I felt the contents of the book teetered between teen and adult.There were moments where the vampire seemed a little insecure and I hate to say it, childish. I know that when your dealing with supernatural creatures they can take any direction the storyteller wants. But for me Vampires are brutal creatures without a soul. Jack seemed to soft to really be a Vampire. He seemed to finally Man-up when it became clear Liz wasn't going to get down to completing the task they started together.I absolutely loved the sexual build up once he took over.The Karken seemed like it could have been more characterized. That part of the story seemed a little elusive, and when it got down to the slaying of the beast I felt it was underplayed and maybe a bit rushed.When the claiming came about at the end, I would have liked to have seen more details of the intensity of what was happening. There was a lot of build up for the bite that eventually came, but there was just something missing... a second sex scene maybe? (Just my humble opinion)About Liz. The portrayal of her as Fae Worrior, Strong and bad-ass, when she was fighting. Tough as nails as she let Jack needle up her flesh. But then when it came to being the woman she needed to be for both her mindful task of slaying the Karken and finally giving in to her own desires for Jack, she seemed like a scared little school girl who didn't know the first thing about sex. I understand the author wanted her to be submissive to Jack when those scenes were written, but she became childlike. It clashed with Fae Worrior in a weird way.Over all, I can feel the passion in the author and hope she sticks with her writing.
