While reading this book, I realized that had I started this series with book one I might not have kept reading. This book is very underdeveloped and reads almost like a long definition of Sands version of Vapmire or rather Immortal. I suppose my point is that if you are unsure after reading this book if you should check out the others, I strongly suggest you do and I believe you will find the further this series goes the stronger and more rewarding the stories.

It only took me three days to complete this one, and I liked it. There is no uncomfortable sexual scenes, one after another like most books. It keeps moving very quickly like watching a good movie it keeps your interest nicely. It is not how you would think by the back introduction, but it is much better. No one is as they seem at first and more of a change by the end. A definate recomend.

Not a favorite. Expect run on sentences, and over explanations. I found myself simply skimming the pages in order to get to the exiting bits. And, I don't mean the romance. This book had little plot development and if you are looking for romance you will find very little. Sands version of vampires, whilst unique, has no intrigue or mystery...in a word, boring.

I though this book was ok. I consider it vampire fluff compared to other vampire books I've read. It was a cute story but, I wasn't crazy aobut somethings in it. Like how they could go out durring the day.

Book One of Lynsay Sands' Argeneau series. I liked Sands' take on the origin of vampires - it was very creative. This book was a little bit too fluffy for my taste. I like my vampire books a little more scary. It was a quick, fun read, though. If you're a fan of Lynsay Sands, and you're not looking for Laurell K. Hamilton or Kim Harrison-style vampires, you'll like this book.
