Paranormal Romance
The severed head marked by a distinctive tattoo on its cheek should have been a
Guild case, but dark instincts honed over hundreds of years of life compel the
vampire Dmitri to take control. There is something twisted about this death,
something that whispers of centuries long past...but Dmitri's need to discover
the truth is nothing to the vicious strength of his response to the hunter
assigned to decipher the tattoo.
Savaged in a brutal attack that almost
killed her, Honor is nowhere near ready to come face to face with the seductive
vampire who is an archangel's right hand, and who wears his cruelty as boldly as
his lethal sensuality...the same vampire who has been her secret obsession since
the day she was old enough to understand the inexplicable, violent emotions he
aroused in her.
As desire turns into a dangerous compulsion that might
destroy them both, it becomes clear the past will not stay buried. Something is
hunting...and it will not stop until it brings a blood-soaked nightmare to life
once more...
{4.5 stars}
**spoiler alert**
Pleasantly surprised. I wasn't sure how much I would like a Guild Hunter novel that didn't focus on Elena and Raphael, but I loved it. Dmitri's story is great. It does flash back alot to how he was Made, but it really works for the story. It is important that you understand what happened to him and his family so you will know why he is the way he is now. Honor has lived thru something no person should ever go through. And It becomes apparent early on that Honor is Dmitri's wife reincarnated. Which just makes the story that much better. It takes them the whole book to realize it. But watching Dmitri become something other than the cold heartless killer he has been for a thousand years was something special. Wrapped around the couple are 2 sub plots, one is Dmitri helping Honor hunt down those who kidnapped and tortured her. The other is Dmitri's past coming back to haunt him in a disgruntled vampire who wants revenge for Dmitri killing his "love". An angel who was as cruel as she was beautiful, and Dmitri's Maker. But enough of the spoilers, don't put this book aside because its about another couple, they are worth the read!!!
