Hunting Prince Dracula is the second book in the series, and absolutely did not disappoint!

Audrey Rose and Thomas are in Romania to study forensics at the Academy of Forensic Medicine and Science.

Bizarre murders occur… hinting to the notorious Romanian killer, Vlad the Impaler (better known as Dracula).

Are these victims killed by a copy cat? Or has the legendary Dracula returned?

This story was amazing! Love the way the author describes everything, the secrets, implements Romanian folklore, the characters (and their development) and the way the relationship between Audrey Rose & Thomas is starting to blossom.

One thing I know for certain, I won’t make a very good detective… I had ideas, but the author threw me off (again).

All the issues I had with book 1 were much better this go around! The tension was awesome and I actually loved this mystery more! It did get a little slow sometimes and I felt like some scenes could’ve been shorter, but overall, a really awesome sequel!

If you didn’t love the first but are debating carrying on with the series, I highly recommend. This sequel was so much more mysterious and well written.

This sequel to Stalking Jack the Ripper continues the first book’s major strengths. The romance is equally playful and thoughtful. And the mystery is creepy and grotesque. Lots of atmosphere found at Dracula’s castle.

It was a bit slow up until the last chapters, I liked it still. The cultural elements and folklore were really interesting if not a bit overwhelming at first. The first one remains my favorite but Thomas and Audrey Rose’s relationship grows so much in this book. There too many swoon worthy moments.
