Review: Read this if you're tired of the stereotypical vampire novel!

There really aren't that many authors that give us stories that manage to feel genuinely new, especially in the popular paranormal genre. Somehow Aiden James accomplishes exactly that with the Vampire's Last Lover. I'm no newcomer to the paranormal or fantasy genre, and this is coming from someone who has read a little bit of everything in this over-saturated category. The author creates characters who have no resemblance to ones from other popular series, which is a huge pet peeve of mine with vampire stories. Everything about the story is unique. My only wish was for just a little bit more 'steam', as I really enjoy the carnal nature of a vampire. This in no way hampered my enjoyment of the story though, and it was nice to see an author not have to rely on sex to make the story enticing. If you have been searching for a series that breaks the mold and dares to be different, this is the one. I highly recommend it!
