Ok, first off, Vampire, Vampire is a compilation of 2 short stories. Thorn & Grace is the first story and it is a work of brilliance. At it's core, it's a fairy tale of the best kind. The Princess (Queen) is dealt a pretty crappy hand...the bad guy is, well horrible would actually be too kind a word to describe him, completely unredeemable...despicable...needing to die a slow painful death - those words would fit the bad guy better...I don't want to tell you his name bc I don't want to give anything at all away. Anna is so strong, the strongest of all - once things are finally sorted, she quickly realizes she not only has to save her own skin, she has to save her Prince's (King) too...it's girl power to the nth degree. Minus the lovin' you want your little girl to read this story...the Princess is brave beyond compare, strong beyond belief and loyal beyond measure. And her Prince, he never gives up...ever. They are equals on every level, it's refreshing and beautiful in every single way. Now, it should be noted, HKW writes the lovin' like nobody's business, i swear, my Kindle was smoking! So much girl power, I'll totally encourage my 10 year old daughter to read this when she's older.Relentless is the second novella. It's shorter than the first and that's probably a good thing. I don't think my blood pressure could've taken much more! Intense and well, relentless - the pace of this story does not let up. It's all written from the POV of the would be Queen - you feel the angst and struggle she feels as she first tries to deny her destiny, with every ounce of her being...and later you are hit with a ton of bricks when the reality of her destiny finally settles in - it's a huge choice she has to make and you're literally left wondering, until the last possible moment, which way her decision will go - I'm not saying anything more for fear of spoilers but don't take anything for granted...it's not your typical vampire story. Great work HKW, great work...keep 'em coming!Go click on the button, buy this book and enjoy the goodness, the delicious goodness of the two very different world's the author weaves.
