The Best Harlequin Ever Written, July 11 2004

My copy of this book is so old, the pages are yellow and frayed and it's falling apart. But, I faithfully taped this book up and keep it on my shelf. I will never forget this book, and for as long as I can see straight I will always read it at least once a month, just because I love it so much.

Though, there is a slight twist because instead of the usual brooding male Carpathian, we get to see a brooding female Carpathian.

Destiny is conflicted because she's been turned Carpathian by a vampire who murdered her mother and father. The dastardly blood sucker held her hostage, terrorizing and torturing her mind. Yet, she was such a stong pyschic that she was able to link cosmically with a mysterious being who helps her escape.
