I rated this book 5 stars because this book I read 20 years. Bring me back to my teenage years. Unburden by life responsibilities. Reading books from my teenage years is a tool to reflect on one own past. This book brought back these thoughts and feelings. 
The plot of the book is simple Vampire boy meets girl. One has to remember that this book was written in the 1990"s and viewpoints were different then compare to know.

As a Mexican American I am soooo happy that there is Hispanic representation in Victorian historical romance. It's quite rare.  This series I will follow through and made me seek out more books like this.

Did not finish book.
The plot drags a bit.
