Awaiting the Night — Donna Lea Simpson

From the national bestselling author of Awaiting the Moon comes a spellbinding romance about a man who's hiding from his past, the woman who gives him hope for the future -- and the legend that could destroy them both...

Alarmed by the wolves who haunt her dreams, beautiful Melisande Davidovich can't help but be intrigued by the handsome stranger who's mysteriously appeared at Wolfram Castle. In spite of the dark secret he is obviously hiding -- and the danger he may pose -- Count Kazimir Vasilov captivates Melisande's body and soul...

Tormented by the mistakes of his past, Count Kazimir Vasilov has come to the castle on a dangerous mission: to stop a deadly legend from coming true. Melisande is a distraction he can't afford -- can she be deliberately obstructing him from his goal? He suspects Melisande may know more than she seems to, and Kazimir is reluctant to let down his guard for fear of falling under her enchanting spell...

But when Melisande's life is endangered by a madman who'll do anything to wreak havoc, Kazimir must find a way to save her -- without awakening the disaster the legend portends...
