 Another winner.... October 7, 2008
I can't get enough of these books. They're like dessert, a treat every time. If you want a fun escape "The Immortals After Dark" series is for you. I'm forever a Kresley Cole fan.
 Kresley Cole has written a fabulous series September 25, 2008
For those following the series, this book will not disappoint. For those readers just picking up Cole's works for the first time, you should prepare to purchase the rest of the series. Cole builds a fabulous world that is easy and delightful to learn. I rank Cole's series right up there with J.R. Ward's Brotherhood series and Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter series.
You don't need to love paranormals to love this book September 17, 2008
I'm not a big fan of the paranormal genre and this is my first Kresley Cole purchase. I read the reviews first before I bought this at a store. I had 2 other Immortals books in my hand and decided to go with this one after reading the premise and the first page. As a fledling writer I was curious to see how Ms Cole would resolve such a brilliantly difficult conflict: how do a tormented vampire and a ghost find love?
What thrilled me about this story is that it transcends the genre to the point where you want to find out how these two beings will make it work, you want to find out more about them. I love that the hero starts out very dark and villianlike with a secret that the heroine finds very sexy. I won't give it away but I thought it was a brilliant twist on the author's part. The personality pairing is sexy and intriguing as it unfolds. The paranormal aspect is very easy to follow and doesn't intrude on the humanity of the characters the way explaing of folklores can.
Beautifully written.
seriously wanted to hate it but it was okay August 27, 2008
I had my heart set on Conrad falling in love with Nix because they are both crazy but at the end when Myst and Kaderin are planning to go to war against the vampire king to get their husbands back...love it. Plus, Nix stating Mike Rowe from "Dirty Jobs" is in love with her...hilarious. I want desperately to read Lucia's story and Regan's.
Love this series~ August 17, 2008
I have been reading romance novels since I was 15, so a good 20 years now. In my mind nothing like a cup of tea and a good romance novel to escape and unwind at the end of a day.
Just to give a sample of my taste, other authors I enjoy are: Jen Holling, Connie Brockway, Johanna Lindsey, Julie Garwood, Christina Dodd, just to name a few.
This entire series is such a page turner. I had a hard time putting any of the titles down. More evenings than I care to admit I stayed up way to late "just to read one more chapter".
I love that the brothers are all together in this book working to save a fallen brother. Love that they are doing what they can to save the one vampire that most likely cannot be saved. The sparks between Neomi Laress and Conrad are just fantastic from the beginning. I could not find out fast enough how on earth these two could be together.
I enjoyed the glimpse of supporting characters so you felt that any of them would be enjoyable to read about in their own series. The entire series is fast and there is not a lot of review of what happened in a prior book. You open the book and off you go. These are not slow moving. I laughed, I cried, I blushed. Boy Ms. Cole writes some steamy scenes. Wow! And I am amazed that nothing repeats. Each book is so different, the plots are so different and the way the main characters relate is so different. Yes they do all have hansom men and lovely ladies. But the dynamic relationship between the main characters is simply fire from page 1 to the end. Out of all my years reading romance. I have never read modern romance before. I can say without a doubt that these are the best romance books I have read and that is truly saying a lot considering how many authors works sit on my shelf.
