Conner Buchanan is almost a century old. He's tired, lonely, and
bitter over a past he can't change, and that makes him dangerous.
He takes too many risks when it comes to his own safety, but then
again he's a vampire. While searching for a Malcontent, one of the
evil vampires, he comes across an injured woman. He teleports her
back to Romatech to
get her help, never realizing she is the "Angel Of Death."
Marielle loves being an angel. Sure she makes mistakes, but she
tries hard to make up for her shortcomings. Only this time her mistake
gets her wings torn off. When she awakens, she finds the fascinating
and brogue-inflected man to be fearless. He's not afraid to touch
her, and doesn’t immediately succumb to death as all other
humans have done when exposed to Marielle.
Yet, she knows he is hiding a secret, and it's not just the fact
he has fangs, but something from his past that is literally stealing
his soul away. The longer Connor is around Marielle the more he
finds himself falling for her. Love is something he's scoffed at
for centuries,
and nothing can come of loving an angel—especially when a
demon tries to take her to hell. His only hope is a God whom he
is sure despises him. Conner prays that when the battle is over,
Marielle will not be one of the casualties, for if she dies, so
will his last chance at redemption.
Ms. Sparks is just as fabulous with this tenth book in her series
as with the first. Romance, sensuality, and conflict all play a
part in “Vampire Mine.” Readers who love a bit of bite
with their romance will fall in love with Conner and Marielle.
