"Moving and Emotional Vampire Romance"
Elisa, the young maid of Lady Daniela, is the protector of
six violent "child" vampires, vampires that should not have
been made and are given one more chance at as normal a life
as can be. After a series of horrifying events, Elisa,
damaged physically and mentally, is sent with the young
vampires to Malachi, a Native American vampire who has
dedicated his life to rehabilitating big cats. Lady Daniela
believes Malachi is the only one who can tell if the young
vampires can be allowed to survive, or if they must be
destroyed. Elisa is there to give background on the young
vampires, and, Lady Daniela hopes, to mend her broken
heart. Malachi has his own scars and, with the help of the
staff and his cats, Malachi and Elisa are drawn to each
other in the hopes that together, they can heal themselves.
But in order to be together, they will have to overcome
past and future events, including more heartbreak and
cruelty. I LOVED this book. This book is so sexy and emotional. The
author writes beautifully and she makes you feel for the
characters so much. I was crying in several parts of this
book, Elisa and Malachi both have damaged souls and they
are perfect together. Elisa is a strong character and,
while sometimes she can be emotionally frail, still has a
strong heart and wants to please and be of help to
everyone. Malachi is a brooding vampire, he seems to be
most comfortable around his cats, and does not know what to
make of his feelings toward Elisa. Some of the characters
in this novel first appear in a previous book, Vampire's
Claim, but this can be read as a stand alone novel. Most of
the previous events mentioned in this novel occur after the
story in Vampire's Claim, and there is enough explanation
and background on the characters to not have to read the
previous story. But as for me, this is the first book in
the series that I have read, and I have just bought all the
previous stories to read. I hope the author continues this
series, because I can't wait to read what happens next.

As servant to vampire mistress Lady Daniela, Elisa’s devotion is unwavering—until Lady D makes it clear that the children entrusted to Elisa’s care may be destroyed, if they cannot be integrated into the vampire world. Elisa’s young charges are vampires of such potent desires as to belie their youth, given to a reckless bloodlust that makes their assimilation nearly impossible. But Elisa has one desperate option. His name is Malachi, a Native American vampire who is a legend for his work with rehabilitating feline predators. With his primal understanding of the rules of survival, he is the fledglings’ last hope. But it is Elisa who is feeling the heat of his irresistible animal instincts. Now, as Malachi struggles to control the children’s impulses, he opens himself up to those of Elisa—and the passion they all share for the night could seal their fates forever.
