Summary: Storyline info
Review: DARK OBSESSION - Amanda Stevens Horror novelist Erin Ramsey's latest bestseller brought a dark
and tormented vampire into her readers' worlds. But such dark
and tormented heroes existed only in her imagination. Or so
she thought.
How wrong Erin had been. Now her sister was dead, the victim
of a shadowy stranger. Detective Nick Slade had promised to
help find the killer. But who was he really? Cloaked in secrecy, his eyes always masked by sunglasses, Nick
embodied Erin's darkest nightmares -- her most erotic
fantasies. Helplessly, she was drawn into a murky, midnight
world where nothing was as it seemed, where a man could be
protector -- or predator.

Summary: Loved this before, love it even more now . . .
Review: I remember being disappointed with this book when it came out in 1995 as Silhouette Shadows Number 48. It came out the same month as Maggie Shayne's Twilight Illusions. That probably didn't help this one. It came off better now but still wasn't that great. It's not really a vampire romance like Maggie Shayne or Linda Lael Miller write where vampires are romantic heroes. This is more a romantic suspense that has a story about vampires. In Dark Obsession, vampires are evil and must be destroyed, and being one is a horrible thing. Erin's sister was murdered by one, and now she wants to catch him. It's not a bad idea but it's not what I'm looking for in a vampire romance. The author also drags out the hero's secret way too long after most readers will have guessed it and Erin should have. Amanda Stevens's other 'vampire romance' for Silhouette Shadows, The Perfect Kiss, was better. Vampires are evil and horrible in it too but it takes a more unique approach with a female vampire looking for redemption and a love she can't have. I would recommend it if you can find it.

Summary: MY 1ST TIME READING ONE OF HER BOOKS BUT NOT THE LAST
Review: In all the romance novels I have read, this was the first time reading one by Amanda Stevens. You rest assured it will definitely not be my last. Once again this is a Dreamscapes series novel that takes of from the first page and grips you till then end. If you are like me and get bored with reading the same old romance story with just a change of the location and the names of the characters then you will really enjoy reading this book! It is a romance with a twist toward the paranormal....a great combination!!!

Review: Mark my words, someday soon the name Amanda Stevens will be as well-known as Sandra Brown. Ms. Stevens is that talented. I read this book years ago when it was first published and loved it. Unfortunately, I lent my copy to a friend and never got it back, so I was pleased to see it reappear under the Dreamscape imprint (gorgeous cover!). And in re-reading it, I remembered why I'd loved it the first time. The imagery is so vivid, the writing so lush, the atmosphere so dark and delicious--you almost feel as if you're right there. More, more, more! Don't ever stop writing, Ms. Stevens. You're wonderful!

Summary: A hero to die for!
Review: The hero in this book is incredible! He reminds me of the lead on ANGEL. If you like the TV show, you'll love this book. Nick Slade is every bit as compelling and tortured as Angel. Great story!
