This is the first book by Lara Adrian and the first in the Midnight Breed Series. It took me a while to get into the book; I actually put it down and started reading other things. One day I had free time and decided to give the book another try. After a few chapters I was hooked and couldnt put it down. I definitely want to read more about these Breed Warriors.

The characters are well developed and I enjoyed the story. Lucan is the leader of the Breed Warriors and one of the oldest vampires still living also known as a Gen One. He has been alive for over 800 years and has yet to fall in love. He is known as one of the "hardest" vampires there are...maybe even cold hearted. When fate brings Lucan to the doorstep of Gabrielle Maxwell he doesnt know what to do with himself, he is instantly drawn to her. He has never felt like this for anyone and he shouldnt be feeling this way now, especially for Gabrielle who is a breedmate. As time goes on the two of them become closer and Gabrielle manages to melt Lucans cold heart one drop at a time.

With this being the first book of a series it has a lot of background information to set up a baseline for the rest of the books and characters to come. Kiss of Midnight is similar to many books out there meaning it is about love, lust, and the pursuit of happiness above all else. It is about the unbreakable bond between two who love each other without bounds. The main character will do anything to protect his love interest.

The characters are comparable to the characters in the Black Dagger Brotherhood with a few vampire lore differences. If you liked the BDB by JR Ward you will like this series as well. I have books 2, 3, and 4 of the series waiting to be readI hope they all captivate me like to end of this book did. I cant wait to read them all!
