Review: Could not put it down (the ecstacy), finished too quickly (the agony)!

Aline Hunter's much awaited *Vampire Mine* , Book 3 of the Alpha and Omega series, lived up to its predecessors with non-stop action and scorching hot paranormal romance. It is necessary to read Books 1 and 2 first in order to fully appreciate the stories. Hunter advances multiple plots with the time overlapping among the books of the series.*Vampire Mine* begins 8 weeks after the end of *Enemy Mine* (Book 2). Sadie, a white mage vampire and a warrior/protector type, is tracking a powerful enemy, vampire Aldon Frost. Just as she catches up with him, the last of her energy resources dissipate as she hasn't fed in weeks. With her life force fading fast, she becomes Aldon's helpless captive. When Trey learns that Sadie is missing, he and pack Beta, Nathan, go to Sadie's rescue. Once reunited with Sadie, Trey learns the extent of her predicament and can no longer fight the attraction between them.When Trey learns of another powerful enemy planning genocide of his kind, he must rally pack defenses at a time that he risks losing all support due to mating a vampire. Threatened from without and from within, can Trey and Sadie protect the pack and survive the struggles to come?Subplots include the continuing stories of human-turned-vampire, Leigh, and pack beta, Nathan; Ava and shifter-omega Diskant Black; and begins the story of the powerful panther shifter Kinsley MacGregor's pursuit of his human mate-to-be (to be continued in Book 4--I hope).Be warned that the language and the sex in this series are explicit. The action and suspense are non-stop, and the plot and characters will keep you coming back for more. If you like action-and-adventure with explicit paranormal romance, I highly recommend *Vampire Mine* and the entire Alpha and Omega series.
