Antonio: Vampires in Europe by D.B. Reynolds

3.0

Antonio was a book I was so excited to be offered for a honest review from the publisher/author. I have adored this author's work, but her Vampirs in America series is by far my favorite from her. These are delivered so well and I love how atmospheric that they actually are. I really enjoyed the way in which this author showcased this story. I couldn't seem to get enough of this one but it was by far from perfect of a read. I really REALLY struggled getting into this story. I am not sure if it was me, or the book itself, but I just couldn't get fully engaged with the story so this is going to be reflected in my rating.

I did enjoy many aspects of this story overall though. I really liked the heroine being a badass assassin and being able to really push the hero's buttons. The hero is an alpha in his own right, and I love how they keep each other on their toes and really push in all the right ways. I adored the manner in which they come together. Now the story starts out slow, our couple don't really meet for a while in the story, so make sure you are aware that will happen. I was hoping for a bit more couple time, I felt like this pairing just didn't get enough page time and wish there was more couple page time in this one because it felt a bit lackluster in that respect. I do prefer more couple time on the page. It was just fun seeing them together and didn't want to have it end. I did feel like the ending was a bit rushed a bit.

Overall I found myself charmed by Antonio, it was an endearing kick ass romance that kept me on the edge of my seat and thrilled me from head to toe. If you are a fan of this author, you will have a blast with the latest addition.
