The only person who shares his memories of home is his half-sister Adulfa, but she has spent the centuries sharpening her hatred of Ulric, for it was he who forced her to become a blood-drinker. It matters not to Adulfa that Ulric was also under duress when this tragedy occurred.

Their passion for one another is tragically heightened by the fact that she cannot live forever. And she refuses to accept life everlasting, because becoming a vampire herself will force her to leave Ulric's side to establish her own hunting ground, where she would reign supreme, but alone...

You can get better acquainted with them in my novels, Dark Changeling, Sealed in Blood, and Crimson Dreams , and two novellas, "Night Flight" and "Tall, Dark, and Deadly" (which stars Claude from "Voice from the Void").

Abstract: From Christine Feehan’s Website: The idea for Dark Gold - the story of Alexandria, a hardworking young woman single-handly raising her orphaned brother-came to me when I was watching my daughter send her seven year old son off to school one day.

Like Alexandria, my daughter works hard, goes to school, and rarely socialized so she can spend quality time with her child. She has given up so much in her life, but she treasures him above all else.
Alexandria loves her young brother as fiercely and as protectively as any mother would-and in Dark Gold she must protect Josh from unspeakable dangers, at great peril to herself. Every crucial decision she makes is based on love and willing self-sacrifice. So I've given Alexandria a hero of enormous strength and power-Aidan Savage - a man who can finally make her heart, and her family, whole.

On a starlit highway he found his life changed forever by a creature of the night unlike any he had ever encountered. Unable to deny their destiny, they traveled together through the Parisian underworld on a dangerously erotic journey to right a terrible wrong - even as they were stalked by a merciless hunter intent on destroying them.

Detective Rico Santana wants and needs Skye - for himself, and to track a couple of kids who have gone missing. In all the centuries that Giovanni Banderali has been alive, he's never desired any woman enough to bind her to him as a companion. That changed the moment he saw Skye.

All signs point to Shai as the next victim, but no one, not even the police, will believe or protect her. Out of the darkness comes a man who turns her blood to flame and incites her deepest, darkest desires. But is her dark lover her savior? Or her killer?
Book II - RETRIBUTION Jennifer had a love strong enough for her to betray the man she held dear in order to save him and, once again, succumb to the wishes of her "master," the evil vampire Mikhail. Mac has held thousands of women over hundreds of years, but none ever touched him as deeply as Jen and no one hurt him as much as she did when she tossed him aside. Now Val asks him to work with the one woman he loathes in order to save another. The game begins with a kidnapping, bringing together two people who can't forgive or forget...or can they?

Y

Yarbro, Chelsea Quinn. Series: Saint-Germain

Most of the books in the series have been reprinted and are currently available.
From Vampire Readings: Yarbro's vampire hero, Count Saint-Germain, is an alchemist and apothecary with a life span of more than 3,500 years. The various novels in which he is the protagonist refer to some of those ancient times. Saint-German is a vampire who needs blood as nourishment; carries his native soil with him (even places bits of it in his shoes); casts no reflection; and heals from wounds that would kill a mortal. However he never kills his victims preferring to take only as much blood as he needs. He takes the blood from a willing lover or from a stranger who knows only pleasant dreams as a result. More than just being a nice guy, Saint-Germain strives to do good and to help wherever he can. Multilingual, intelligent, and rich, Saint-Germain always manages to charm his way into the most influential circles of the period. He helps people in distress and is ready to lend a hand, especially if the person is female.
Yarbro's novels always offer rich historical settings. These books are as much historical novels as vampire stories.
