"I wish there would have been a 3.5 star designation...
I was really looking forward to this one because I knew the woman was the one who said the vow first, and I was looking forward to reading one of these where the woman wasn't so dominated and "taken" by the man. Of course, she still manages to get some of that feel in there, but I think the overall tone is different. From the beginning, Gabriel appreciates Francesca's good qualities and isn't as overbearing as some of the males in the other books. I guess you could say his learning curve is shorter. Anyway, whether it was the break I took from reading the series, or this one was just better, I enjoyed reading it much more than the past couple."
"Evading vampires, Carpathians and human hunters for so many centuries, Francesca Del Ponce was amazed that the one male she wanted to avoid the most walked out of the darkness and into her arms. Hunger was such a strong feeling as Gabriel emerged from his disturbed rest only to find one of the most healing souls he had ever run across. As soon as Francesca realized who was with her, her lifemate, she knew what would happen, offering her life for his seemed her only option to save him, and herself. The strength of these two ancients should be enough to defeat any enemy, but could either of them destroy Gabriel's twin brother, Lucian, the most powerful of all the hunters known to the Carpathians, and save the human girl that had captured all three of their attentions.
Book 8 ..... The legend come to life, we have heard a couple of stories about these powerful twins in several other books, it is wonderful to finally meet them. It is amazing how much more gentle Gabriel is, considering where he has been for nearly 2 centuries. It is also fun to watch him learn about 'contraptions' and the computer. I loved the ending, expected it, but still absolutely loved it (no spoiler here). I liked the references to Gregori, Aidan and Julian, especially the memory of Julian's dark touch, it really brings the books together. The depth of the characters are so great because of the continuing line, it makes it hard to recommend as a stand alone story, but a wonderful paranormal series."
"These seem to finally taking the slight turn from PNR to UF a tiny bit more.
I liked this one. There was a little more plot than some of the others, there were some noticeable changes to the sex scenes that was a bit of a relief from the previous offerings, the male protagonist was not insufferably alpha and the female protagonist was not a whiner.
I also like there being a bit more of a focus on some of the longer story arcs, but not so much that you get left feeling like you got a manipulative cliff hanger.
The prose is still considerably flowery, but all in all it's a better effort than most of the previous ones. I remain hopeful."
"4 1/2 stars. Perhaps one of the best in her series so far. I liked this book, the plot and action. It was, perhaps, a bit predictable but everything turned out exactly as I wanted it to so...
This was Gabriel's story, which, of course, involved Lucian as well. The romance was nice in this story, and balanced itself out well with the plot running along side it. I'd been waiting for the story of the legendary twins, had great hopes for it, and wasn't disappointed. I'm really looking forward to Lucian's story. Off to the next!"
