The story is of April, who has recently escaped a murder and is trying to find a cure for her vampire boyfriend so that he won't die.

I didn't enjoy this book, whether it was the fact that it was another paranormal romance, which all appear to be exactly the same since 'Twilight', or that I didn't like the idea behind it. I don't know, but it didn't go down well with me at all.

For starters I disliked the main characters. April was horrible to all of her friends, and her boyfriend yet they appeared to worship her. She only thought about herself, in fact it is mentioned several times in the 'why aren't you thinking about' me phrase. She was horrible to her mother, the reason she chose to leave home was ridiculous. Her mother was weak and pathetic, had no control over April, and made lame excuses. Gabriel was selfish and I have no idea why April so clearly adored him. I did like, however Ben, Layla and Davina, who I thought were powerful well built characters.

Secondly, I thought it dragged on a bit. It was unnecessarily long, and too much time was spent on the wrong things and little time on the others. For example she found the book to cure Gabriel in no time at all, yet it took ages for her to work out other things, like who The Regent was, though it was clear to the reader at the start.

Thirdly, the plot would have been more interesting if it was less predictable and could be livened up a bit with some twists and turns that you wouldn't expect.

However I do think that the writer has talent, and that she should use her talent to her advantage but in another genre of books, because I didn't feel that her writing style was suited to paranormal romances.
