The conclusion of the Vampires of
Texas trilogy is told from the perspectives of vampire Ethan Templeton and
Texas Ranger Stephanie ‘Steve’ Darling. Ethan and Steve have been lovers off
and on for 15 years. When the war between Celeste and Don Rafael heats up Steve
starts putting pieces together and realizes many of the deaths of young women
across Texas
have been caused by a vampire. Is her lover the serial killer? Or are there
more vampires out there? She has a duty to uphold the law, but if it’s her lover
will she be able to bring him in? There’s only one way to find out the truth.
She has to confront Ethan. Will she survive?
I loved this conclusion to the
series. This book was almost entirely in the present day. Only the beginning
back tracked a bit into the early 1900s. Told mostly from Ethan’s and Steve’s
perspective we get a different view of events as they happened in the other
books.
Many people complained it was
confusing or irritating because the story had already been told, but I like
seeing a story from another character’s (or characters’) pov. I was able to get
a greater grasp on what was happening, so it was a fuller and richer experience
for me. I’m sad the story (the trilogy) has ended.
