Vampire and Dhamphir in Love?

So, with a potential death sentence over her head, Marya leads a rather lonely life, not wanting to get too involved with anyone. She hates the vampires even more for this, even though she doesn't have her father's need to kill any of them. The council sends L'Enforcier, Drago to give her her final evaluation. Drago, is tired of running errands and just to be contrary, grants her life. Marya is relieved and starts her life anew. Until another Enforcer arrives to tell her that Drago has reversed her decision. Furious and with nothing to lose, she sets out to kill Drago. The only problem is, Drago didn't reverse his decision, and has to keep her with him to protect he while he finds out who really gave the erroneous orders.This was a fast moving novel, with almost no break in the action. I read it in one sitting.

Supernatural romance readers and vampire lovers will enjoy this novel and look joyfully forward to more fables set in the Roycraft universe. This is one novel that is perfect in every, something few books are.Harriet Klausner

MyShelf.com Book Reviewer

He had the power to grant her life or death . . . Alek 'Drago' Dragovich was known as the l'enforcier, the Anti-God for the Undead. His darkened reputation characterized him as an unmerciful ruler that was the epitome of beauty and unlimited strength. His word alone would be the final deciding factor of whether aberration Marya Jaks lived or died. Upon meeting Marya, he immediately senses the threat she poses to him and the brotherhood. Tradition would have him terminate her existence immediately, but a deeper feeling is able to convince him she deserves life. Would he live to regret his decision? She is an endangerment to his society . . . Gypsy Marya Jaks's entire life had been put on hold in anticipation of the final day when she would learn if she were to have a future. Having been the daughter of a dhampir, she has the cunning ability to detect vampires. Such a skill as this would allow her to become a very successful vampire hunter. When she wakes from a deep slumber and finds the infamous Drago in her bedroom, she fears the end is certainly near. She is stunned when Drago unexpectedly gives her the gift of life. Upon gazing into his blank soulless eyes, she is drawn in by a sadness that is locked deep inside a bottomless depth. What they offer and suggest is both frightening and tantalizing. She knows before her is a man who will either be the death of her body or the salvation of her soul. Jaye Roycraft writes with bone chilling hypnotic words that ultimately demand the reader's full attention. I feel with such writing skills as she so effortlessly exhibits, paranormal writers worldwide should be aware of the magnitude of competition they are to soon face. I feel honored and privilege to have been selected to read and review such a memorable novel. I predict the name Jaye Roycraft will one day become an every day household name.

The Perfect Hero

Ever since I read about Drago in Double Image, I've been waiting for his story. Dark, compelling, and so sexy - so what if he's a vampire? Actually, that's one of his facets that's so intriguing. How does a vampire get to his great age and still have motivation for 'living'? Drago nearly loses his, until he meets Marya, the aberration. Who would have guessed someone so repellant to vampires would be the one person he could love with all his heart (undead though it is)? Lush with the richness of vampire culture, heavy with the threat of dark enemies, and hot with the passion of love between two beings meant for each other, AfterImage is a book I want to read again...and again...and again.
