review 1: "Caressed by Night" is the second book in the 'Rulers of Darkness' series. In this book it picks up about 200 years after the first book left off with new characters being introduced. This is Dimitri's story as the last remaining pure blood vampire. As with Amanda's first and third book in the series, she just captivated me from the beginning with her vivid descriptions and the passion between the characters.This review is based on a complimentary copy from the author which was provided for an honest review.
review 2: Note: Contains spoilers, sorry!I started reading the 2nd book from the series. I already have the first book and will start reading it on my next break. :) Anyway... Dimitri is an ancient, extremely powerful vampire (the origin) that has lived sin
... morece the stone age. He is like the king of kings, ancient of the ancients, oldest of the oldest fangs, and his aura makes everyone look down or something. Yeah you get the idea.Kerstyn is the... "nothing" girl who just happened to be the mate of a mighty hot vampire. And yes, yes, yes, I dislike Kerstyn's character. In the whole story, I don't see Kerstyn doing anything. She simply just exists for the sake of being the character of a book. Oh yeah, wait, I forgot. She did do something... stupid. She insisted on going out of a well-guarded safety area to pick her nasty cry-and-cry friend up while her soon-to-be mate fought for her life with an enemy. I was like... huh? Seriously? You choose this time - this life-and-death situation to actually start pitying your friend when she kicked you out? Uh-uh. No way. Not smart. I'm fine with Kerstyn existing. I get irritated when she exists and but doesn't treasure her own existence. If I tell you to stay because if you go out before tomorrow comes, you die, would you have gambled your life and gone out for A) your mate or B) an idiot friend?-Sigh-Please forgive my rant. I just wished the female could have a stronger character... be more resistant to Dimitri and not just melt in his arms and accept every single thing revealed. Too good to be true even though it's just a story. It seems like Greene had this planned as "fate" could be changed and such... and the story flowed smoothly anyway, so I enjoyed it a lot. I mostly enjoy the parts with Dimitri, which unfortunately, contained mostly conversations with Kerstyn. I give this book 4/5. It is definitely worth a read. less
