Marius
the vampire fears his father Daniel for good reason as the latter will do
anything to achieve his objective of ruling their species and the inferior
humans. This ruthless vampire would maim
and kill anyone after torturing them including his five children, especially
the three rebelling against him (see Chains Of Darkness and Born In Chains for
the stories of two of the siblings).
Daniel’s minion and Marius vie for control of a gizmo that can kill
vampires.
Though
he cannot perceive how a member of the lesser race is his only chance at
success, Marius knows he needs the assistance of archeology grad student Shayna
Prentiss. When his father’s thugs accost
Shayna, Marius intercedes by kidnapping her and taking her to his secret
hideout. Stunned by the extraordinary
skills of her savior and her wannabe abductees, Shaya is further astonished by
her attraction to Marius as she never falls for “living” males; her preference
being the dead of ancient civilizations.
However her amazement is much less than that of her host who cannot
believe how much he desires a lowly mortal.
Bound by their blood chain and in love, Shaya embraces the vampire
culture with a thirst to know more; while Marius fears what will happen to his
beloved once she enters the combat against his deadly dad.
The
third and final Dark Men in Chains romantic fantasy is a thrilling climax to a pleasant
two cultures colliding trilogy. Although
the initial lead pair in love (beyond saving the world) seems too abrupt, Caris
Roane writes an appealing tale that has the audience rooting for this
enchanting couple.
