A novel for teens based on the popular fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm
Way after midnight in New York City, a girl runs down the streets, looking for someplace to hide ... is there anywhere she can go to escape? Is there anyone who can help her... now?
This dark but fulfilling sequel to The Shadow of the Bear is based on a familiar fairy tale from the Brothers Grimm. Circumstances have placed Blanche Brier entirely on her own this summer in New York City while Bear is wandering through Europe and her family is on vacation. Blanche is fast becoming the focus of a terrifying play of evil forces -- or so she feels. Even the refuge she takes among some lively Franciscan friars does not protect her from dangerous attacks. She must rely on herself to sort out the ominous and apparently disconnected events that continue to build until it seems that all hope is gone. Yet during this time, the desires of her heart are being clarified - and so are Bear's. A black night. Honest faith. Tested love.

GREAT!! - A five star review on Amazon.com
In 'Black as Night', Blanche is alone in New York city. A mysterious enemy is stalking Blanche and framing her for a crime she didn't commit. Regina Doman's sequel to 'Shadow of the Bear' is just as exciting and unique as the first book was. Two thumbs up!!! -- February 15, 2006

Hey! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your books! I own 'Shadow' and 'Black as Night' and am awaiting to get my copy of 'Waking Rose.' I love the Catholic themes in the stories...and the romance and humor that also went into them. I also recently loaned my copies out to a close gal friend of mine who isn't Catholic (she's Christian though!) and she adored the books and ordered all three online! I'm very excited to get my hands on 'Waking Rose' and am blessed to be one of your fans! Megan, age 17, Roseville, MN
Questions on the book: Where can I get the lyrics for "Take My Breath Away?" (the song Brother Leon sings) - Nicole, 3/25/06 See the author's answer.
UPDATE! A reader informed me that the song "You Take My Breath Away" sung by Brother Leon, was actually written and recorded by British recording artist Claire Hamill. If you'd like to hear the song, or more songs by Claire Hamill, please visit: http://www.clairehamill.co.uk/
