River Bend - Present Day

John Raven, oldest brother and leader of the Raven Clan, and his brother, Eric, are heading for Chicago to infiltrate and destroy the Clutch of Devlin Morse. What is a clutch you ask? It's a family of four to five vampires. John and his brothers are vampire hunters, but they give the appearance of being bloodsuckers making it easy for them to enter a clutch and kill every single one. This time, however, John's plan doesn't work like he expects it to. Devlin Morse gives John a task and until it's completed Eric will stay with them while John goes to River Bend. John is supposed to bring one Madison Woods to Devlin so he can find out how she knows so much about them. Unfortunately for John, Madison sparks not only his interest, but his libido, and now John finds himself in a dilemma...protecting Madison and trying to free Eric.

Madison Woods has finally shaken off the "wild child" image that the folks of River Bend have of her and she's given them another one, published author. On Halloween night Madison is sitting with the respected citizens watching the parade go by when she spots a shadow across the street watching her. When he steps into the streetlight Madison's breath is taken away. He's tall, dark, handsome and definitely not what she needs in her life right now if she's to remain respectable. That doesn't stop her from fantasizing about the gorgeous hunk. Of course, when Madison finds him waiting by her car all she can think about is getting him into bed. No! No! No! You are a respectable girl. You cannot be seen with John Raven, even if he is irresistible. Madison has a feeling she's met John before and then one night it hits her. He's the epitome of her hero in the vampire book she wrote. But how?

The attraction between John and Madison is potent and exciting. However, John can't forget his reason for being there. When Devlin shows up and takes an interest in Madison, John sees red. First off that means Devlin has left Eric in the clutches of the only female vampire in his clan, and she wants to bite Eric bad. Number two...now John has to protect Madison from Devlin while trying to keep her in the dark about what's going on.

Rhiannon Neeley's JOHN is a fascinating, scintillating erotic romance with a touch of danger to give it an edge that makes a reader hot. Well, it did me anyway. <g> John looks the part of a vampire, all alpha male, sensuous and too delicious to ignore. When he meets Madison for the first time, John sees the wildness she hides beneath the surface and he wants some of that. Madison grew up doing things that shocked the town but she's outgrown that wild phase...or has she? John brings out everything she tries to keep hidden and that frightens Madison. I have to tell you, though, I didn't really like her parents too well. The little bit of interaction with them left a bitter taste in my mouth. They were so critical of Madison it made me mad. The sexual attraction between Madison and John is instantaneous, torrid, and oh, so very hot. Secondary characters include John's brothers, Eric and Dirk, and Madison's friend, Leah, although the story mainly revolves around John and Madison.
