Four New Orleans vampires, each searching for their destined life-mate…

Alonso answers the mental call of Jolie, a fortune teller and psychic, when she is threatened by another vampire. He must bond with her and make her his before the dangerous demoni scuri forces her to his will.

Lucius longs for a woman to match his animalistic needs, one who could tame the beast he has become over the centuries. One night, he finds her roaming the Louisiana bayou, but Tala is of an ancient race. And perhaps more animalistic than he…

Leonardo is drawn to the dark alleys of New Orleans by the call of a dying comrade, only to come face to face with his life-mate, Erin—a vampire slayer. They must find common ground before lust—and love—can rule their nights.

Raife is beckoned by a witch's spell, an entreaty to love and pleasure. He is helpless to resist. Soon, he will find that the magic of Yvette, a French Creole witch, holds more in store for him than one night of sensual bliss.


"4 Angels...a very wonderful read...I recommend you read it for yourself, and let it carry you into the darkness of love and pleasure."
~Fallen Angel Reviews

"4 1/2 Kisses...Marianne LaCroix is a talented author who has combined four intriguing stories into one superb novel. From one short novella to the next, I couldn’t put the book down. From compelling characters, dangerous situations, to murder and mayhem, each character has to overcome both internal and external conflicts to gain the love of their mates...I will definitely be looking for this authors work in the future."
~Romance Divas

"5 Nymphs, Golden Blush Recommended Read...LaCroix has done it once again with vividly bringing all the characters in Descendants of Darkness to life like few authors can do. Not only are the characters and story line excellent and very detailed, but the sex scenes are about as hot as you'll find anywhere."
~Literary Nymphs

"...Marianne LaCroix has done herself proud by uniting and expanding the shorter stories into a single long volume that follows the lives of four denizens of the night, Alonso, Lucius, Leonardo and Raife in pursuit of their respective life mates....A light entertaining read, these tales enjoy sensuality and heat as well as interesting characters of the paranormal variety. I was thrilled to see these stories released together as a single volume..."
~Eternal Night

"4 Blue Ribbons...DESCENDANTS OF DARKNESS reminds me of a mini anthology and the best part of all is that it is written by one author, Marianne LaCroix. I found it to be very interesting that all four male vampires were linked to one another. Each paranormal characteristic tangled with the magical fragment presented a wonderful blend of uniqueness and similarities throughout this read. At the end of each short story, you will understand a vampire’s desire to be with his life-mate and the lengths at which he will go to be with her."
~Romance Junkies

Read an excerpt

Johann is convinced he was to remain alone for eternity. When an oracle reveals his destined life-mate, Johann is hesitant. A dream encounter with her tempestuous body—and her luscious mouth—changes his mind.

Kira doesn’t take too kindly to Johann appearing and claiming her as his life-mate. However, her body has a will of its own and succumbs to his masterful touch—discovering passion can spark love. And when Lucius, Johann’s brother, appears, Kira is then seduced into a fantasy come true—a ménage with two powerful and sexy vampires.

*Note #1: This is a prequel to Descendants of Darkness.
*Note #2: This is a revision of "Mistress of Midnight". The story has been COMPLETELY changed.

"4 1/2 Stars...I loved Ms. Lacroix sexy vampire story. She made me want to read more...I must confess: I had not read the first one but I will, there is no question! Eternal Embrace is well written and Marianne Lacroix's story is balanced between emotion, passion and strong characters. I am definitively hooked on her and I will follow her career."
