I am use to reading books where the vampires are the heroes in some ways, or I read allot of vampire romances. So this was definitely a different type of vampire read for me. But I really enjoyed it.

Full Series Review:
Firstly huge plus to January Bain’s vocabulary!! I absolutely LOVE it when I come across words that I don’t know! One of my favorite things about reading, really! And in January’s books there are multiple words that I either had to look up or that I was surprised to see. Absolutely fantastic and really made this reading even better for me.
Secondly, and on a negative note. If you do not like insta love, these may not be for you. In each book of the series there is insta love. Now, don’t get me wrong, this normally doesn’t distress me that much but in these cases it was a bit much. Although the stories were still really good and I enjoyed the vampire aspect of all three, that insta love thing… whew, just kills me sometimes.
Now! With that said!! The characters were really well portrayed. Although there is insta love, I did feel like January helps us get to know the characters in each of these books and the reasons for their motives. And whew! Talk about smoking! There are a few parts where the characters really “get together” and I could feel the heat through my kindle! Love, Love, Love, LOVE how the characters relationships worked AFTER the insta love thing.
I was also surprised as she weaved in a few names that we all know, like Joan of Arc, and although I thought I wouldn’t like this, bit they grew on me and I really enjoyed each of those characters.
And I love a good vamp story, but January weaves a few things into these three books that will leaving you wanting more of them. Each story has it’s own ending but I definitely recommend reading these in order as the characters do show up in the second and third. The endings were also really good, although I would have loved just a bit more with each. It’s not that they were rushed exactly but just that little bit more would have made these perfect!
Love a good vamp romance? Then these are definitely for you!
