This book was pretty good but not great. The first half moved pretty slow. It was 100 pages or so before the heroine and hero met. There was a lot of set up. The second half of the book moved pretty fast. Lots of fighting, love making and vampire plotting, etc. You didn't learn a whole lot about the vampire world itself just the one evil vampire. So if there are going to be more books there is plenty left to explain.

The hero and heroine spent a lot of the time at odds with each other. I generally prefer books where the two are together against whatever bad guy etc. The attraction was pretty good even though they were distrustful adversaries much of the time. The love between them was fairly fast but really more believable from him since he had never had love before and wanted it. Although it might have been stronger if we had more time in the hero's POV. I never really saw much of a reason for her love for him except for her realization that he was not really an evil killer.

Minor SPOILERS below:

The very end was a bit of a let down. I was expecting more from the LOST guys. It sucked big time that they didn't run out to help her when Marcus was down. I don't see how that can be overcome in future books as it seems is the intention. The scene where we get the info on the vampire's solution for Marcus would have been much stronger if we had been there for the scene not just have a two paragraph 'here's what happened' conversation. Maybe some of those extra pages at the front could have been left out so the end could have been more fully told.

I liked the story line and the action, the whole concept of the book. But somehow it didn't grab me and I don't know why. I should have loved it, but I only liked it. I'm not sure if it's the voice or because I did not really like Jax - I just could not relate to her. Or maybe it's because I'm getting tired of all the killing because all these 'we are going to save the world teams' are playing judge/jury and executioner.
I'm more than willing to give this author another try, though.

3,5- 4*

can't rate this book because the male lead is a dick (as in he sees his wife who he supposingly killed for killing their little daughter) and the first thing he does? Tries to have sex with her on the spot instead of asking what the hell is going on... Says tons about his intelligence and sensitivity, doesn't it? No, thank you. I'd rather stop reading now and save myself some grief.
