This turned out to be a really good story. I particularly liked the ending.

FINALLY! When it comes to this series, I am a serious stalker of the author's website. I check weekly, if not daily, to see if there is any news about this series! When the announcement about this book came out, I was doing a happy dance! Wait, you are here for a review and not my excitement. Sorry.
Armand is the father of Thomas, Nicholas and Jeanne Louise. We have met each of them in previous books and the focus of this story is clearing Armand of murder while proving Nicholas is also innocent of his crimes. While Lucian sends Eshe out to Armand's home under the pretense of Armand hiding her out from the bad guys, we also discover that Eshe is actually there to look into the murders of Armand's previous wives. It turns into a mystery of finding out the truth, with romance and witty dialogue along the way!
I loved this book in the series. While I am not a huge fan of the character of Eshe, this book really let her shine and bring Armand into a story of his own. We had the suspense that the author is great at writing, but the important part is she didn't fail on the romance and witty humor that she is also known for! Imagine not eating for centuries and trying to figure out what a can of whipped cream is and how it works! Then imagine looking at a bottle of Metamucil for the first time and seeing a pretty picture on the front thinking it would be yummy! Of course, what makes the humor even better is Bricker trying to explain these things to both of them! I personally can't wait for Bricker's story and I keep begging Ms. Sands to use me as Bricker's life mate!
The suspense was perfectly paced with surprises all throughout the book. The author keeps you guessing at who the true murderer is and kept leading me in different directions. Yet when all is revealed, I was still surprised and loved how it played out.
If you haven't read any of The Argeneau series yet, you must sink your teeth into them as soon as possible! Then when you do, I can guarantee that you will be a series stalker just like me! Well done again Ms. Sands for bringing me another wonderful Argeneau book! Just remember me when you do Bricker's story!

I am EXTREMELY happy to have the elaborate answer to the abrupt end the previous book had. The last ending had me annoyed so I put off reading the next, this, book. I'm glad I picked it up though. I love strong women, and Eshe is definitely a strong willed woman.

Great story! I loved the relationship between Eshe and Armand as well as finding out what happened to all the women in Armand's life. Another great addition to the Argeneau story!

What do you do on a lazy Saturday? Read on and off all day. :D Another good Argeneau vampire romance. I really like Eshe. She's everything I'd like to be strong, smart and very positive. And it was a good mystery! This tied up a lot of loose ends in the last two books. Now Nicholas is cleared and Armand is free to be with his family again. It's great they both have life mates to spend it with.
