Book Review- Beloved Enemy by Lacy YagerEver since Genevieve was taken off the MIT campus by Maggie and Lily and brought to the compound, she has kept to herself planning some kind of escape.  She refuses to stay with these crazy people.  Josh seems comfortable here so she is on her own.She tries sneaking out the garage but runs into a group in a standoff that includes vampires.  She comes face to face with Chad, a vampire who was sent to fight with them. Genevieve screams in fear and strengthens her determination to escape. Her next attempt leads her back to the garage and into the back of one of the SUVs.  When part of the group leaves in search of the CAT, the hybrid vampires, Genevieve is hidden away.  She makes it out of the compound but realizes she is leaving Boston too.  She has to wait and bide her time until they stop and she can sneak away.However, she is found and paired with Chad.  She is then forced to accompany the group in their search.  Chad is not thrilled about being stuck with the human.  In fact he lets his anger get the best of him as he walks away from the group.  Genevieve lets her fear get the best of her and it causes the mission to get extremely dangerous very quickly.  The group barely makes it out alive.Chad protects Genevieve and feels guilty for letting everyone down.  In order to make up for his mistake, he becomes the one to donate blood to help Genevieve when she decides to stay and help.  Her job is to find something that will help destroy the CAT when no weapon they possess will.Chad partners up with her and continues to protect her even though he tries to deny his feelings.  He will never be good for her.  He isn’t whole.Genevieve is driven to find the one thing that will stop the CATs and her own mission which is the cure for cancer.  She can’t afford to be distracted.  Too many are counting on her.I have read a number of books from this series and I really like it.  In fact I request them when I find them up for review.  I have invested in the characters and enjoy the storyline.  The author proves in her books that people can change and enemies can become friends.  The fact that the good guys are becoming more of a group of humans, vampires, warlocks, and chasers banding and fighting together is proof.The book is action packed containing betrayal and even intrigue.  Fight scenes are peppered throughout the story and balanced with Genevieve’s research.  I give it a 4 out of 5 and impatiently wait for the next one to come out.
