Falling passionately in love with a mysterious, sinfully sexy man can lead to Something Wicked Investigative reporter Regan Cluny is in hot pursuit of a reclusive philanthropist who is financing a mysterious archaeological dig in the California desert. Attempting to convince Charles Cunningham Nash to grant her an interview has proven impossible long distance, so Regan sets off uninvited for his dig to woo him in person. Instead, she meets with deadly trouble; a biker gang corners her at a remote rest stop, sabotages her car, and leaves her for dead on a country road. Miraculously, Regan survives with only one strange memory of her attack…and the man who comes to her aid is Nash himself. Strongly attracted to her handsome protector, Regan can’t know that Nash is a vampire tied to her attackers by a vicious blood feud that dates back to the Civil War – or that he has hungered for the life and soul of a mortal for nearly two centuries. With the local sheriff determined to nail Nash for the violence perpetrated by his dire enemy, Regan must decide whether the dark secrets of a lover she can’t live without are something wonderful…or something wicked.
