Ratings and reviews

This is my first read for D.B. Reynolds and I really enjoyed it. The writing was great, the story grabbed my attention from the first page and the characters were fascinating. I loved the power struggle in the Midwest territories between the vampire candidates. Having read the series out of order, I find that I wasn’t lost in the storyline. I would have liked to have more background on other characters so I will definitely be checking out the other books in the series. I also loved Aden’s seduction of Sidonie, although it didn’t take much because she wanted him too. It was a sensually erotic journey that had my breath hitching every time the two were in close proximity to each other. I love vampire books and this was a wonderful twist on the myth. A refreshing story laced in brutality and eroticism. If you love vampires, you’ll love this book. ***I received an eBook copy from the publisher via Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.

Bokk was really good. My only issue is that half of it were sex scenes. Let the story shine. Overall good read.

Great read yet again
