I Hunger for You

Colin Foxe is a young Prime from the Clan Reynald - yes, he's the cousin of the hero from the first book. As a SWAT team leader, he has been thrown into real dangerous situations and has always come on top. Yet for all his strength and preternatural skills, there is one thing that he finds himself useless at - staying away from the beautiful Mia Luchese. After being rescued by the hunky SWAT leader, Mia Luchese embarked on an affair with him that lasted for three months. When he left, she never thought she'd see him again. Until the night a vampire attacked her. Thrown back together by fate, Colin and Mia realize that the initial spark from six months ago has never died. But as they fight together to find those who hunted Mia, it is not only their feelings, which they must deal with, but also their real identity. Can love prove strong enough to overcome the ancient battle that threatens to tear them apart? Well I must say that I'm in the minority here. I actually preferred this to the second book. I liked the humor injected to the story, and enjoyed the participation of the characters from the first book. I felt the spark between Colin and Mia and the chemistry was undeniable. Sure, Colin's initial disdain about bonding with a human was irritating and made me feel like smacking him, but cut him some slack! He is a young Prime, and even his clan thought it was astounding that he already found his bond mate at such an early age. But why is it hard to accept the fact that fate, or whatever the vampires might like to call it, has decided to send him his partner early? I say good for him to find his true happiness right now rather than waiting two hundred years or so. I must say though that I was disappointed that Marcus Cage wasn't included considering he was once the "lab rat" of the villains here. But overall, I thought this was a fun book. It's not exactly the best vampire book I have read, but it was entertaining enough.

Like the other reviewers, I liked the first 2 books better. However, I still thoroughly enjoyed reading Colin's story. I am also looking forward to the next book that involves a different "family" of vampires. It should be interesting to say the least. This is a good read, but I didn't have any trouble putting it down, unlike the other two.

Ms. Sizemore's latest book is great. I loved her time travels and her historical romances, but I think her new books are even better, and I'm not even into vampires. She made the whole world seem believable, erotic, and excited. I'll definitely buy the next one.

Colin Foxe is a prime we met in a previous book, I found him to be just as hunky this time around.. The only thing I didn't like was his fixation with bonding with a vampire female. If bonding is the greatest thing that can happen to a Prime, as long as she is his match and mate, I found him to be stuck on himself. Obviously his opinion of mortals is abit biased. The fact that he could go with a different female every night after leaving Mia, just made him a hound in my opinion. I think one of the other reviewers said he acted like he was 12 years old, and I agree strongly. I kept wishing Mia would tell him to go soak his head. Mia is a mortal whose family have been vampire hunters for many generations. However, she doesn't believe in vamps and knows nothing about fighting them. After finding out Colin in a vamp she contacts her great-grandfather to find out more about them and how to fight them. Wouldn't you know her grandpa is the Patron, the very man the Clans are hunting. The manticore tribe is after him as well. It was very interesting to find out all the diffenences between the Clan, Tribes, and Purists. When Colin and Mia are forced to bond because she bit him, (it's OK if he bites her during mating, but she wasn't supposed to bite him). I say more power to her. So against his will, (he still thinks he may be able to get rid of her and bond with a real Vampire Chick) they are bonded by the matri of his clan. Then the tribe contacts the clan to demand Mia because her grandpa stole their money. Mia agrees to help them get their money if they will not kill her grandpa. So Colin, Mia and Laurent fly to grandpa's. Laurent pretending to be a captured vamp. Needless to say Laurent's Tribe can't be trusted, and the ensueing mess finally comes to a conclusion. Only after Mia is almost killed while being tortured by the leader of Laurent's tribe does Colin admit he loves her. I just wanted to smack him up side the head all through the book. This was a short book. The type is very large to get in the number of pages needed. However, with someone as slow on the uptake, and determined to gain power when he bonded, I was just as ready to see the end of the book. I still feel someone should have knocked some sense into Colin. I look forward to her next book, from the short start at the end of this book. I think Laurent is a very interesting new character.

Los Angeles SWAT leader Colin Foxe gets ready to lead his team on an assault to free hostages when he receives a mental message that one of the victims is angry. He telepathically tells her to stay calm; she replies that she is. As his team charges into the room, freelance writer Mia "Karate Kid" Luchese has already overcome the criminals. Colin and Mia argue over safety. Six months later, Colin, a Prime of Clan Reynard vampire, thirsts for Mia and even follows her at night. This evening he intercedes when the rival Tribe vampire attacks her. Afterward, he admits he is a vampire and she confesses that she comes from a long line of vampire hunters. As they fall in love, they must overcome their respective heritages and a deadly threat from the brazen Tribe vampire colony. Susan Sizemore will make readers believe that colonies of vampires thrive amongst us mortals with her delightful supernatural romance I HUNGER FOR YOU. The relationship between Colin and Mia is wonderful to follow as the alpha vampiric male struggles with his feelings for the independent mortal female. There ancestry adds a Romeo and Juliet twist to the mix. Vampire romance readers will hunger for more works like this one and the previous thrillers like I THIRST FOR YOU and I BURN FOR YOU from Ms. Sizemore. Harriet Klausner
