(sorry, Lara. Couldn’t resist the title :giggle: )

My wonderful friend and rockin’ talented author, Lara Adrian, just hit the USA Today Bestseller list AND #6 on the New York Times Bestseller list with MIDNIGHT RISING, the 4th book in her Midnight Breed series!!!! (Read all about the series and all the book here at Lara’s website)

Lara is an amazingly talented author, and a great friend. She lets me have advance peeks at each book in this series, and believe me when I say that I devour each one like a ravenous dog. Each book gets better. Her storytelling is incredible, and the characters are rich with depth, emotion and smokin hot chemistry. This vampire series is one the best to come along in years, and if you haven’t read these books yet, run, don’t walk to your nearest bookseller and grab them.

I’m so lucky to know Lara, and to count her as one of my friends. I can only hope to someday acquire half the talent she possesses as a writer. I stand in awe of her, as well as celebrate her well deserved triumphs like this one!

Congrats darlin’! :cheer:

First, The Darkest Touch cover has had a little minor tweaking. Still gorgeous though, huh?

I’ve also received back cover copy for the book and I just love it!

Ryder. The man was just as sexy as she remembered him:

Tall, lean and dangerous, a demon hunter with the body of a god…

But archaeologist Angelique Deveraux has little time for lust. She’s been hiding a gleaming black diamond, a prize everyone wants—including Ryder—and now she’s running for her life. Hot on her trail is Ryder, a legendary demon hunter she desires but can’t quite trust, a man with an insatiable need for danger and a few dark secrets of his own…

As sparks ignite between the rogue hunter and his latest prey, Angie’s world is rocked again when her twin sister vanishes, stolen away by the same dark forces stalking Angie and the black diamond. With Ryder offering protection— and more —suddenly a woman who’s never trusted anyone is falling for a man who isn’t afraid of anything…except losing his heart. Now, as an all-out demon war erupts and Angie’s family secrets unravel, Ryder’s demon-hunt and Angie’s quest to save her sister are about to collide. And when they do, it’ll send these two wary hearts on the wildest adventure of their lives—and maybe even save humankind in the process…

The Darkest Touch is the third Demon Hunters book, and releases Oct 28th from Bantam Dell. You can read more about the Demon Hunters series here.
