I want to respond to the 2 star reviewer of this book. I agree that this book may be a little too steamy to be called YA. However, I would not remove one single star because of it. Also, you said that the characters became “connected” and that is how Ethan “sees” Serena with another man. You really should not belittle a book based on inaccurate information. Ethan sees Serena because he was watching her from the roof of another house nearby. He wanted to watch her sleep to be close to her because he loved her. And Serena doesn't go have sex with someone else because she thought “what am I getting myself into?” She does it because she wants to feel normal. She thinks that being with a vampire is just too unusual for her normal little world. But she later realizes that normal isn't right for her. She loves Ethan and that is what she truly wants. You might not get it, but that's no reason to give this wonderful author a bad review.That being said, I want to say that I truly enjoyed this book. It was fascinating to enter this world of quite unusual vampires and vampiras. I would say that it was a bit Twighlight-ish (which is not a bad thing by the way) with a few Shades of Grey mixed in.I truly hope that there is a sequel in the works for this book. It left a lot of questions in my mind about the future of these characters. Highly recommended!
