Read what the reviewers are saying...
"4 Hearts!...This story is all about the thrill of
the hunt and tons of sex. There is not a whole lot of plot
to be found here, but then this tale isn?t supposed to be
focused on story. The sex scenes are plentiful and hot,
full of enough passion and heat to singe the fingers of
the reader. Callandra and Nicholas delight in their games
of seduction. They love the thrill of the 'chase' with their
prey, and use all manners of techniques to lure them in.
Their excitement is tangible and readers will revel in it
with them. One thing in particular this reviewer loved about
the story is the vivid imagery. Ms. Bridger uses exquisite
detail to paint the picture of her character?s surroundings.
She is so talented at filling in the specifics that readers
will see, feel, hear, and taste everything along with Callandra
and Nicholas. It takes skill to be able to do this as well
as the author does, and everyone will be able to appreciate
that aspect of the story. In short, The Hunt is a short,
hot, sexy read that will tantalize readers into wanting
a continuation of the tale."—Kelley, Love Romances
"3 Cups!...Will give you a different outlook on the
attitudes and habits of vampires. This book is short, sweet,
and directly to the point. For all vampire lovers, this
is the book for you."—Suz, Coffee Time Romance
"4 Hearts!...A deep, dark tale, in some parts quite
violent when describing the nature of vampires. Ms. Bridger
writes very descriptive prose that brings the reader into
the nature of the story, vividly describing emotions, feelings
and atmosphere. This reviewer was drawn in right away and
was totally held captive by the suspense of this short,
powerful story. The characters are well written and the
story is a quick, but emotional read. Callandra is a woman
whose presence commands attention. As for the violence,
it may not be for some people, but this reviewer found it
fascinating and in keeping with the dark mood. Vampires
suck blood and sometimes it?s not just a little bit. This
is also a very erotic tale as the two vampires reach fulfillment
while taking blood, whether from each other or their victim.
This short story is not for the squeamish, but it is so
well written, so fascinating, that this reviewer couldn't
do anything else but give it well deserved praise."—Valerie,
Love Romances
"4 ? Stars!...A sizzling dark and erotic love story
between two ambitious vampires. The sex scenes are so scorching
that I could not put the book down until I got to the last
page. Denyse M. Bridger blazes a fiery tale that will surely
leave you breathless."—Tee, May 2004 Reviews
Read a short excerpt...
...Inside, the bar was dark and turbid. Her eyes flared
for several heartbeats, then her preternatural vision sharpened
and defined shapes and shadows with vivid clarity. Nicholas
had arrived before her. The stairwell echoed weirdly with
the hammering beat of the music, and she floated up into
the dark room.
At the top of the stairs, she paused again. Unnecessary
breaths were quickened with excitement and anticipation.
The fiery red light above her head sent tendrils of light
spiraling outward, the crimson streaks of bloody colour
glinting off chrome and being absorbed by the shadows. A
powerful strobe turned the dancers into frantic marionettes
as they let the madness of the primal music carry them into
their own private darknesses.
A flicker of reddish blond caught her eye, and she pierced
the murky atmosphere without thought, saw him smile at her
from across the room. Her body tingled with greater exhilaration,
and she shivered unconsciously. Already, she could feel
his hands on her skin, inciting a hunger that no one else
could feed.
She brushed past the few people who lingered near the top
of the stairs, skirted around the metal bars that gave the
place such a distinctive look. By the time she reach the
spot, he'd vanished. Furious and frustrated, she whirled
around and scanned the crowd more closely. Again, his pale
presence drew her instantly. One slightly arched eyebrow
rose in amused challenge.
"Your game is intriguing, love," she whispered,
and knew he'd hear her despite the deafening music.
::And which role do you prefer to play? Predator or
prey?:: His answer whispered inside her head, and she
grinned.
::What does it matter? It always ends the same, and
I have never objected.::
