Obsession

I almost put it down right away until I realized the heroine was watching a play in the 1st chapter. Once she got going, the author introduced some elements that weren't "done so many times before". Yes the heroine is a little wishy washy, but she's also strikes a chord in being one of us, lost in the crowd, never really feeling she's part of things. The vampiress friend who could really care about Veronica while at the same time wanting David to have sex with her was different. The fact that he doesn't kill anyone is great. The ending was a little too abrupt, but was obviously meant to direct us to the next book to find out the rest of their story. Overall, a pleasant read.

This book will mesmerize any vampire romance fan. The vampire hero is from the 16th century and a cultured sensual gentelman. He mets the heroine as a 20th century playwright of vampire plays in Chicago. The heroine is a entertain reporter for a local newspaper who wants to interview the writer of the new play that captivated her. This tale uses some of the original myths associated with vampires - no reflections, need blood, sleeping in coffins during the day, hypnotic powers and adds a few more - an initiation bond with all people that are drained that makes them bonded mentally and subservient, glowing eyes during passion or deep emotion. You'll like the new stuff and the plot will make you want to read the whole book. There is also an extremely sexual female vampire acquaintance. Must read for all vampire romance fans.
