I received this book from the author in return for an honest review from the Making Connections group."When a murder shakes the small town of Peninsula, all eyes are on Olivia Townsend. She may look eighteen, but the townspeople can sense there's something darker hiding behind her pretty eyes. Olivia knows the smart thing to do is to get out of town. Suspicious neighbors can only mean trouble for a vampire. But leaving becomes much more difficult when William, a mysterious man from her past, arrives. Finding out what brought him back is a temptation Olivia just can't resist. William's kindness and interest in Olivia only makes leaving harder. As she starts to fall for him, she's forced to decide if sticking around is really worth the risk of being discovered. Of course, her mystery man has a secret of his own-and he's not talking."So I thought Olivia was a good strong character that really struggled with what she was. She fell for William who actually ended up being a guardian who protects the Peninsula from vampires and she was so scared to tell him what she was. Then there was Jesse who to me seemed like the hot bad boy that you want to root for but you know is going to end badly regardless. He really kept things interesting... I really felt bad for his sister Jane who was so blindly in love with someone who didn't want to be with her. It was really sad.The ending wasn't what I was expecting. I really thought William would be livid to see what he had become but he was ok with it because he had Olivia. I love happy endings but I'm so used to reading books where theres huge conflict before the happy ending. This was a nice change.
