Donna McCormick is your average college student....except for the fact that her family has a bunch of money, her brother died a few years ago in an accident she blames herself for, her dreams are being haunted by a nightmare, and her toes. Yes, toes. Her toes are proof that a Goddess watches over her. Donna's grandmother was always imparting words of advice on her. Such as:"Someday you'll meet two men. One will sweep you off your feetand the other will knock you down. Beware - they are from adark place where mortals dare not tread."Boy was grandma right. Donna's got her future cut out for her. Luckily she's got the help of her best friend Mo, the smart-mouth friend who causes more trouble then help. She also has her Life Partner, the other half of the dark duo grandma warned her of. Now Donna is subjected to a world with minions, demons and vampires.Welcome to the Underworld Donna. A world that, until now, you didn't know existed. Not only that but you've been born into this world again and again. Each time Donna falls in love with Hunter and his evil brother, who is obsessed with Donna, kills her. Sounds like the making of a great family reunion!Now Donna is battling for her life, and any normalcy that she used to have. This is the first book in the series, and leaves you with a big enough cliff-hanger at the end that you want to pick book two up right away. It took me a little bit to get into the book, but once I did I didn't want to put it down. I love the characters of Mo, Samee and Dante. Donna and Hunter grow on you, there characters are more complex. I look forward to reading the rest of the series.
