My Rating ~ 4 bites and a nibble
It’s been a decade since
the outbreak of V2000 and everything went horribly wrong. Vampires are no
longer hiding in the shadows, but with the virus comes a high price: most
humans are turned into a mutated Vampire offshoot called vamps. True, pureblood
humans are a fast dwindling commodity and even though they have a synthetic
blood that they can survive on, Vampires crave warm sweet blood straight from
the tap.
Danika Chekov is the
only female Vampire Lord in America. She’s young, too. So of course, the older
male Vampire Lords try to make her feel inferior. But Danika is made of sterner
stuff. She may be going through a rough patch and someone may or may not be
trying to kill her, but she will not bow down to anyone. So she purchases
Mason, a human swept up by a slaver crew. Their attraction to each other is undeniable.
But Mason isn’t what he seems and Danika’s world is about to get very
complicated.
Bad timing on my part,
but I just finished a Vampires-Take-Over-The-World book and it sucked. So, I went
into this one with great reluctance and was immediately sucked in. Hehe I said
sucked in. Like blood…oh, nevermind. Anyway, the characters are awesome, the
world is complicated, and the mystery is twisty. My only complaint is the
terminology for the Vampires, vampyr and vamps confused the fuck out of me for
far too long. It wasn’t explained very well or I just didn’t get it. I’m not
sure which. Anyway, Mason is definitely not human. I’m not giving anything away
with this observation. You’ll see it in the opening chapter. But what he is…is
something cool. I love this story and can’t wait to read more in this series.
