The fourth in the series, Janine is a newer hunter, and survived an incredibly troubled past.  A former addict and prostitute, she also has the ability to hear people’s thoughts.  This gives her an incredible leg up on the competition, but has been used to manipulate her in the past.  She’s strong and determined, with an edge that always expects that others are seeking to use or manipulate her, and she fights desperately to command both respect and her own destiny.Dmitru is a vampire that Janine once was kind to, and he, like all the others sought to manipulate her for her skills and talent.  Now she is determined that he will die, and all thoughts of cooperating with him in light of the new information are void.This was an interesting pairing: Janine is overly defensive and quick to take offense.  Dmitru is no angel, yet he believes that only Janine can save the child that will be born to Solomon.  Since she won’t go peacefully and accept reasoned arguments, he takes her against her will.From the moment they connect the sparks are flying as they traipse across several countries dodging enemies and new dangers.  Slowly Janine realizes that most of her unsettled feelings around Dmitru is sexual tension, she wants him and not just dead.  Jumping from one adrenaline fueled moment to the next, the story is fast paced and mesmerizing.  The only moments of relaxation from the pacing are the sensual and steamy moments between the two, and that brings a tension of a whole other sort.These 4 books in the series are wonderfully crafted and bring interesting and unique characters to light, giving them issues that feel familiar and possible, even though the story itself is pure fantastical imagining.  While you can read any of the books without noticeable loss to story integrity, I would suggest reading them in order for maximum understanding.I received an eBook copy from the publisher via NetGalley for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
