Once I finished book one, Vampires of Soldiers Cove, I couldn't wait to get my hands on the next. The first book did not end in a cliffhanger so I was curious to see where the story would go; sad to say more go on a new slope of drama that tends to come across as dry and overplayed. But with One Crow Sorrow I was not disappointed. The dearly beloved vampires are back in a new adventure filled with mystery, betrayal, and plenty of hot, sweaty action!Settling into the slow life as newly weds isn't easy, especially with a blood blond between them that makes Rachel feel like Gavin is suffocating her in attention. When his brother, Ian, returns to town she is given the break she needs to simply gather her thoughts. But when the brothers return from a boys day out, things take a terrible turn for the worse. Gavin isn't himself and leaves as a string of murders from St. Peters to Chapel Island pops up.His bad history has everyone but Rachel pointing their fingers, but even she can only hold on for so long. Can their love survive the accusations, or will this mystery put a quick stop to their married life?I want to start with the cover of the book, it looks amazing! Just like every other book I have read by Jessica MacIntyre, this one is captivating and compelling. I didn't want to put it down until I hit the last page, then I wanted to reread it all over again simply to live inside this magical world Jessica has created. The story line was intense, mixing a dark fantasy with hot romance in a seamless blend that is beyond words. The uglier side to our creatures of the night was further exposed, as well as the uglier side of humanity. The realism put into this book helps give that strong connection to her characters, who are wonderful but each has their own flaws. (I have a total crush on Ian!)The descriptions were magnificent! I felt like I was watching a movie rather than reading a book, and all too soon it ended. This one does have a cliffhanger, but I thought it was beautifully done and once again leads into a whole new set of problems, rather than carry the main plot on like most series do. I can't wait to read more, and highly recommend this book to vampire lovers everywhere!
