Summary

Half-vampire Catherine Crawfield is going after the undead with a vengeance, hoping that one of these deadbeats is her father - the one responsible for ruining her mother's life. Then she's captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unlikely partnership.

In exchange for help finding her father, Cat agrees to train with the sexy night stalker until her battle reflexes are as sharp as his fangs. She's amazed she doesn't end up as his dinner…are there actually good vampires? Pretty soon, Bones will have her convinced that being half-dead doesn't have to be all bad. But before she can enjoy her status as kick-ass demon hunter, Cat and Bones are pursued by a group of killers. Now Cat will have to choose a side...and Bones is turning out to be as tempting as any man with a heartbeat.

Critic reviews

“Take one half-human/half-vampire female with serious anger and parental issues, add in a sexy ancient vampire with his own agenda, and you have the makings for a truly combustible series. Sign me up for the sequel!” (Romantic Times)

Junk food for the brain

It's smutty chick-flick with vampires and violence. If you need to switch off your brain, this is a good way of doing it but you'll feel used and bloated afterwards and at some point you'll come back for more.

Loved it

Humour. A little romance that's not over the top. Vampires. a strong not moaning or helpless female lead. Excellent book. If you like Dannika Dark then you will love this. Narrator is good so easy to listen to unlike other audio books I have tried.

Good, but no that good.

The novel hooked me from the beginning due to the heroine's sarcastically witty personality and sense of dark humor. However (although this was very entertaining to listen to) the book did seem to drone on in the middle; the plot became too slow and I wanted more action. Despite this, the development of the relationship between Bones and Cat immensely entertained me and was quite sweet at parts. For a novel within the dark romance/vampire genre, this novel is unique, but at the same time it is predictable in areas. The reader knows from the outset that Cat will end up with Bones. This is not necessarily a bad thing though, as it was adorable seeing how quickly Bones became besotted with Cat, and Cat's subsequent ignorance of this, was amusing. Overall, the novel was pleasant to listen to and I will probably listen to the next one too.

Just awful English accent ruined it.

I was really looking forward to starting this series, and the story was good but I just could not stand the awful cockney accent it was so cringe worth I almost abandoned the book entirely. Will definitely wait till I have time to read a print version. Lesson learnt always listen to an excerpt!

A wild ride

This book has everything: laugh out loud moments, action, romance, great characters and a fast-moving tight plot which makes it impossible to put down. The hero alone is worth reading the story to the end and the first person narrative is strong. The heroine borders on the psychotic and I can't say I exactly like her. In places, the violence was a bit graphic for my taste too. Despite this, I must confess I can't wait to read the others in the series, so here's hoping Audible gets the rest of them.

Enjoyed revisiting.

I enjoy the Jeaniene Frost collections and this book I have already read twice in my life. It is a great read and while I listened to this I got some weird looks as I suddenly burst out laughing at the characters antics. My only down fall and this is no real fault of the book or the narrator completely. With anyone who reads a book, you have your own voices for characters and Tavia Gibert version of Bone's English accent did grate a little on my ears. As for the story of Bones and Cat, they will have you laughing and racing towards danger with them. I would recommend this book, if not the audible then give a kindle or paperback a try.
