Review: Interesting characters, but nothing really happens

When I finally got around to reading this on my Kindle, I did not see that it was the second in a series, so I really thought it was badly written.  Once I saw that there was a back-story available on what Zillael is and that the vampire connection had already been revealed in the first book, I realized this book was probably not as as incohesively written as I thought.Zillael is a senior in high school who is hated for her beauty.  Derek goes to school with her and becomes her friend this year when they both kill vampires together outside a school dance.  Vayle is a vampire that escaped that night after Zillael gave him "lifeblood".  He is inexplicably connected to her now both emotionally and physically even though he still is attracted to his previous college girlfriend who can't deal with him being a vampire.  Zillael's touch has enabled him to withstand sunlight and a nice little love triangle between Zillael, Derek and Vayle is established.  The sexual level of this book is not for young YA's.This book is the second in a series and is not a stand-alone book.  You really need to have read book one (which I didn't) to really enjoy this book.  Even so, this book never reveals any information about what Zilleal is; we know as much in the end as we did at the beginning of the story and the cliff-hanger ending introduces two new characters (at least I thought they were), then "The End". Really, just a typical second installment where nothing really happens.Would I/Did I buy it? Free downloadWould I read it again? NoWould I recommend it to friends? Yes, but only if they start on book 1 (which is not free)
