I also liked the way the vampirism was portrayed. It affected Nick and his friends and the trajectory their lives took. I liked that the trauma from the graduation day incident wasn't brushed off. The friendship between Chester and Byron, what Chester, and even Sean, did for Byron, was heartwarming too. For ten years or so since then, they've lived together and hunted down baddies together and stuck together through thick and thin. Nick and his friends were close in school, but the trauma they experienced together on the night of their graduation brought them even closer. Also, hot damn, this author knows how to write sexy vampire biting! Seriously, those biting + sex scenes were just fantastic.įriendship was an important element too. The romance was perhaps a bit fast, but it didn't really feel too fast. And knowing that Chester never abandoned him, went out of his way to search for Byron in fact, was so heartwarming. *SPOILER* He'd been so convinced of his guilt, but it turned out even in his bloodlust, the worst thing he ever did was kill a goat. After the sexy biting scenes, my favorite scene was the one when I realized the true depth of his angst and guilt and pain and when he finally learned the truth about things that had been haunting him. He had so much personal angst and turmoil, feeling like he'd been abandoned and forsaken by his friends, the man he loved, God. They felt believable and developed and unique-even the spirit in the house Byron was living in was unique and interesting and her own character-and I felt for them. The best thing for me was the characters and the emotion they brought. This is one of those books with great everything! *I received an ecopy of this book via Hidden Gems.
