3.5 stars.  It's an enjoyable enough read to capture my attention.  The villain was not obvious specifically but figured it had to be from within Sarah's circle of students given the "theme" of the crimes.The style of writing was not bad, the plot was simple enough, no elaborate twists to the story.  The most interesting part of the book was probably Sarah's history and her connection to her blood dreams (although this is really more a character thing and is unrelated to the main plot of the book).The relationship between the characters had some tension in the beginning while Sarah was resistant due to how she thought of herself (she considered herself a "monster" because of her blood dreams), the chemistry was there but I think the relationship capitulated too quickly.  The turn around point was the revelation of Sarah's past by Hadrian.  From this point, there was no gradual change, it was like flicking on a light switch in the relationship between Sarah and Hadrian and also an instant change in Sarah herself.All in all, not a bad book, enjoyable enough to spend some leisurely hours on.
