My Book Summary : At one time Roland was a Paladin---one of the Light, a protector against all that is evil---until Christos (an evil Master vampire) turned him and slaughtered Roland's family. Now he is a vampire who does his best to be good even though it's harder then hell sometimes for him to do so.
Just when he thinks, he has his "new" life all planned out for himself Karissa lands on his doorstep. She is Light in and of itself, the prettiest woman he's ever seen, minus her ratty outfit. However, he's not the only one who wants her .... since she happens to be the last known female Paladin she is quite a commodity to those good and evil, and now it's up to Roland to do everything in his power to protect her ... and possibly keep her.
My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars!! This novel/series is an interesting mix of mystery, romance, and the supernatural. I could not get enough!! The multiple plots that are within this novel seem to start off a great foundation for what this series could turn into and I am definitely excited as to where Tes will take it next.
There were some parts in this novel that did drag on a bit for me. However, I really enjoyed reading about the Paladins and their ways (even if their ways need revamping), and I'm curious as to see what will change within their organization because of what happens at the end of this novel. =0)
For the characters ... I really liked the relationship and chemistry between Roland and Karissa. They made quite a pair and I hope they'll be in the future novels so I can see how their relationship grows. Nevertheless, my favorite character in this novel was Gabriella!!! I loved finding out her background information and why she does some of the things she does. I really hope that she'll be the main character in the next book in this series!! ♥
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys good vs evil plots with a hot lot of hot guys and some spicy sex scenes thrown in. =0)
Book Teaser(s) :
As disguises went, this one worked as well as any. Maybe better, given the genes she'd inherited from Mommy Dearest. May she rot in hell. ~ within Chapter 10
"As you know, I am not a full Paladin any longer."
What? Not a Paladin? Karissa lifted her gaze. Roland was leaning over the sink, carefully dabbing the blood off a cut on his forearm that had already healed. Oh, right. Honestly, she'd momentarily forgotten about the whole vampire thing. ~ within Chapter 15
