Second book that I have read by this author and finally thankfully we get the story that the first book A Vampires Promise well promised! I really enjoyed that book but it lacked basic paranormal content and just teased the reader a little too much. In this the follow up the author lets her imagination loose and takes the reader along for the ride!It's always been obvious to the reader that Gabriel is a vampire but it took Rowan quite a while to catch on! Finally when she does it opens up a whole new can of worms as she starts to realise that maybe just maybe Gabriel and her are well and truly connected and it's soul deep! Not wishing to give too much away it's fair to say that Rowan has made an enemy who wants her dead but that's the least of her worries. It's clear that her memories have been tampered with and if she is to find ever lasting happiness with Gabriel she needs to get them back but why is he so reluctant to help?  Gabriel has secrets but surely their love will prevail? Well maybe not as events began so long ago are about to affect the here and now and perhaps Rowans trust should not be given so easily? It's a precarious line that we tread when we decide between good and evil, one slip and all will be lost!So pleased that we finally get answers as I found the first book so frustrating and maybe the two could have been combined which might have made for a more rounded book? Yes it would have been a longer story but I did feel somewhat that a paranormal romance should be just that paranormal! Luckily in this instalment we get lots of interesting details and characters and there's even action ! Our heroine is as much a live wire as ever and her inner bitch is hilarious but unfortunately I just don't really find her that charismatic although she is brave and loyal and prepared to sacrifice for the man she loves.  There are interesting supporting characters and my favourite would have to be the best friend  Laycee who just lights up every scene that she's in but also brought real emotion into the story as it finished and trust me not many authors can make me feel sad. I'm also hoping that the character Ryiel will get his story told as I do love a brooding male! Lots of sex and I do mean lots!  There's so much humour in this authors work too and it helps set it apart from the more mundane paranormals available. I will read more by Ms Smith and I am so pleased that this book captured my eye.
