Scent of Darkness by Christina Dodd

BLURB:
A thousand years ago, Konstantine Varinski roamed the Russian steppes. Driven by his craving for power, he struck a terrible bargain. In return for the ability to change from a magnificent warrior to a predator that could hunt down his enemies and kill them, he promised his soul — and the souls of his decedents — to the devil.

Plain Ann Smith loves her handsome, dynamic boss, Jasha Wilde, but her daring plan to seduce him goes awry when she finds a black wolf warming itself before the fire. Before her horrified eyes, the wolf changes into the man she adores. She flees, he pursues, but they can’t escape their destinies.

For Jasha is the descendant of Konstantine Varinski and Ann is the woman fated to break the curse that binds his soul. To find heaven in each other’s arms, they have the devil to pay.

FORMAT: Paperback

REVIEW:

I searched this book out because I’d read an excerpt of her most recently published book in this series–I want to read it.  :-)  When I discovered it was part of a series I decided to start at the beginning and am so glad I did.  I loved this story!  I stayed up last night to finish reading it.  Now to get the next one as soon as possible. 

This is my first book I’ve read of Christina Dodd’s.  I loved the paranormal elements to it, mixed with the action.  Definitely going to have to try other books/series by her.
