorum, #1)

Review Kiernan Kelly, author of Riding Heartbreak Road , writes: From the first page of this thrilling novel we are swept into a world frighteningly similar to our own, with one exception: the creatures of the night have ''come out,'' living openly among us. For the most part, humans and vampires live in peace, each governed by both human law and a strict code of conduct presided over by vampire royals. In London, Prince Mael Black governs the body of vampires that make their home there, keeping order and administering justice as needed. Threatening Black's authority, and humankind's safety, is a group of rogue vampires who seek to destroy him. Human-killers, they flaunt the laws established to keep peace between the two species. Enter Cian Carmichael. As golden as the sun, the polar opposite of Mael Black's dark beauty, Cian is an angelic vampire killer whose heavenly mission is to seek out and destroy rogue vampires. The need to keep his nature secret becomes a problem when Cian, through a series of unusual circumstances, finds himself with the need to seek out Mael Black's aid. Chemistry sizzles between the two from the first moment they meet. Unlikely bedfellows, unlikelier comrades-in-arms, each tries as hard as he can, but neither can withstand the fierce passions that threaten to consume them. When they finally come together, the pages smoke with the heat of their encounters. The cast of richly developed, intensely interesting characters in A PRINCE'S ANGEL makes this tale leap from the pages and capture the reader's imagination in a tight fist that doesn't loosen until the very last page. Thrills, chills, and electrifying sex enrich a plot that will have you itching to turn the page, desperate to see it through to its conclusion. Product Description In present day London, vampires live side-by-side with mortals living under two sets of laws. The Romanorum make the vampire rules, helping the Princes who rule the cities. Not all vampires are thrilled with the system. A rash of rogue vampires--vampires who have killed mortals--has descended upon London, and it is up to London's vampire prince, Mael Black, to bring them under control. When he learns who is truly behind the rogues, however, Mael's task becomes more complicated than he would like. His only choice is to turn to a sorcerer of questionable reputation--Cian Carmichael. But Cian is more than he seems to be, and despite the dangers inherent in becoming involved with him, Mael finds he is unable to resist. Cian is an angel, sent to bring the rogue vampires under control. Acquiring a reputation as a vampire hunter, Cian becomes notorious in the city Mael rules. The last thing he expects is to fall in love with the prince of the London vampires himself. Can these two deal with their growing attachment, and save London from the threat it faces?
