Dark Needs at Night's Edge by Kresley Cole
4.0
4 STARS
"Néomi Laress, a famous ballerina from a past century, became a phantom the night she was murdered. Imbued with otherworldly powers but invisible to the living, she haunts her beloved home, scaring away trespassers -- until she encounters a ruthless immortal even more terrifying than Néomi herself.
To prevent him from harming others, Conrad Wroth's brothers imprison him in an abandoned manor. But there, a female only he can see seems determined to drive him further into madness. The exquisite creature torments him with desire, leaving his body racked with lust and his soul torn as he finds himself coveting her for his own. Yet even if Conrad can win Néomi, evil still surrounds her. Once he returns to the brutality of his past to protect her, will he succumb to the dark needs seething inside him" (From Amazon)
To be honest I was not sure what to think of this novel when I heard it involved a ghost. A ghost and a vampire? The worst of the Wroth brother nonetheless. Yet, the novel had me from the beginning and I enjoyed the romance between the two lovers who could not actually make love.
