Angels and Ministers of Grace, defend us...
For her husband, Shakespeare-quoting Dan Cavanaugh, however, that dream has just become a nightmare. His storybook marriage is on the line thanks in part to Deirdre Shelton-Cooper, the runaway daughter of a former girlfriend. Deirdre's intent on proving Dan is her father. When she accidentally hooks up with Dan and Lucy’s son, Seth, Dan is left to wonder: how did their fairy-tale romance turn into a classic Greek tragedy?
It's going to take an entire band of angels to help Oberon's residents straighten things out this time around and bring the Cavenaughs' story to a sweet ending. Lucky for them, that's exactly what's coming to town.
New Year's Eve, 1999. The world is braced for Y2K, but that's not the only ticking time bomb in Conrad's life. Damian wouldn't be the first vampire to find a way to die, but Conrad is determined he will not be one of them.
Present day. Damian struggles to trust that fate could possibly be kind enough to give him a love as perfect as Conrad's. Conrad balances on the keen edge of his own fear that one more slip of his formidable control could drive his lover away--permanently.
Julie learns the hard way it's not just interspecies relationships that seldom work out. Even between vampires, love is not a smooth course.
Meanwhile, intrigue and conflict within the nest continue to grow, fueled in no small part by Georgia's slipping hold on a deadly secret. Marc works to consolidate his position as leader of the ferals--and discovers that being a walking anomaly has certain advantages. Including some that are totally unexpected.
Warning:
Contains more love triangles, more power struggles, more tears and teeth gnashing, and even more graphic scenes of manlove between moody, domestically inclined vampires than in previous editions. Definitely not recommended for anyone suffering from ALSSD (Auld Lang Syne Sensitivity Disorder) or with aversions to ballrooms, evening clothes, sarcasm, or close-quarter stiletto combat.
