I had some doubts about reading this book because I have seen mixed reviews about it. But on one of my trips to the library it was just sitting there on the shelf calling to me to pick it up. I'm glad I did. While it was not an awesome book it was really enjoyable. Lucius was funny and a nice mix between obnoxiously arrogant and sweetly chivalrous.

I loved this book!!
If you are a fan of teen-vapire-books... THIS IS A MUST READ!!!

This is one of the few vampire books that I like. The whole "genre" of vampire stories is completely getting over done, but this book is not one of the many that is out there. Jessica is a likeable enough character, even if the man she is supposed to marry is a complete douche. Don't get me wrong, he has his good side, but over all Lucius Vladescu is one of those want to be tough guys who are not as bad as they seem.

This is more of a 3.5 review. The last part of the book is head and shoulders over the beginning.
