Kiss of the Night

I will start Kiss of the Night tonight. This is the sixth in the Dark-Hunter series. From the back cover, I know that Kiss of the Night is the story of Wulf Tryggvasen. Wulf is the Dark-Hunter that can't remember anyone five minutes after he leaves their presence.

Phantom Pleasures

Phantom Pleasures is amazing!!! Julie Leto grabs you from page 1 and takes you on a wild ride to the end. Alexa and Damon are magical together. The story starts in the 1700's and then comes into 2008. There is magic and mystery to keep you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out the ending. Alexa and Damon are both very strong characters with their own ideas as to who is in charge. Cat is Alexa's best friend and is sent on a mission for Alexa where she meets Ben. Cat and Ben have great chemistry, and I can't wait to find out what happens between Cat and Ben as the series progresses. The next book in the series is Phantom Touch, which comes on in December.

Finished Dance with the Devil

I think it only took me about 3 hours total to finish Dance with the Devil. It was a very fast read and I loved the story of Zarek. Zarek is the Dark-Hunter that has been exiled to Alaska for over 900 years. He is up for judgement for crimes that could have him put to death. The judge that Acheron and Artemis send to give the final answer is Astrid, who is the youngest sister of the Fates. Astrid must find something good in Zarek to keep him from being turned into a Shade. Unknown to Zarek and Astrid, Artemis has sent out Thanatos to dispose of Zarek and he won't answer her summons to return to her. Dance with the Devil is a fast paced book that keeps you going until you get to the very last page. Zarek becomes so much more than even Acheron knew he was capable of becoming. I planned on going right into the next Dark-Hunter novel, but I picked up Phantom Pleasures by Julie Leto after church, and must finish it first. Julie has been posting a chapter a day since Monday, so I can't wait to see what happens in the next chapter!

Dance with the Devil

Tonight I will begin Dance with the Devil. I believe this is the story of Zarek, who I was introduced to in Night Embrace. I like Zarek from the first time he hit the pages, because he appears to be such a complex person. By the end of Night Embrace, you could tell there was much more to him than what he wanted to show others.

Night Embrace

Night Embrace tells the story of Talon of the Morrigantes and Sunshine Runningwolf. The Dark-Hunter series continues with twist and turns that I personally didn't see coming. You can actually feel the emotions between Talon and Sunshine coming off the pages.

You also meet a couple of new Dark Hunters that hopefully will get their own stories in the future. The story of Acheron remains a mystery that I know will get answers over the series and in his book that is coming out in August. Acheron appears to be the most complex character in the series and I can't wait to finish each book so I can find out not only more about Acheron, but also all the other Dark Hunters.
