The Vampire's Reckoning by Cynthia Cooke
3.0
It's your usual romance thing, boy meets girl...only boy is a vampire who works for an agency that deals with paranormal problems, and girl has to deal with a family demon curse.
The story reason for the instant attraction/love works quite well for me...but aspects of the characterisation and story development not as much. For all of Damien's age and struggle with blood lust that we know is supposed to be there, it's just not done well. The same for his conflict with Nicholi. The hints at the story of The Cadre, and the two folks we meet, is something that intrigued me.
But this is a great world, and I'll totally give it another whirl.
*I'm a lucky fish and got the netgalley for this read.*
