Dark Needs at Night's Edge by Kresley Cole

“When I think about kissing anyone, I imagine you. The chemistry is electric, and even though there’s no physical action going on, that doesn’t mean that things don’t get hot!

OMG! For a series that is usually highly smutty, the fact that Conrad and Naomi aren’t able to act on their desires doesn’t mean this book doesn’t follow suit. And even though they can’t touch, that doesn’t stop them developing feelings for each other or experiencing some wicked sexual tension. And with them left alone with each other in the manor for extended periods, they start to grow close. They are able to communicate, her presence soothes him in a way that nothing else can, and he starts to regain himself. Since her brutal death she has remain trapped in her beloved home as a ghost, unable to communicate with those that live there over the decades.Īlready you can see where this is going, right? Yes, Conrad, in his madness, is the first person to see Naomi. Naomi Laress was a famous ballerina until she was murdered by an obsessed ex-lover back in the 1920s. Determined to help bring him back from the madness, but resolved to ending his misery if he is unable to reclaim himself. And after hundreds of years of this existence, the madness is almost out of control.Ĭonrad’s brothers are desperate to help him, and so they abduct him and essentially imprison him in an abandoned manner. A Lore assassin, he kills by drinking his victims to death, thereby taking in their memories.

Brother to Nikolai and Sebastian (who have already had their stories told in the series), Nikolai is crazed by bloodlust. Book 5 in the Immortals After Dark series brings us the story of vampire, Conrad Wroth.
