Ava is more than human but not fully vampire. She resisted the blood thirst for her whole life, not wanting to give into the vampire in her nature. When she saves a young man from a vampire attack, he becomes enthralled by her. I feared this was degenerating into a predictable human falling for vampire storyline with sex, but I was pleasantly surprised. The characters have depth and personality, and Ava genuinely wants to free the young man bound to her before he comes to harm so he can return to his fiance and life. Not everything is black or white; people helping her have their own agendas and cannot necessarily be fully trusted. She has to learn more about herself and navigate through conflicting interests. This storyline was far more satisfying than I had initially anticipated.  A good read and well edited, which is another plus. Look forward to more books by this author.
