Back Cover: He returned from
death…Venerable pharaoh and ancient god of the Nile, Adrian King once sat upon
his throne and led his people nobly, only to be betrayed. But a sacred ritual
has allowed him to reawaken thousands of years after his death – as a vampire.
Now the owner of the Royal Palace, a hotel and casino in Las Vegas, he is
haunted by dreams of a beautiful woman – and by the dawning of an evil
presence. …and brought her fantasies to life. Egyptologist Christine Day is
drawn to the Royal Palace by its breathtaking authenticity. She is the woman
Adrian has been dreaming of, the only one who can evoke real sensual passions
in this fierce warrior and leader. Compelled to share his well-kept secret with
Christine, he puts her at great risk. For others have awakened who will not
rest until Adrian is destroyed again, even if it means taking the only true
love he’s ever known…
This is the first book in the Pharaohs Rising series. Adrian
King was once one of the great pharaoh. A warrior king in fact. But he had no
great love and died young. Christine Day is an Egyptologist who has a true
passion for her work. When the two meet there is true magic. This is one of
those novels to take with you on a long plane ride or if you want something
light to read on a vacation. There is action and romance mixed in with a bit of
danger. I liked it and will look for the second book in the series, Night
Hunger.
