I love Gena Showalter, her novels, and her deliciously delightful Lords of the Underworld. I must say she completely out did herself with 'Darkest Passion'. I thought the story line was more intense (and the love making hotter)! I laughed, I cried, I fell in love over and over in this fast paced novel. Oh Aeron, I think you just may be my favorite from the Underworld...for now. ;)
