Crimson Ties

Scientist Joanna Eastman knew better, but she couldn't help her fascination with vampires — those dangerous creatures who existed only in fantasy, right? Her own extensive research, coupled with dreams so powerful they felt more like memories, drew Joanna to attend a vampire gala ball. Instead of role-playing, faux vamps, she encountered someone who could well be the real thing…and the key to her dreams.Anton Mahler, one of the true kin — as vampires call themselves — has roamed the Earth for centuries, easily conquering vampire and mortal women alike with his dazzling looks and devastating charm. Yet his heart always remained carefully sealed, frozen in time with the loss of his one true love. When Anton stumbled across the lovely Joanna, something resonated deep within him — a connection so abiding, so pure, he knew somehow his long-lost love had returned.
