A new inheritance, an alchemist, a vampire, and the complicated history between them all. When Marisa Marrero discovers her estranged grandmother left her a home in New Orleans after her death she thinks its the perfect chance for her to get a new start. Little does she know she’s going to be in far over her head. There she discovers she is given the role of Caretaker, a person in charge of offering her home as a hostel to creatures, yes creatures. She then finds herself in a twisted game of tug a war between two ex lovers, Jack st. Germaine an alchemist and Elisabeth Clavier a vampire. Jack and Elisabeth have a long and complicated history, starting with love to betrayal to now rivals and enemies and they both want Marisa for their own ends. Now she will have to figure out who she can trust and who she wants between Jack and Elisabeth and if she is truly meant for this new role. Unfortunately for me this one was a miss, I truly did not like Jack at all. In fact, I would have rather Elisabeth and Marisa gotten together but alas we can’t have it all. I liked Elisabeth, I liked how after everything she endured she survived, she lived and only to find the lover who promised her that he would search for her, that he would love her and wait for her has bathed himself in luxury, women, and power... I’d be angry too. Overall it was okay, but it wasn’t the best work that this author has done.
