Review: Could Have Been Combined With Book 1 To Be a 5 Star Novel
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 07 3, 2014
This review was hard, not because I did not like the book because I did but because I really thought about giving it 3 Stars for having to go through 270ish pages of book 1 of this series A Vampire's Promise to get to this book which is the real story I was looking for in book 1.This novel incorporates all the things we usually enjoy about urban fantasy/paranormal romance.  It has a couple who are in love with each other to the point of self sacrifice.  You have the "big evil thing" hovering around in the background (in this case its kinda 2 things but you don't know it).  You have the heroine's best friend that actually is fleshed out pretty well (something many authors fail at doing) and the stoic friend of the hero and some other secondary characters that actually add to the story.I really can't go into much detail about the plot beyond the synopsis because most of it would be a spoiler which I don't do and hate it when reviewers do it.Bottom Line:  This is a great novel, I wish she had taken book 1 & 2 and combined them into 1 well done 5 Star novel but she did not, I give it 4 Stars for the total story and not really what was limited to either book.  I enjoyed it but felt a lot of pages were wasted on sex that meant nothing and added nothing plus when you add in book 1 you have a needlessly verbose telling of this story.  It DOES however have a really good ending I thought.
