Waking a monster from its sleep is never a good idea.
Skye Carter is as normal as normal can be. But when she chances upon a man in
the basement of an abandoned Hollywood Hills house, she’s suddenly playing tour
guide, and introducing a fifteen-hundred-year-old vampire to this century. And
who even knows what’s going on with her teeth.
The truth is, immortality can get old—which is why Lucas Thorne went to sleep
for seventy years. But he’s back and ready to take on undead enemies and
friends alike. In a world where threatening creatures roam the night streets,
he’s the most dangerous of them all.
My Review: Is there anything that Kylie can't write?!
Seriously, every single book has grabbed me and leaves high expectations for my next read. A romance expert indeed. Kylie will always be one of my absolute favorites.
Skye is off on an errand for her boss. Check out the condition of the mansion. Simple enough right? Crumbling walls, overgrown grass or really anything would have made more sense than finding a vampire. In the very basement she wasn’t to enter, too bad no one warned her about not going down there.
Lucas just woke from quite the long nap. You can also tell his age by the way he talks about people he knows, like historical people. He essentially wakes up in a whole new world and must learn and adjust to the current day. Which is just a hoot to read about plus you add the sass from Skye and you will not have a moment of boredom.
Put that aside and Lucas is smart, kind, HOT and everything we want in our male characters.
It’s just too bad there wasn’t a vampire in my own basement.
I suppose I’ll just have to wait for the new guy Kylie creates to swoon over. Hopefully it’ll wont be too long a wait.
