Bohemian picks up a few months after A Vampire's Dominion. I honestly can't say enough about this series and these characters.I would say this quote sums it up quite perfectly..."We're a grand collection of misfits and we're all very happy here."Ingrid, a police detective breaks into a suspects home office during a formal gathering, looking for evidence that could lead her to obtaining a warrant so to properly charge the suspect.I love her character. I think her motto should be "I'll break the law to maintaine the law."She's just so passionate about her work and over wrought with gilt that most of the time she fails to see reason and finds herself in hot water.Not exactly a good thing when your investigation is tied, once again, to the underworld.Enter...OrpheousI can never tire of Orpheus. He was, after all, the one who started this series. That man vampire has certainly been through hell and back and I'm so glad to see him whole again. His broody, sexy, sarcastic ways..And now he's somewhat tied to Ingrid with the mystery of the missing girl. Orpheus loves a challenge and Ingrid presents one. He knows her heart lies elsewhere but it's just too damn fun for Orpheus to play his games and ooze his sexy charm on her.JadeonWow...Where to start with Jadeon. I remember a time where I didn't love him. o_OWhat was I thinking!He has become one of my favorite characters. Now that he is Dominion. He has taken on the huge responsibility of being the leader of the vampire race.How does that change his character? You'll have to read to find out, but I can tell you, he shocked me more than a few times..His relasionship with Orpheous... Complicated.His relasionship with Ingrid... Complicated.Thats really all I can say without giving out spoilers, and he too is tied to Ingrid and Orpheous with the investigation.AnaisI loved her character too. Actually, I hated her, then I loved her then I really hated her and then I loved her again.This is what I love about this author. She can make you love, hate then love again in a matter of pages..Speaking of love..Alex and SebastionSigh...while there were only a couple short scenes in this book of them. I still loved it and loved them. I'd love to see where this is going...*hint hint*I'm saving the best for last..ParadomHe has become my absolutely, positively favorite character of this series. I have no idea if the author intended him to become so beloved, but he has.Why you ask? Well for starters, he hangs off chandeliers and eats cat food! How can I not love him? And he has many other talents as well, but I won't tell you what they are.I love the interaction between Paradom, Alex and Sebastion. I could read an entire book of them just hanging off chandeliers and eating cat food.Overall, book four was amazing. The story, the execution. All the pieces fell together perfectly.The author withheld just enough information to keep you guessing while she feed you answers throughout at just the right moments.There wasn't anything unnecessarily thrown in there. The story flowed perfectly and was evenly paced.I can't tell you how much I love this series. This isn't just a book about blood sucking vampires. It's so much more than that. Read it. You won't be disappointed.ARC kindly provided for my honest reviewAnd that was my honest review. Can't wait for the next book!
