Not being a huge fantasy reader, I was a bit intimidated by the description as to how fantastical this story would be. Luckily I was NOT greeted with my worst fear - a huge mystical, magical world the author just throws you inside of without explaining how a single thing works. To my even greater joy, I discovered that I didn't have to know a thing about the world or time period or society to understand the tale. I simply just had to read. Even the characters are not totally defined by their magical race. They're more defined by, well, their character.There's a wonderful insight into the main character Felicia, a vampire who's sexy in an unexpected way. Most authors write vampires who rely solely on their looks to make them appeal to other characters and, most importantly, readers. Sure, Felicia has the looks and the charm, but she's attractive in a surprising way. The depth of her character is endless, and her wit is unmatched. Her personality is strong and bold, and she knows exactly what she wants. Not only is her story being explained to us (and, trust me, it's a captivating story, even when most of her past is unknown), Felicia herself comments on the events as they happen, giving us snippets of her direct thoughts - and more often than not they're sexual. Felicia's lustful personality and motivations make her my favorite character and inherently sexy as the author describes.The plot is quite interesting. I won't give it away, but I'll just say you won't expect what the cure to Felicia's vampirism is. What the cure is could seem silly if it were written by any other author, but Zephyr Indigo pens it so smoothly you won't bat an eyelash when you find out what it is - and it's worth finding out.This is a great first story for a series. It doesn't go too in depth of what all adventures will be had, what sets of obstacles will have to be faced, and even what consequences could arise from making a decision. It only gives you a taste of the true main plot - how Felicia can cure her unwanted vampirism - but that's all you need. Read this book and you'll be dying to read the next nine.(Not to mention, the sex scenes are pretty damn hot.)
