I have been waiting for Wraith's book since the beginning and I had a hard time not skipping to his book! When a bad boy hero can get under your skin within the first few chapters of the first book in a series, it is hard not to want to read about his story right away. This was definitely worth the wait!

When Wraith becomes infected with a demon virus with no cure, he doesn't have much time to seek out the only option he has left. He must find a charm that will protect him from the disease. One problem he doesn't expect is finding it securely around the next of an irresistible female who happens to be human as well. Wraith has never craved human women for sexual pleasure or food. Now that he has met Serena, he has fallen under her charm though. He craves her and doesn't want anyone else to come near her. As his feelings grow for Serena, he must decide to if he really wants to take the charm -- and doom her to death -- or if he will sacrifice himself for the love of a human female.

Up until this book, Wraith has always been the bad boy vamp/demon that you grow to love. He is irresponsible, deadly at fighting, and all around bad as they get. He instantly captures your interest and demands your attention when he appears on the pages. I loved Wraith in this book because not only did we get his usual personality, but we also got to see a tender and protective side of him as well. He has to fight his natural instincts and decide who is of greater importance -- Serena or himself. This book again takes your heart on an emotional roller coaster not knowing what exactly is going to happen. The author likes to tug at your heart strings until the very last possible moment. Again another great book in the Demonica Series that is quickly becoming one of my favorite series ever!
