Stolen by the Vampire King by Lindsey Devin, Roxie Ray
3.0

This book is also from a dual point of view, jumping between Leia and Nic. This book starts with a prologue to catch the reader up from a different character's thoughts. Francois, the vampire in New Orleans, who I am assuming is a villain in this book. He is even might be more demented than Nicholas and seems to want the same thing. Poor Leia is trapped and scared by yet another vampire.

Omg, this is agonizing to read as we wait for him or be saved. I truly hope it happens before by the trauma at the hands of this French vampire. Oh, thank God she finally gets rescued. Wow, her captivity barely changed her mind, and this book goes from pg to rated r steamy very fast. But not all is good as we thought it would be once it is done, and now Nic must deal with a new threat.

How will he get her to give up her precious humanity? I find it interesting that the war arrives at the doorstep. We see Nic's true selfish colors as he must make a choice, and the choice is something that benefits him. This book gets scary at the end and definitely emotional. Leia is determined, fierce, but so fragile.

I think this booked really lacked the romance aspects I loved in the first book. This love story has become a lot of drama, decisions, and gruesome war. Sure there are lots of steamy scenes and love professed, but the actions are usually selfish in nature. I honestly didn't enjoy the book as much as I did the first one, but I will read the third book in this series because I want to know how this ends.
