Synopsis:
Brother against Brother
Life in
Crimson Cove has been good to the Colter Brothers since Gretchen VanTreese was
staked and her horde of vampires scattered. Brooks is once again human, and
Cade, the rare Sire Gretchen had determined to take as her mate, is in love.
Then the unthinkable happens: Gretchen rises from the grave, and the brothers
are torn apart, their lives - and the peace between them - shattered.
A Trail of Blood
When Cade
comes into possession of an ancient ceremonial dagger he awakens a power so deadly
it defies comprehension. Meanwhile, a serial killer is stalking the little
mountain town, leaving a trail of blood that leads to a truth Sheriff Ethan
Hunter doesn't want to face. And unknown to either of them, Gretchen is
preparing to reopen her notorious nightclub, The Crimson Corset - and building
an army to destroy her enemies and reclaim Cade Colter as her own.
A New Breed of Evil
The streets
are no longer safe, nor are the forested paths, for a new and unknowable evil
has come to Crimson Cove and everyone - vampire and human alike - must come
together in order to survive.
My
review:
Oh what a perfect series, but I wan book three now!
Please don’t leave me hanging and thirsty (pun intended) for more…I am hooked and and now my teeth are
well and truly sank into this series I can’t stop thinking about what is to
come next. But enough silly puns, here’s my views.
First book left me nice and warm inside, feeling
as accomplished as Brooks, Cade and Ethan were feeling. We were all happy and
living in a land of friendly vamps only and nothing could spoil the happy
picture. We unless you are still a vampire in retrograde i.e. Brooks, and you
maker gets a wake-up call. So yes, happiness over, please welcome feelings of
fear, anger and misery all round.
Book two is so different. The author deals with
a deep an dark depression of the main character Cade following just one tragic
death too many and gosh does he deal with it. Anyone that has ever experienced
depression either from themselves or from a loved one, will be familiar with
everything Cade is going through.
And then we have the vampires. The goods ones
(but are they) and the bad ones, that we were all hoping were asleep forever. Ethan
is awesome by the way, he has a lot on his shoulders and tries to do right by
all and it only gets him into more trouble. Brooks is dealing with his own
guilt and transformation and suddenly I really like him – he has grown into a
brilliant character that you just want to read about.
This book has it all: blood, death, tragedy,
love, ex-wives, fiancés, hunger, revenge, depression, hope…the list could go
on. It’s edge of the seat book and I really cannot wait for the next book
brings. Please hurry!
Massive thanks to Alistair Cross for writing
such a perfect series and his publicist for introducing me the books.
