Back Cover: Readers beware of a
new kind of vampire – one that feeds off tears instead of blood. Descended from
an ancient line of creatures that gain their energy from human tears, Cassandra
Gray depends on human sorrow to live. Her job as a grief counselor at the
hospital provides the perfect cover to keep this secret safe, and any time a
friend needs a shoulder to cry on, she’s there. But Cass has grown tired of
living this lie and wants to live like a human, especially now that she’s
fallen in love with one.
I love this new idea on vampires.
I didn’t know if I like Cassandra’s family dynamics. The whole thing where the
females live away from the males is all kind of odd. I can understand why
Cassandra wants to be human. Her relationships before Scott are very different,
with her not really having any feeling at all. I found the whole story very
different from the normal vampire stories. There is the whole teen angst with
high school gossip there, heck I almost felt like I was back in high school. I
truly felt like I was right beside the character through everything. I loved reading
this story.
