Eternal Kiss of Darkness by Jeaniene Frost


Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampire, Magic, Ghouls, Night Huntress
Sub Genre: Urban Fantasy
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: An immortal war has been brewing in the darkness…and now one woman has stumbled into the shadows. Chicago private investigator Kira Graceling should have just kept on walking. But her sense of duty refused to let her ignore the moans of pain coming from inside a warehouse just before dawn. Suddenly she finds herself in a world she’’s only imagined in her worst nightmares. At the center is Mencheres, a breathtaking Master Vampire who thought he’d seen it all. Then Kira appears—this fearless, beautiful……human who braved death to rescue him. Though he burns for her, keeping Kira in his world means risking her life, yet sending her away is unthinkable. But with danger closing in, Mencheres must choose between the woman he craves, or embracing the darkest magic to defeat an enemy bent on his eternal destruction.

This is the second spinoff book that Jeaniene Frost from Night Huntress world. This is Mencheres’ story. Now he feels that there is nothing for him after fulfilling his visions. But Kira comes across him as he is being attacked. Now they are drawn towards one another. It doesn’t help that another Master Vampire is trying to start something as well. This is one of those stories that is just adding to the saga of the Night Huntress world. Mencheres is shown in a new light that is very different from what we have learned of him. Kira is now one of my favorite characters in the series. I loved this book and can’’t wait to read the next book in the series, This Side of the Grave.

First Drop of Crimson by Jeaniene Frost



Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampires, Demons, Magic, Ghouls, Immortals
Sub Genre: Urban Fantasy
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: The night is not safe for mortals. Denise MacGregor knows all too well what lurks in the shadows—her best friend is half-vampire Cat Crawfield—and she has already lost more than the average human could bear. But her family's past is wrapped in secrets and shrouded in darkness—and a demon shapeshifter has marked Denise as prey. Now her survival depends on an immortal who lusts for a taste of her. He is Spade, a powerful, mysterious vampire who has walked the earth for centuries and is now duty-bound to protect this endangered, alluring human—even if it means destroying his own kind. Denise may arouse his deepest hungers, but Spade knows he must fight his urge to have her as they face the nightmare together . . . Because once the first crimson drop falls, they will both be lost.

This is the first spinoff book from the Night Huntress series. It’s a story about Denise whom is Cat’s best friend. She has become a bit of a recluse since the death of her husband. But after one of her cousin’s funerals she loses another one right in front of her. After trying to get in touch with Cat she calls the only number she has left hoping to get some help. Spade isn’t sure what to make of the situation. But he soon finds himself trying desperately to protect Denise. This is a great story. You get to see the characters from the last book as well as a new side to ones that you have already loved before. I couldn’t put it down once I started reading it. I truly loved reading this book and can’t wait to read the next spinoff, Eternal Kiss of Darkness.

Destined for an Early Grave by Jeaniene Frost



Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampire, Magic, Ghouls
Sub Genre: Urban Fantasy
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: Her deadly dreams leave her in grave danger. Since half-vampire Cat Crawfield and her undead lover Bones met six years ago, they’ve fought against the rogue undead, battled a vengeful Master vampire, and pledged their devotion with a blood bond. Now it’s time for a vacation. But their hopes for a perfect Paris holiday are dashed when Cat awakes one night in terror. She’s having visions of a vampire named Gregor who’s more powerful than Bones and has ties to her past that even Cat herself didn’t know about. Gregor believes Cat is his and he won’t stop until he has her. As the battle begins between the vamp who haunts her nightmares and the one who holds her heart, only Cat can break Gregor’s hold over her. She’ll need all the power she can summon in order to bring down the baddest bloodsucker she’s ever faced.. even if getting that power will result in an early grave.

This story had me guessing the whole time. There are so many ups and downs throughout the story. Cat and Bones finding that Mencheres has again been manipulating events so that they go his way. Cat thinking Bones has betrayed him and vise versa. Vlad being there for Cat when she feels like her world is falling apart. Totally has you sitting on the edge of your seat. I loved every minute of it. This whole series is absolutely brilliant. The writing takes you away into this great world. Jeaniene makes sure that the story just gets better. There are so many layers to the whole series. I can’t wait to see where she is going to go with this. The next story in this series is a short story in Magic Graves.

At Grave’s End by Jeaniene Frost


Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampire, Magic, Ghouls
Sub Genre: Urban Fantasy
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: Some things won’t stay buried… at grave’s end. It should be the best time of half-vampire Cat Crawfield’s life. With her undead lover Bones at her side, she’s successfully protected mortals from the rogue undead. But though Cat’s worn disguise after disguise to keep her true identity a secret from the brazen bloodsuckers, her cover’s finally been blown, placing her in terrible danger. As if the wasn’t enough, a woman from Bones’s past is determined to bury him once and for all. Caught in the crosshairs of a vengeful vamp, yet determined to help Bones stop a lethal magic from being unleashed, Cat’s about to learn the true meaning of bad blood. And the tricks she’s learned as a special agent won’t help her. She will need to fully embrace her vampire instincts in order to save herself – and Bones – from a fate worse than the grave.

In this story the undead are coming out of the woodwork. A war between vampires is starting and Bones has to choose sides. Cat wanting to make sure that he lives through this wants to help in any way that she can. We also meet Vlad my third favorite vampire of this series. Mencheres’ battle pulls everyone in and I loved the outcome. I found the whole story to be a nail bighting adventure. I couldn’t get enough of it. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series, Destined for an Early Grave.

One Foot in the Grave by Jeaniene Frost



Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampire, Magic, Ghouls
Sub Genre: Urban Fantasy
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: You can run from the grave, but you can’t hide… Half-vampire Cat Crawfild is now Special Agent Cat Crawfield, working for the government to rid the world of the rogue undead. She’s still using everything Bones, her sexy and dangerous ex, taught her, but when Cat is targeted for assassination, the only man who can help her is the vampire she left behind. Being around him awakens all her emotions, from the adrenaline kick of slaying vamps side by side to the reckless passion that consumed them. But a price on her head – wanted: dead or half-alive – means her survival depends on teaming up with Bones. And no matter how hard she tries to keep things professional between them, she’ll find that desire lasts forever… and that Bones won’t let her get away again.

Ok so years have gone by and now Cat has to let everyone know that Bones isn’t dead, as she needs his help. We meet a bunch of guys that work with Cat as special agents, Tate, Juan, Cooper, Dave and Dan. Great group that made me laugh a lot. The reunion between Cat and Bones was great. I never liked that she left at all. And with Cat finding out about her father’s side of the family was great. The encounter with Max and Ian was great. Beside Bones, Spade has to be one of my favorite characters, mainly for his lines. The end surprised me with what happened with Dave. But I loved every minute of it and can't wait to read the next one in the series, At the Grave's End.

Halfway to the Grave by Jeaniene Frost


Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampire, Magic, Ghouls
Sub Genre: Urban Fantasy
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: Flirting with the grave…Half-vampire Catherine Crawfield is going after the undead with a vengeance, hoping that one of these deadbeats is her father – the one responsible for ruining her mother’s life. Then she’s captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unholy partnership. In exchange for finding her father, Cat agrees to train with the sexy night stalker until her battle reflexes are as sharp as his fangs. She’s amazed she doesn’t end up as his dinner – are there actually good vampires? Pretty soon Bones will have her convinced that being half-dead doesn’t have to be all bad. But before she can enjoy her newfound status as kick-ass demon hunter, Cat and Bones are pursued by a group of killers. Now Cat will have to choose a side…and Bones is turning out to be as tempting as any man with a heartbeat.

Cat dose not take anything from anyone. She goes out every night to kill vampires to make her mother happy. But once she and Bones get together she gets a new perspective on vampires. Heck she even totally falls for Bones. But then I can’t say I blame her. Cat is nothing like you expect. Bones is one of those characters that you just love. I got so captivated by this I was shocked when it was over. And not just how it ended. I'm just glad I have the more of this series as I can't wait to read the next book, One Foot in the Grave.
