Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Can't wait to read the next one!This is the first Karen Chance book I've ever read, and I have already ordered the second book in this series. This book had me entranced from the beginning. I can't wait to continue it and see what happens to Cassie next! I think anyone who likes vampires and the paranormal will love this book!

I liked it enough to order the 2nd and 3rd books in the series before I got to the end of the book --- so I could start reading them immediately upon finishing this one. Rating:  - The heroine is a bit self centeredI think the problem I have with this series is with Cassandra. She's tends to be a bit whimsical and self centered. As if the entire universe owes her one and she's entitled to collected from anyone she meets. So you will have conversations like member of group: "you almost got me killed!!!" cassandra: "suck it up" --two minutes later-- cassandra: "watch what you're doing! you could have gotten me killed!!" and the person she is talking to is presumably expected ...
