Review:
I really enjoyed this book, this is the first book I have read by Rhyannon Byrd and I have to say it will not be my last. I am kind of regretting that I read this book before the rest of the series, because there were parts where I felt like I was missing something or that something was better explained in an earlier book; however, that being said this book can still be read as a standalone but you can tell it is part of a series. Raine played her part well; I felt her frustration and her need for vengeance. Sometimes in books when a character has been tortured you know that they were because the book tells you they were but in Raine and Seth’s instances you know and feel their torture weighing on their very souls. Raine is angry and self destructive her need for vengeance is tearing her apart piece by piece and the only one that has a chance of bring her out of that is Seth. Seth has spent most of his life where Raine is right now; he has spent his entire adult life as a vampire killer tormented from his family’s deaths when he was 15 and his own unbearable torture. When his organization betrayed his trust he was finally able to come up for air and realize that his vengeance was killing his soul and not all vampires should have to pay for the horrors of a few. Seth knows where Raine is coming from and tries to save her from herself. It’s a tough job but he knows she is worth it, he wants her with every fiber within his being. Who would have thought the former vampire killer would fall for the vampire. I really liked Seth and Raine together and damn but Seth is smexy and a protector at heart! Raine is a stubborn beauty but if she lets herself she can learn that sometimes there is something more important than vengeance. This book is heavy on the romance, so you the romance lover will love this book! So now all I have to do is start at the beginning of this series to see what I missed!
