Even among the most powerful, there is a struggle to survive. Thus is the case for the Enclave, because there are enemies lurking. When Guerin learns that a new threat, one thought impossible, has emerged, he seeks it out on his own.Eve has always known danger and assumes the man asking about her is no friend, but she and Guerin share an immediate connection. Can she trust him? Soon, they are being tracked and both most face their pasts. As the danger intensifies, so do their feelings.To start, this book is steamy; it's an adult book, bordering on erotica (if not crossing over). There's no denying the connection between Eve and Guerin since the pages sizzle every time they are together. Plus, the fast-paced plot will leave you just as breathless.As it turns out, it was a bit too fast for me; I wanted more background on the Enclave and more insight into some of the characters. I kept getting the nagging suspicion I was missing something. Then, I discovered there are other books in the series. If I had understood better what everyone was fighting for, I would have been even more captivated than I was.In addition to interesting characters and strong connections between them, I found the weakness of these vampires--particularly from their own desires--fascinating. Not only did they face the dangers of those more powerful or feel beholden to their need to feed, their connection to their mates (or potential ones) was paramount to their existence.For those who enjoy some heat along with a mesmerizing story, pick up a copy of Undying Desire today.Note: I received a complimentary copy for review purposes.
