So far this is the weakest of Christine Warren's Others series that I have read. Ada Markham still can't quite accept that her best friends have all turned to or into Others and is feeling quite resentful in her loneliness. Fate conspires against her when she is attacked by a vampire and turned into one herself.

Vladimir "Dima" Rurikovich is an elite member of the European Council of Vampires and is in America on a covert mission - to find an escaped vampire fugitive who is murdering humans wantonly. He comes upon Ada and rescues her from death and nurses her through a painful transformation, falling in love with her in the process.

It's all rather formulaic within the genre and within Warren's world of Others, and this story is weaker than most of hers. I could not relate to the characters, particularly the bitchy Ada, and found myself bored through most of this book. The only real entertainment was when Ada's friends and their spouses came into the picture.
