Comments
This is the first in a series of books and is a great vampire story. It kept me interested right to the end. There is plenty of action with some unexpected twists. Rose is a tough but caring friend to Lissa and those she loves and is pretty likeable. The book does switch back in time a bit which was a bit confusing. Overall it’s an awesome book and is one story that is definitely worth checking out.
