I was shockingly disappointed in this book.................
I have m hawke's House of Shadows (Enchantment in Crimson) and that was an interesting read. So I jumped at the chance to get this book. Please, it was not worth the price. This book is awful, I could never care about the male lead, he was boorish, chauvanistic, and treated his love interest like a thing. He was so bad, it was only when I have half way through the book that I understood he was the "good guy"???!!!!! All I can say is save your money, get the House of Shadows instead.
Great read
I recieved the book last week, and just finished it. I loved it. I am not the reading type, and a book has to grab me within the first couple of pages. This book did just that. I was also surprised. In a good way. I figured it was going to be like a porn. All sex and no story line. I was so wrong. There was just enough sex to steam up the pages, but it had a VERY good story line and with spectacular visual images. This was my first Morgan Hawke piece that I've read, and it sure won't be the last!!! (p.s. who can resist a hot story about a sexy vampire?)
Not your mama's (paranormal) historical romance!
Morgan Hawke writes with bite, and I've read everything I can get my hands on by this talented author. If you haven't read any of her previous novels, be aware you are in for a steamy read. This novel may have a historical setting, but it in no way resembles the historical romance novels written by Barbara Cartland. More like an erotic League of Extaordinary Gentlemen. Besides the fact that the two main characters are magical beings, one an American government courier werewolf and the other a European watch-making vampire (and former tsar), the chemistry between the two is white hot. They get kinky, they get rough, they get nasty - not your typical bodice ripper, for which I am exceedingly grateful. Aphrodesia is a publisher known for pushing the limits when it comes to sex, and KOTW is no exception. Oh, and it actually has a plot - a very good one. There's a plague of the walking dead sweeping Europe. Who is their creator? How were/are they created? How can they be stopped? How much does humankind know? All these questions and more will be answered in KOTW. In fact, I think this could be the beginning of a sexy series featuring the otherworldly Senate our couple must report to and their presence among mankind.
