A continuation of the "War of Gods" saga ...As the single-most powerful vampire on the planet, Xander is the ultimate bored predator with too much time on his hands. He manipulates the minds of immortals for fun and bullies around the Gods, while guarding the secret source of his power, a crystal that can wipe out the planet. But beneath the surface, he's a shrewd creature who learned the brutal lesson of why there must be a balance between good and evil. An unwilling protector of the playthings known as humans, he knows when and where to use his power - and never to let anyone close enough to betray him. It's easy to do, since he has the power to read the minds of everyone around him.Except for one: Jessi, an innocent looking woman with an unusual talent who shows up unexpectedly in his life. Her sudden appearance is too convenient to be coincidence or chance. Xander determines quickly that she was sent by someone, but he can't read her mind to discover why. Jessi's secret - and Xander's - have the power to forever change the human world. Intrigued by a new sort of challenge, Xander won't know how much danger he's in, until he's placed his fate in the hands of a woman whose betrayal will cost either his heart or his life.

Xander's Chance by Lizzy Ford
OMG comes to mind when thinking about this book. This is my 5th book that I have read by her and man does her writing just keep getting better and better. Her writing is like Karen Marie Moning to me! ADDICTIVE!! Holy Moly I had emotional overload while reading this book!! I loved the characters and I loved their banter back and forth. I loved how Xander is mysterious bad boy who has a hidden nice streak. Half the time I wanted to yell at Jessie and say hurry up give in give in!! I did an almost part of the nighter reading this book I just couldn't for the life of me put the thing down. AMAZING!! I was so entralled I'm having a hard time explaining it. Have to read it for yourself to understand! I'm in love and his name is Xander!! The story is well written and flowed wonderfully and there was something always happening in the book. Had a hard time sitting still.
The book starts out by giving the reader insight into how Xander came to be then goes to modern day where he is like a reluctant immortal policeman who only does something when someone messes up. I guess more like a mediator especially between the black god and white god. A secret plan is hatched and a Natural named Jessie is blackmailed into stealing something Xander holds dear. Xander is blindsided my this mortal who happens to have the ability to be stealthy and hidden from reading her mind. He takes it as a challenge. What will happen? Gotta read!! (
