Review: Typical Vampire Romance . . .
Rating: 4 out of 5

Aiden's betrayal is a good vampire romance.  Elle's best friend talks her into going clubbing one night and that changed her life forever. She meets Aiden and there is an immediate strong attraction between the two of them.  Although she had no plans of having a one night stand, she changes her mind after one look at Aiden.  Unknown to Elle, Aiden is a vampire and she finds out after he has no choice but to kill rogue vampires in her presence.  Elle's parents were killed by vampires and she has to deal with her attraction to Aiden and realize the difference between rogues and vampires.  There were a couple of discrepancies in the scenes but it did not take away from the story.  For instance, in one scene they were about to have sex against the wall, but in the next sentence Aiden was placing his knee on the bed to loom over Elle.  So now you have to flip the scene in your mind from wall to bed, no indication that they had even made it to the bed.  On another note, Elle's best friend Anya is a slut and I don't care for her character at all.  First, I thought Anya and Nicholas (Aiden's cousin) had something going on when they met at the club, but then they ended up separated and screwing other people like bunnies.  Second, I thought Anya and Lucian (Aiden's son) had something going on because they had lots of sex and he turned her into a vampire.  But that was just another screw also.  Toward the end of the story, the author left something hanging between Anya and Nicholas after all.  WTF? I think it would have been better just killing off Anya's character.  I don't care for possible mates to meet, don't realize it and continue to have sex with other people.  Although this was the first installment to the series, there was already another couple mated (Jodi and Ethan).  I don't' care for this either, because after about two to three books in the series, the author will most likely go back and tell Jodi and Ethan's story.  Why not just start with them first?  All in all, I did enjoy Aiden's story and will continue to read the series.
