Publisher's summary

One moment can change your life forever....

A chance encounter on a darkened street draws Violet Lee into a world beyond her wildest imaginings - a timeless place of vast elegance and immeasurable wealth, of beautiful mansions and lavish parties, where a decadent group of vampires lives for pleasure alone. A place from which there is no escape - no matter how hard Violet tries.

Because all the riches in the world can't mask the darkness that lies beneath the gilded surface, embodied in the charismatic but dangerous Kaspar Varn.

Violet and Kaspar surrender to a passion that transcends their separate worlds - but it's a passion that comes at a price.

poor reading

the reader was very annoying to me, she kept pausing after every sentence for far too long as if she were reading directions instead of performing a dialogue, but the book in itself is awesome I loved the story and hope it gets a movie deal lol

Darkly Beautiful

I'm not sure where to start. As this story went along at the beginning I was unsure of it. But as it progressed it unfolded into something beautiful. Two people from 2 totally different worlds some how find their way to one another. You get to experience the development of the relationship and eventually their love inspite of something or someone constantly trying to rip them apart. Worth the credit or purchase. It is well written and the narrator did an awesome job with all the characters.

Series isn’t finished warning

I don’t believe a thesaurus has enough words to discribe the comfort this book gives me when reading or listening. I own it in hard copy, e-copy, and audio. Violet is like my best friend and the worlds it introduces you to just make me want to step inside the pages. I will Forewarn you that there is only two books in the series published and so far no vision of the completion on the herizon. I still reread the two over and over. When I’m in a slump or just can’t seem to get into any other book I always turn back to this series even with it being incomplete.

A great vampire story

I not sure if the book called Autumn Rose by this author is a contuiation of this series but I certainly hope the author continues writing and recording about this series. It was not in my top favorite audiobooks but it was worth mentioning.

Oof

Major "my mom sold me to one direction" fanfic energy. I was hoping for at least so-bad-it's-good, but the story was flat, slow, and very creepy. I really tried, but I only made it a few hours in before I had to tap out. Not worth it. Look up reviews on goodreads instead of here if you're considering.

I love the freshness of the dialog, the emotions you can feel as you listen.

Did not care for this book

I thought that narration was fine, but the book itself was unbearable. The main character was flat and predictable and the love interest was abusive at best.
