Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awsome
Review: [Let me make this clear - I do not generally enjoy romance novels. So take that into consideration when you read this review.] The cover should have told me this was a "chick flick" novel. A gorgeous stud reaching out to a woman silhouetted against a moon . . . what else could it be? But all I saw was that it was about vampires, so I quickly bought it thinking I'd found another great horror novel with a hot vampire on the prowl. Well . . . I almost found it. But not quite.

Edward Ramsey is, or more appropriately was, a vampire hunter. He was turned into a vampire by one of the undead he had previously been hunting. I won't go into all the specifics, as it's kind of detailed (read the book to find out more). Needless to say, Edward is not happy about the transformation, and the fact that he's now hunting and feeding upon the humans he used to protect. Ultimately, he falls for one of those victims, which only makes life (or death) even harder for him. Soon Edward, his lover, the vampire who turned Edward, and a few others join forces to fight one of the oldest and most evil vampires known to man.

The book is well-written. It is a love story, with all the emotions that go along with it, and was probably geared more toward an audience that includes my sisters instead of me. The characters are written from an emotional standpoint. Women with long, flowing hair, great bodies, and just enough weakness to submit to their men. Men who are strong, handsome, and filled with hot passion and love for their women. Passion that is mysterious but overwhelming. If you're looking for a story of love that has a dark edge to it, and seems impossible but still manages to survive despite impossible odds, then this is a story for you. But if you're looking for a novel about vampires, with perhaps a hint of love and/or lust, then you'd better go somewhere else.
