Sophis’s life is being a guard for the Venia bloodline, and she can’t imagine being anything else. After a recent run in with a vampire hunter that nearly resulted in her death, Vivek, another guard and the one who trained her is trying harder than ever to have her removed from her position. Sophis doesn’t understand what has happened to Vivek over the last decade, they were friends and she felt they could be something more; now all she feels is his animosity. The two are sent on a mission together to scout for vampire hunters the night before the Creator Day masquerade ball. The seven vampire families will come together for two nights, and it is up to Vivek and Sophis to help with protecting the families. It is just unclear whether or not they can put personal feelings aside and work together.As far as vampires are concerned neither Vivek nor Sophis are all that old. Having positions in the guard seems to be quite an accomplishment for both of them. They are similar in many ways, but the main thing is they are both very driven. There is also a lot of confusion on both sides where feelings for the other are concerned. Sophis is beautiful and brave, and Vivek is a dangerous and sexy alpha male. I was immediately taken with both characters.Masquerade is one of my favorites of the series so far. I liked seeing some familiar characters as well as new ones. As usual Heaton takes you by the hand and pulls you into the world she created. Her world is a place of danger and excitement where passions and emotions run high. I for one cannot get enough! Vampire lovers sit up and take notice; you do not want to miss out on Felicity Heaton or her Vampires Realm!**Reviewed by Teresa D. for VampireRomanceBooks.com**
