“In the realm of the Dark-Hunters, there is a code of honor that even immortal bad boys must follow: Harm no human. Drink no blood. Never fall in love.“But every now and again, a Dark-Hunter thinks himself above the Code. That’s when I’m summoned. Who am I? I’m the one thing the fearless fear. Step over the line and it’s my wrath you will face. Nothing can touch me. Nothing can sway me. I am relentless and unfeeling.
“Or so I though until I met a female Dark-Hunter who goes by the name of Danger—it’s not her name, it’s how she lives her life. She doesn’t trust me at all. And who could blame her? She alone knows that I’m here to be judge, jury, and, most likely, executioner of her friends. Yet she is my key to saving some of them. Without her, they will all die.
“Dangereuse St. Richard is a deadly distraction. Something about her is reawakening a heart I thought was long dead. But in a race against evil, the only hope mankind has is that I do my duty when it means that I will have to sacrifice the only woman I’ve ever loved?”
I haven’t read a Sherrilyn Kenyon book in a while and I will admit that it was really nice to get back to her style of writing. This book contained the first female Dark-Hunter in the series and I have to say that it was good, but it wasn’t amazing. I pictured the female Dark-Hunter to be more like the character Tabitha from the previous books, but she was much more subdued—though she had her own edge. The book actually seemed really short and I breezed through it.
The Alexion was an amazing character! He was wonderfully fascinating to read about and it was great to learn more about Acheron and the history behind the Dark-Hunters. Overall, the plot was interesting and moved very well. The ending was ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! The writing was beautiful—as always—and the characters were very well-written and easy to fall for. It wasn’t my favorite, but it will not deter me from reading more of Kenyon’s works. I am TOTALLY addicted to her works!
