Review: A Recommended Read
Rating: 5 out of 5

One of the things I love most about this series is that Carmen DeSousa takes all the stereotypes and tosses them in the trash. This is paranormal romantic suspense, absent the weak-kneed female falling at the dominant vampire's feet. Another thing I love is that she allows her characters to poke fun at those stereotypes with a subtle humor that had me giggling in the mist of the suspense.While Derrick and Kristina, the stars ofCreatus (Creatus Series), still play a big role here, other characters step out and take the lead. I loved learning more about Victoria. She's a fascinating character with a lot of depth. And I was pleasantly surprised by Reece's larger role. We're given enough closure to feel satisfied at the end, but we're also left with tantalizing pieces that have me waiting anxiously for book #3.If you have not readCreatus (Creatus Series), the first book in this series, you could still read this one. DeSousa did a great job weaving past information into this story, giving new readers background while not boring readers who'd read the first book. Still, I think the series is more enjoyable if read in order so that you have a full understanding of the characters' journeys. Plus, they're just really great books!
