no. 7 kiss of crimson

I just finished Kiss of Crimson by Lara Adrian.  It is book 2 in the Midnight Breed series.  I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars.  I thought the beginning of the book was a little slow getting into the story line.  When it picked up the characters came to life and it got much more interesting.  Dante and Tess are great characters with a great romance story line.  I would have liked the ending would have been a bit longer about Dante and Tess'  new life together. It seemed a bit rushed. The next book looks like it will be about his warrior brother Tegan and Elise. Will have to check out the 3rd. If you love reading about vampire/action/love story, you will enjoy Kiss of Crimson.

After a brutal attack that leaves him close to death, Dante, a Breed warrior, must bite Tess, a vetrinarian, in order to stay alive. Only afterwards, does he realize that she is a Breedmate and he has performed half of a bonding ritual that will tie them together for eternity. As Dante and Tess struggle to come to terms with the electric connection that pulls and ties them together, the Breed Warriors must battle a new threat - a drug, called Crimson, that turns vampires rouge. from amazon.com

no.4 zen and the art of vampires


I picked this one up while looking at the books at my local Target store. It looked pretty interesting. I took it with me on a recent vacation with my husband. The beginning was pretty slow starting. When the story finally picked up, it got good. It was great to hold my attention wanting to know who killed who and what will happen between Alec and Pia.
I will definitely pick up the next one in the series by Kate MacAlister.
oh... and p.s.... i thought it was funny that the girl on the cover, that I am assuming being Pia, but how she's described in the book by being chubby and over weight, doesn't seem to resemble her... kinda amusing.
"Pia decides to charge her love life on a singles tour of Iceland. She hits the jackpot with gorgeous Alec. The morning after, however, reveals a missing Alec and a dead body. Alec’s friend Kristoff helps her stay ahead of the police until she can solve this mystery. He seems to want nothing to do with her, yet they find themselves irresistibly drawn together. MacAlister continues her Dark Ones series (The Last of the Red Hot Vampires, 2007)." from amazon.com

no.1 twilight

Of course the first book I am going to review is Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. I too have joined in the phenomenon. I bought the first book in the series in 2006. I have always enjoyed reading and watching vampire based stories, so I knew this was going to be a enjoyable read. I finally read it in August 2008. I am sorry that I waited so long to read it!
The first in the series book kept your attention the whole way through it with action, suspence, friendship, and romance.
"Bella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear. " from amazon.com
I have to say that this is my favorite book I have ever read.
