Ok, first I should say, this is not the kind of novel I would normally find myself reading.  I am usually a fan of the dark horror novel, but once I found myself lost in the world of Ani and Sebastian I could not let go until the last words.  Ariel did an amazing job of creating a world that is foreign to me, but that through her telling I was able to identify with.  The close community of her Irish Boston felt like a place I have not only visited, but have now lived in.  Some of the other reviewers had a problem with the infidelity in the book, but I think Ariel handled in a way that was real, and while sad, felt true.  This is a part of life and relationships.  I never felt like the characters were purposely trying to be "bad", but were instead being Human.  And that, in the end, is what makes this a great story transcending it's genre.  It felt very real, true and human to me.  I can't wait for the second book!  Bring it on!  You've taken a man who loves his horror novels and turned him in to a romance reading fool!
