| Cherise Sartori is a jaded heiress to the biggest jewelry empire in the world. She’s done it all and is on her way to Rio to attend a wild party among her jet-set friends. She agrees to do her uncle a favor and deliver a locked briefcase to one of his clients. But she has barely left the jet before everything begins to go wrong. She thinks being kidnapped is the worst that could happen until she finds out the crazy woman who is the mastermind of the plot. The kidnappers believe the Sartori family has ties to legendary societies of the undead and they decide to use Cherise to wake an ancient vampire. Cherise isn’t about to go down easy, she will fight for her ! freedom even when a cocky, handsome archaeologist proves to be a more dangerous distraction!
Loose Diamonds is a fast paced romance with paranormal overtones that I couldn’t put down! Cherise is a feisty heroine who doesn’t know the meaning of giving up. There would be plenty of adventures for her and Leif, the sexy rogue archaeologist, even if there wasn’t a kinky evil villainess who believes in a mystery that involves ancient vampire temples. This was a totally entertaining romp that is reminiscent of the spirit of the Tomb Raider or Underworld movies, except the hot sex scenes weren’t cut from this story! Leif and Cherise strike sexy sparks, aggravating each other from the first moments they meet. But their passions really flare up when they are thrown together in a desperate partnership to survive the crazy situation. The action packed conclusion will keep you on the! edge of your seat! This was a great combination of adventure, ancient legends and thrilling romance. Loose Diamonds is a jewel for sure. I will definitely look forward to the next book by Daria Karpova.
