Book Review By Debbie
Temptation: Shadow Dweller 6 by J.C. Wilder

Damien "Sinjin" St. James had fled his native Scotland to hide out in New Orleans. He was devastated that the love of his life had been brutally murdered by a rogue vampire. Sure that he would never find another love like her, he immersed himself in his work - restoring an old bar/restaurant to its former glory. But when Vivian Carrington walked into his restaurant, Sinjin definitely noticed. At first, he was only interested in a brief fling, but the more he got to know the mysterious Vivian, the more he was interested in her staying around for a while. However, there were complications. First off, Vivian thought that Sinjin was involved with a sexy werewolf thief who had stolen the journal that the whole shadow dweller world was looking for and second, someone kept trying to kill Vivian. With enemies both human, werewolf, vampire, revenant, witch and who knows what else, Sinjin has his hands full getting the lovely Vivian to fall in love with him.
