What VampBards talking about:
Ms. Barry has provided a very strong heroine with Cam!  I enjoyed watching Cam put Mercer in his place at every turn.  I’m evil that way, and a sucker for a strong female character.  I really liked watching the two come together, as well.  It was well-crafted and thoughtful writing for the sci fi genre.  Love scenes, eagerly awaited, were tender and integral to the plot.  I didn’t find any fluff, no unnecessary side stories, or anything else that deterred from the main plot arc.  Loved to hate the baddie, Harding… but couldn’t take focus off the Cam/Mercer storyline long enough to delve into that one further.
VampBards Rating:

Enjoyed – strongly recommend (A-)
