Redemption

THE BEAUTY...
Lovely, talented actress Gabriela Rozina vowed to make her mark on the stage, to triumph over her wretched childhood as an orphan. No one understood the ambition that kept her rehearsing until midnight, alone in London's Drury Lane Theatre. Only she wasn't alone. He was there, a handsome stranger whose burning eyes both terrified and tantalized her and whose powerful sensuality filled her with a dizzying, nameless desire.

THE BEAST...
He was a creature of the night, a monster damned for eternity. For three hundred years, Marcus Danewell had existed without knowing the tenderness of a woman. Until Gabriela lured him from his subterranean hiding place with her spirit and ravishing beauty. He hungered for her kisses, and, heaven help him, her blood. Desperately, he struggled against temptation to make her his, to initiate her into the ways of the damned; yet he was drawn to her by a passion...a passion that could cost Gabriela her earthly soul or give Marcus back what he thought he'd lost forever -- the chance to love.
