Dimitri, also known as the Earl of Corvindale, should be delighted that the headstrong Maia Woodmore is getting married. His mortal ward and houseguest has annoyed—and bewitched—the Dracule nobleman too long, and denying his animal cravings grows more excruciating by the day.
Miss Woodmore's family has a rather…complicated history with the immortals and she herself possesses a keen sensibility far beyond mere women's intuition. Marriage will give her safety, respectability and everything else a proper young lady could wish for. Everything, that is, except passion.
In the looming battle between Dracule factions, all pretenses will shatter as Maia and Dimitri come together in an unholy union of danger, desperation and fiercest desire.

Wounded but determined, Narcise ensnares vampire hunter Chas Woodmore in her quest for revenge and to reclaim her life. He wants her, worships her, will kill for her. And the Dracule never forget a wrong— nor do they forgive.
Voss, also known as Viscount Dewhurst, relishes the sensual pleasures immortality affords. A member of the Dracule—a cabal of powerful, secretive noblemen marked with a talisman that reveals their bartered souls—the mercenary Voss has remained carefully neutral…until Angelica.
Angelica Woodmore possesses the Sight, an ability invaluable to both sides of a looming war among the Dracule. Her very scent envelops Voss in a scarlet fog of hunger—for her body and her blood. But he is utterly unprepared for the new desire that overcomes him—to protect her.
Now Voss must battle his very nature to be with Angelica…but this vampire never backs down from a fight.
After narrowly escaping Rome with her mortality, vampire hunter Lady Victoria Gardella Grantworth de Lacey returns to London—where not even sunrise can stop a vampire’s carnage. Not only is Victoria unable to detect the vampire with her heightened senses, but she’s being framed as the prime suspect behind the killings.
Meanwhile, the legacy of a vampire’s touch has left his blood boiling in her veins and forces her to fight evil on two fronts—against the new breed of undead threatening London and the darkness within herself…
Збор твораў у 2 тамах выдатнай беларускай пісьменніцы Ларысы Геніюш (1910-1983) выдаецца да 100-годдзя з дня яе нараджэння. Гэты двухтомнік – самае поўнае, жанрава разнастайнае, тэксталагічна апрацаванае і пракаментаванае выданне яе спадчыны. Першы том склалі вершы і паэмы, скампанаваныя: храналагічна – паводле выдадзеных пры жыцці аўтаркі кніг; тэматычна – на аснове пасмяротных публікацый. Датрыманне храналагічнага прынцыпу аказалася немагчымым, паколькі паэтка вельмі рэдка датавала свае вершы. Датаванне паводле першапублікацый мела сэнс толькі адносна твораў, надрукаваных у 1940-1944 гг.; пачынаючы з 50-х гадоў вершы Л. Геніюш траплялі ў друк ад выпадку да выпадку. У першыя чатыры раздзелы ўвайшлі выбраныя творы з трох прыжыццёвых зборнікаў – “Ад родных ніў” (Прага, 1942), “Невадам з Нёмана” (Менск, 1967), “На чабары настоена” (Менск, 1982), а таксама са зборніка “Вершы 1945—1947 гг.”, які быў надрукаваны ў Лондане ў 1992 г. па рукапісе, падрыхтаваным яшчэ самой аўтаркай.
Двухтомнік славутай дачкі беларускай зямлі Ларысы Геніюш пабачыў свет у стагоддзе з дня яе нараджэння. Публікацыя ўвабрала ў сябе не толькі паэзію, але таксама прозу. Уключае зборнік і эпісталярную спадчыну паэткі. Другі том юбілейнага двухтомніка Ларысы Геніюш складаецца з двух раздзелаў – “Проза” і “З эпісталярнай спадчыны (1943-1983)”. У празаічны раздзел увайшлі аўтабіяграфічны нарыс “Сто ранаў у сэрца”, які ў кніжных выданнях не друкаваўся, і дакументальная аповесць “Споведзь”. У эпісталярным раздзеле друкуюцца 160 лістоў паэткі да знаёмых і сяброў, большая частка з іх – упершыню. З лістоў Ларысы Геніюш можна даведацца вельмі шмат таго, чаго нельга прачытаць у кнігах, у літаратурных і гістарычных даследаваннях, ва ўспамінах. Гэтыя лісты каштоўныя дэталямі, якія звычайна губляюцца ў памяці, каштоўныя эмоцыямі паэткі...
