Twice Tempted by Jeaniene Frost
4.0
I ravished this book in the dark of the night (whenever i say that i think of Rasputin singing. Not sure why. Most likely has to do with my obsession with Anastasia as a child)
I started reading Twice Tempted in the wee hours of the morning (midnight) and read so fast and hard that i finished it just short of 4 am. Why you ask would i put myself through such headache rendering and wavering exhaustion?
Well, i was unable to stop. Literally. I would keep checking the clock and say "oh no its 2, i have go to stop and go to sleep, I have lots of work tomorrow blah blah blah" but my eyes would go back to the book and keep on reading.
Leila and Vlad hold this book together. I did find that their relationship moves incredibly fast i mean seriously. Take a break people! At the rate things are going I have no idea what to expect in the next book; children? Vlad keeps being homo annoying in the manner of trying to protect Leila waaay to much, especially considering that Leila is really very badass. She quickly becomes used to Vlad's cruelty and even embraces it. How cool is that?
It is fun to see a heroine accept the male lead's Draculaness and even participate in some dungeon tortures. Finally no wimpy please change if you love me heroine. No Leila is like " What you are torturing people? Wait let me just us my electricity to help you there"
Basically I greatly enjoyed finding out more about Frost's world. The characters continue to develop and although some things appear quite fast and not really thought out, it was really fun.
PS. Again- the cover? Why? Its just. no.
And just because I cannot stop thinking about it:
