What an incredible read.100% plot driven, but then.. Er, 100% character driven.  If you know what I mean? Everyone has a story, the secondary characters are so beautifully fleshed out and darkly endearing.. And who is going to betray Val next? Or first? IsLucas a lying, controlling meglamaniac who can't be trusted or a vampire on his way to redemption.  This is a pretty dark character..A dude so utterly evil and twisted that as he destroys an entire race of people, he kept his usually blond hair black, coated in their blood, of course.. And the dialogue.. Wo couldn't be affected as Lucas taunts his enemies before ruthlessly and efficiently kslaughtering em. And then, our poor Val who can't work out if she can save him and love him, or just toss him to the wayside to be devoured by all the peoples he's really pissed off over the years.  And she doesn't even have a chance to think about that when she has vampires, the Fay king and werewolves breathing down her neck. Oh my!Valerie is very fallible. She makes mistakes, and as a woman it is very easy to relate to her & see how her heart and dreams cloud over the facts and reality.. Especially when dealing with the men in her life.And to the author:I know you are no doubt being pestered from all quarters Mrs Hanson, but leaving me hanging to Summer 2012  is somewhat akin to ripping out my heart and leaving it on an island surrounded by rotting dead bodies and a few slivery eyeballs.. uck, well, maybe not quite akin.
