This is the most different story and I loved it, full of depth, it's about life and living, death and dying. Although I knew there's a happy ending, Sherrilyn Kenyon put a lot of obstacles between the characters before attaining that happiness. They're like Romeo and Juliet, their love was forbidden because of who and what they were.

Wulf is a different Dark-Hunter than the rest of them and I liked the story behind that. I was a little confused at the first mention of Talon then I realized the events were simultaneous when Wulf called him while he was ordering chicory coffee and beignets. This story has a longer time frame because somewhere in the middle, Zarek's became a demigod. It's good to know he lived in a beach, it's quite cute, he's my fave DH after all.

Going back to Wulf and Cassandra, their story was really special, both of them were desperate and I really liked their fighting spirit. I also loved the reappearance of the characters in the previous books. As usual, Acheron played a vital role in this story. His squire Chris was equally interesting, I always have a soft spot for nerds and the way Wulf hovered around him was understandable, and the usual jokes and cracks were here.

The love scenes were hot but I was a little disturbed when they did it while Cassandra was pregnant. Putting that aside, I loved the story and the characters. ( )

This one wasn't too bad. I like the main characters, there was some drama, and some threatening tears and such, met some new characters as well. It was good and funny as well. ( )

Dear Reader,

What do you get when you take one immortal Viking warrior no one can remember five minutes after he leaves their presence, an Apollite heiress on the run for her life, and one seriously pissed off demigod? Basically, you get my life.

It started out simple enough. I went to save a woman one night in a club. The next thing I knew, the doorway to hell had opened and out stepped Daimons the likes of which I'd never seen before. Led by the son of Apollo, they are out to end the curse that has banished them all to darkness. The only problem with that is they have to kill Cassandra Peters to do it and if she dies, so dies the sun, the earth and all who dwell here. Life's just a bowl full of cherries, ain't it?

Brought together by fate, it's now my job to protect a daughter of the very race I have been hunting for centuries. Neither of us dares to trust the other. But she is the only one who remembers me... More than that, with her courage and strength, she is the only one who has ever touched a heart that I thought died centuries ago.

The only way for a Dark-Hunter to regain his soul is through the love of a woman. But what happens when that woman isn't exactly human?

Wulf Tryggvasen

I enjoy the Dark-Hunter books not only because they have some hot and steamy romance, but because I think that Kenyon’s created a really interesting mythology here. I learned a lot more about Apollites and Daimons in this book, and I think I’m finally starting to understand the big picture a little more. Plus, you know, there’s the hot and steamy stuff. ( )

Love this series...
