I simply love vampire romance and this blurb took my attention, so I bought and read it the day of sale.

Cecelia Barnes is a researcher focusing on blood disorders. She comes to the attention of both good and bad vampires. Thus starts her journey of a lifetime (or several)!

I have seen Ms. Quinn around the romance world, but this is the first time I've read any of her books. To say that I am impressed is an understatement. She is a bright shining new talent in the erotic romance realm.

Julian is a complex character with many layers. He starts out the story with some clearly defined goals that aren't in Cecelia's best interests. Very soon, he realizes her worth both as a doctor and a potential romantic partner.

Cecelia is a heroine worthy of the title. She is resourceful and keeps her head througout. It was refreshing to see how Ms. Quinn invested in Cecelia's character.

The secondary cast of characters were quite well portrayed and added a great deal to the plot rather than just being scene dressing. The plot and romantic development were top notch and I was happy to be able to read this book front to back in one sitting. I often get bored with vampire stories that seem to be too similar, but this one was unique.

December Quinn, I'll be eagerly awaiting your next book!
