Blood-Kissed Sky
It's a classic tale, boy meets girl, girl falls for boy, boy turns out to be a vampire. Not just any vampire, mind you, the son of one of the fourteen original families. Dawn and Victor have been through it together. She gave him her blood to save his life. But Vampires and humans should not mix. Especially when Dawn is the human delegate to the Valentine family. And now that he has killed his father, Victor is the Valentine family. To add insult to injury, Victor's evil half brother, Sin is out to get Dawn and all those she loves. When Dawn realizes it's more than jealousy, her world is turned completely upside down and she will have to make a life changing decision if she is to save those she loves. She takes the Night Train to Los Angeles to see how they handle The Thirst- a vampire disease that turns vampires into uncontrollable monsters. Something about Los ANgeles isn't right, but the group can't figure out what it is. Everyone is too perfect, happy and well cared for. With her friends, Michael, Tegan and the most famous vampire hunter in the world, Dawn comes face to face with the person calling to her in her dreams. But that dream may just be an nightmare that will not go away in the light of day. Can Victor save her in time? This is the second book in a trilogy that started with Darkness Before the Dawn by J.A. London. It is an interesting view of a world where vampires and humans have reached a shaky truce that could crumble to the ground in an instant. And there is the irresistible vampire/human love story. But Dawn is no Bella, she can hold her own, both with her mind AND a stake. So give it a try if you like this genre. All the books are out so waiting is not required. As for me, it's time to catch up with June and Day in the final book in Marie Lu's Legend series. Happy reading my friends!
