ABOUT THE BOOK
ROGUE DARKNESS
Immortal Guardians Book 12
by Dianne DuvallΒ
Release Date: June 13th, 2023
New York Times bestselling author Dianne Duvall brings readers the next stand-alone novel in her βfast-paced and humorousβ (Publishers Weekly) and βutterly addictiveβ (RT Book Reviews) Immortal Guardians series.
Immortal Guardians have hunted and slain psychotic vampires for thousands of years. Now someone is hunting them. Humanity remains oblivious to the existence of immortals, vampires, and gifted ones, so how does this rising nemesis even know who they are and where to find them? Could it be the machinations of an old nemesisβone they thought they defeated? Or is this something new? Because unlike the foes theyβve faced in the past, this one doesnβt just target immortals. He targets those who are near and dear to them.
A gifted one under the Immortal Guardiansβ protection, Nicole has worked hard to land her dream jobβthat of an Immortal Guardianβs Second or mortal guardβand loves working with Sean. Heβs smart. Heβs funny. And despite the sometimes dark existence he leads, the two of them laugh a lot. Years spent as a special ops soldier prepared Nicole well, enabling her to keep Sean safe despite his tendency to dive headlong into danger. But can it keep her safe? The enemy they face is determined and shrewd. Uncovering his identity may require new methods of engagement and force her to take a few risks.
Sean hasnβt been immortal long, but he knows the rules. And according to the rules, Nicole is off-limits. Sheβs his Second. His guard. His best friend. The one person who knows him better than anyone else. Though he loves every minute he spends with her, friendship is all they can ever have… isnβt it? Sean soon begins to question that as the two of them engage in a deadly cat-and-mouse game with the enemy, one that will reveal the true depth of their feelings for each other and drive him to abandon the rules altogether
Excerpt
βWell, yeah,β she said with a distinct duh inflection. βI mean, if I donβt sleep with you, who will? Look at you. All those muscles. That chiseled jaw. Those gorgeous brown eyes. And youβre smart, too? What woman would possibly want that?β
He grinned. βYou?β
βDamn!β she exclaimed in mock frustration. βI thought I was hiding it better than that.β
Dipping his head, he pressed an exuberant kiss to her lips. His brown eyes were somber, however, when they met hers. βAll kidding asideβ¦β
Her heart flip-flopped in her chest.
βI do have a lot of muscles, a chiseled jaw, and gorgeous brown eyes.β
Laughing, she gave him a hard shove. βNot so smart, though, are you? Clearly, I was wrong about that.β
When she tried to clamber over him to get out of bed, he locked his arms around her. βOh no, you donβt. You canβt leave now. I want more compliments.β He tickled her ribs. Helpless giggles poured forth as she squirmed and tried to keep his fingers from finding ticklish spots, but he was merciless. βGive me more compliments!β
βNo!β she refused with a laugh. βLet me go, you egomaniac!β
βNever,β he declared with a grin, tickling more giggles from her. When he finally stopped, she sprawled on top of him, gasping for air.
A warm smile bathed his face as he watched her. Reaching up, he brushed her mussed hair back from her face. βNever,β he whispered.
Nicole stared at him. Did he mean β¦?
Was that love she saw in his eyes? More than the love one felt for a friend?
Her heart began to beat faster.
