I picked up this book free on Amazon and then devoured it within a matter of days. What a steal. Now I feel guilty because this steamy paranormal romance is worth considerably more, considering how much I enjoyed it. For one thing, I loved the historical touches: the manuscript, and the glimpses into Michel and Julien's past. The writing is top notch, the story flows well, and it has a real sense of immediacy to it, putting you right there with the characters. The BDSM theme is actually fairly light here--although the characters have a lot of discussion of dominance and submission. I imagine it will get more intense as the series progresses. The relationship between vampire and Adept is a really intriguing premise and it will be interesting to see it unfold. And by "unfold" I mean I'm looking forward to reading more smoking hot scenes with these characters. Overall, this is a solid paranormal romance that's catchy and sexy, fun at times, dark at others, with interesting characters that will make you want more. Now I'm going to check out the sequel.
