Release Date: 2nd Oct 2008Sumptious vampire thriller with a cherry on top...
Your best friend has gone missing, presumed kidnapped and without her you fear you will lose any control over your rages that leave a trail of more corpses than a cat set loose in a rat infested house. Your ever elusive and yet socially prominent father decides to help you find her - provided you do a little something for him first, it's not much... just track down his brother... but then, not everyone's brother is Dracula.
Dorina (Dory) is a dhampir - half human, half vampire - with the social finesse of a bull with a red flag in permanent residence in front of its eyes and fortunately, the fighting prowess to deal with the consequences. Her magical friend, Claire, has been missing for a month and Dory has reached fever pitch - with sources suggesting that she has not only been kidnapped but that she may be pregnant - she knows she has to act and act fast. If that means squaring up against the nightmare that is Dracula again, then so be it. She's not alone though, her father provides her with the tantalisingly gorgeous Louis-Cesare.
Within the backdrop of a major war between the Dark and the Light going on, the lines of friendship and loyalty are blurred and Dory is forced to look within for answers - about her mother's murder, her father, her past.
Burgeoning with every conceivable magical being from mage to Vampire, troll to Fey - Midnight's Daughter is a veritable feast for lovers of the paranormal. Glorious fight scenes, eerily still moments of fractured memories, steamy romps that set the heart pounding; it is little wonder that Chance has caught the attention of so many fans of this genre. She delivers in every way - utterly staggering.
