Laith Moreland, the Third Duke of Crichton died together with his true love, Lady Cassandra Belstowe when his twin brother, Jareth got a witch to cause an accident.  The witch, wanting Jareth for herself cursed Laith to stay as a ghost on the earth, searching for his love who will one day be born again.  She also bonded them as soul mates.  The only way Jareth could claim Cassandra is to get to her first.  Jareth, in order to stay immortal until that time, had the witch turn him into a vampire.  When Laith finally finds Cassandra, who is now Cassie, he has to wait until the full moon to be able to join with her and break the curse, allowing him to stay human and be with her again.  But Jareth is hot on the trail and is determined to use his likeness to Laith to claim Cassie before they can join.  Two brothers want the same woman, but only one can survive. 

Rebecca Goings can write a dark, spooky story that will give her fans and readers a thrill.  She has written characters that leap off the page and a villain who will thrill and chill.  The conflict between the twin brothers palpitates with hate and jealousy.  Jareth will do anything to claim Cassie for himself.  The plot is breathtaking, keeping the reader scrolling those cyber pages as fast as she can.  There are certainly some nice sizzles in this story as Cassie remembers Laith and the soul mate bond strengthens between them.  It would have been nice if Jareth could have had some redemption.  This reviewer enjoyed this story very much and was already a firm fan of Rebecca Goings’ writing.  She always gives her reader a story to remember and characters that the reader will be thinking about for a while.  This reviewer is looking forward to the next book from this talented writer and does hope it won’t be too long in coming.
