Archipellus: God of Samhain (A Sons of Herne romance)

How can he embrace love when his very touch brings death?Archipellus is the god of Samhain, the holiest--and most dangerous--of all the pagan sabbats. On the night of All Souls Eve, the veil between worlds stretches to its thinnest, and Archipellus must use his incubus powers to draw sexual energy and reinforce the barrier to keep the realms from chaos. The draining is perilous to humans, so the women he chooses are those who are already near death. With their consent, he will aid their journey to the underworld in a final moment of blissful release.Considering this, he knows without a doubt that he is immune to the plan the Fates have unleashed—a love spell that has consumed each of his sabbat brothers whole.Melissa Jacobs walks in to her terminally ill sister’s hospital room and is shocked to discover a gorgeous, yet frightening incubus preparing to drain her. She stops him and offers to take Bethany’s place, provided that Archipellus uses some of the power drained to try and heal her sister. The result is a tear in the veil, allowing a creature to kidnap Bethany and vanish into another realm. To find Melissa’s lost sister, Archipellus must join with his half-angel brother, a warrior friend, and the fiery human lover who refuses to be left behind. The monsters they will face on their quest are not as dangerous as keeping Melissa near, for the temptation to possess her may prove too great to resist. When he gives in and drains her too far, he must save her at all costs. He will stand at the crossroads between the living and dead to confront the truth about his powers—and the price for using them.
