Story
I celebrated when vampires were declared extinct. Those beasts had preyed on humanity for millennia, committing senseless, brutal murders. Like the rest of my colleagues at the Occult Bureau, I looked forward to a world where we could all sleep at night - where constant cover-up jobs were no longer required to keep the public calm and unaware. But the end of vampires wasn't the end of our problems. It was only the beginning.

Like most sane people, student Alex Webber thought he was hallucinating - perhaps he'd consumed something bad at the party he'd been attending that night, or he was severely overtired. But when he sees the mysterious man following Natalie again the very next day, he can no longer disbelieve his eyes. Although she denies the man's existence, Alex sees her walking with him down a road in his neighborhood he's never seen before - and can't help but follow.

Story
Harley Merlin can sense people's emotions, among other things. It's how she snagged her first job pinpointing cheaters at a casino. But she has no clue where she got these freakish powers because she spent her childhood jumping from home to home in the foster system, and her father left her with nothing more than a cryptic note. Then she crosses paths with a terrifyingly real monster. Which is when a mysterious and annoyingly arrogant young warlock named Wade Crowley steps in, introducing her to a hidden world of beasts, magicals, and covens riddled with secrets.

I’ve become what I feared most, allowing it in to protect those I loved. Sometimes it takes a monster to win. Sometimes to fight monsters, you have to become one. My only fear is....can I come back from it?

Summary
THE SERIES WITH OVER A MILLION BOOKS SOLD
Welcome back to The Shade...
"Of course you know who I am. I'm a daughter of the darkness just as surely as you are his son..."
Ever since his brief encounter with Emilia at The Shade, Derek's thoughts and dreams have been haunted with images of the mysterious, beautiful brunette. Plagued with guilt, he struggles to understand why he is so drawn to this dark stranger from his past.
When Emilia suddenly appears again on the island, Derek is both terrified and intrigued. But this time, he is determined to involve Sofia and discover who this woman is.
If only Derek and Sofia knew, Emilia is a mystery that should be left undiscovered...
"Once you have the book in your possession, you need to come up with an excuse to lock yourself away, take supplies with you. Be prepared to lose a few hours. And most importantly a huge DO-NOT DISTURB sign..." (Purpinkroses Book Corner)
"This is one of the most emotional books I have ever read by this author. There was so much going on that you couldn't stop to do anything but flip the page!" (Paranormal Book Fairy)

My favorite in the series
This is my favorite Audio in the series so far. It answers a lot of questions that I’ve had. We learn of the elder and where the vampires originate from. Now that Ben is no longer in the equation as part of the love triangle, the beautiful Emilia is introduced. She is not a character to bring more drama to the story but a critical part to the whole picture. Emilia intrigues Derrick to the point of distraction. She test the conviction of his love for Sofia and the very strength of their bond.

**Spoilers ahead**
I borrowed this book from KU plus bought the audio so I've alternated reading and listening. this is a good series. I started it back when they first came out. seemed I'd see it and it never had many reviews but I finally tried it and loved it. so glad to see it get so popular. I'm just aggravated how there's so much repetition and characters seems to act really passionate one minute , should I kill her or not, to I love you. and to their own daughter. I understand some of this but it wasn't really believable. and vampires or anyone aren't going to be like let's give her another chance . she's only tried to kill us 10 times. and so many things contradicted each other throughout the books. All the extra drivel could be left out. and dont change a person's personality over night. its not believable. Sofia is a dumbass. so tired of her wishy washy. I am sorry for ranting. and yeah they books keep reading.
The narration was good. I appreciate having so many narrators. but Sofia doesn't sound like I thought she would. I knew she was young but dang. it was annoying. the narrator was ok but not for her. the guy who did Derek was super sexy. loved his voice.

Repetitive
I enjoy this series, but the retelling of previous book plots in this story made this book redundant and less interesting. I hope there is not more of the same coming up next. If someone likes this series why can't one assume they remember the plot and what has already happened and not be driven to repeat it with each subsequent book.

A Blaze of Cospiracy
Would you try another book from Bella Forrest and/or the narrators?
Yes, because the story is getting interesting, with new facts and a lot of conspiracy... Although in my opinion, the story is too slow, and could be told on book four.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
Curiostiy.
What would have made this romance irresistible?
Less books. The story doesn't need so many books to be told. I think the story of all this five books could be resumed to three.
