Amazing! I absolutely LOVED this book! I'd describe it as a combination of Stephanie Meyer's Twighlight series (but more adult and not sparkly) and Jeanine Frost's Night Huntress series mixed up with Christine Wenrick's original voice. It pulls you into the pages, and holds on tight until the very end. There's a bit of everything in this book, excitement, adventure, love, hate, mystery and much more that any romance and paranormal reader will love!Olivia is all about her music and her best friend, the only two things in her life that are still around for her and she is content with them both. Very quickly that changes for her when one day while her and her best friend are on a train to the city, it's viciously attacked by vampires whom cause it to crash and then feed on all left living. Olivia is in shock, vampires exist! Scared out of her mind at the surrounding vamps, she is soon saved by another vampire that just pops out of the blue and sweeps her away. A bit confused, injured and sad, she gets to know the man behind the vampire that has rescued her and what a man he is!Caleb is a very strong, determined and handsome vampire that is on the side of good as far as vampires are concerned. He's a fairly new vampire that is still learning all that there's to know about how not to be a monster like he considers himself to be deep down. He does not want to be like those that attacked the train, he does not want to harm or take human life, and he really is gentle and kind when not in warrior mode. After saving Olivia, he finds he is drawn to her like no other. He wants to explore these feelings fully, but is afraid to do so in fear that he may harm her and then lose her forever.All in all, a great story, vividly written, excellent characters and an action packed story that allows the reader to truly escape everyday life while reading :)
