I really enjoyed the first book, Caressed by Moonlight, and this book was just as good. I liked Dorian from book 1 and i'm not going to lie- I wanted this book to be about him too. I pouted for a good 10-15 pages when I was first reading about Dimitri. But then I started to get into his story and I started liking him, a lot.

Dimitri is constantly waging an inner battle. I felt so bad for him, he could never just let go and be in the moment. Kerstyn was really good for him. She tried to help him let go. I liked that balance between the two of them. They had a good dynamic and it was really easy for me to root for the two of them. I will say this- Kerstyn sure is trusting. To the point of being a little too trusting. I also didn't really like that this was her very first boyfriend ever. It made it seem like she was holding on at times just because there was no one else, because she hadn't experienced this before. Now, that is not to say that I don't like the two of them as a couple. I do, I think they work really well together, I just almost wish that Kerstyn had a little bit more of a backstory. I'm not even sure why, I just kept thinking that while I was reading.

I loved that Dimitri had a few secrets up his sleeve and as the story went on you could see layer after layer being peeled back. I loved learning his secrets. I especially loved the history on how vampires came about. I thought that was an awesome story!

All in all, this is a really good book. It picks up almost 200 years after the first book left off, and even though I didn't want it to be about a different character at first, I ended up really enjoying Dimitri's story. I became very attached to him and I think I might even like him more than Dorian now. Great series.
