The Talisman

The last thing Cassy Thompson and Chandler Raven expected was to find themselves battling a mutual and inexplicable case of Jungle Fever. Or it would be inexplicable, if not for the fact that they are the great grandchildren of Louisiana born and bred lovers who were forced apart by their families near the end of the nineteenth century. Before the ill-fated lovers parted, they exchanged two talismans, which were then passed down to their grandchildren, who used them improperly and spent their lives in an aimless search for love. Now in possession of the talismans, Cassy and Chandler begin having erotic fantasies and dreams of each other. As Cassy slowly succumbs to the lure of her talisman (a small golden figurine of a mating couple), the line between her feelings for Chandler and those of her long dead great grandmother for Chandler's great grandfather blur. Can a couple drawn together by the power of magic remain together or will they, like their grandparents before them, become slaves to the talismans with the same heartbreaking results? Publisher's Note: this title is loosely connected to the Bloodlust series. While a stand alone, it's best enjoyed after Bloodlust: Conquering Mikhel Dumont and before Bloodlust 2: The Taming of Serge Dumont
