I really loved this book. My favorite thing about Brook’s books are the fabulous, flawed, fascinating heroes and heroines. I also like how the couples/characters are all so distinct from one another. No old standbys or cardboard characters here.

I’m glad you mentioned Jane and Sammael. I was feeling weird for liking him and the storyline so much.

You’re very welcome ^^. I’ve got it on preorder from Amazon.de, whenever they get to send their US books to Germany.

Estara– thank you so much for the heads up on the excerpt. Oh, now I am so anxious for this book — I’m stopping by B & N after work 2/5 to get it.

Great review!

Meljean has a wonderful talent for writing incredibly real, perfectly flawed characters and action packed, emotionally intense stories. Charlie is amazing–she and Ethan totally stole my heart.

I loved this book…devoured it like my favorite pizza. I fell in love with both Ethan and Charlie and I think it’s Meljean’s best so far!

Congrats on an awesome review, Meljean!

Not gauche at all, Estara, thanks. Trisha – I did like Ethan particularly because of his past and what he was now but Charlie was definitely a non traditional romance heroine and I just loved her.

The time it took to conclude the story didn’t bother me. My big complaint with the book is something completely different. But my overall grade would be the same and I agree about the strengths, particularly Charlie. Ethan, well, {shrug} he was all right. But Charlie is what really made the book for me. I loved that she was flawed and strong.

Is it gauche to point out there's a 4 chapter preview at The Good, the Bad and the Unread? Because your question is answered there, des.

I’m impatiently waiting for this book and I’m so glad to see it earned a high grade here. Meljean — congratulations and one quick question — do we get to see Hugh and Lilith in this book at all?

I’m supposed to be in lurk-mode for all reviews, but I’m already popping out of it to say, Yay! And that my goal in life has now become to cross the DA B+ mark *g*

Now I’ll go back into lurk mode.
