Nocturne — Elizabeth Donald

Nocturnal Urges -
It's the most popular club in the Memphis nightlife. Part legal bordello, part feeding ground for the city's vampires, Nocturnal Urges offers pleasure and pain in one sweet kiss. It's the ultimate addiction - both drug and sex at once. For the vampires, it's the only way to survive in a world where the creatures of the night are a dark underclass, ignored until the humans need another fix. Into this world comes Isabel Nelson, seeking only a night's pleasure. But after Isabel's lover Duane takes her to try the bite, she cannot stop thinking about Ryan, the dark vampire with whom she shared her lifeblood. Soon Isabel finds herself in the dark heat of a world where passion and love are miles apart, where life and un-life have little meaning - and someone is hunting in the shadows.
