review 1: A fair bit of warning for those who are looking for a fluffy romantic read: This isn't it. If all you want to read about is tall, dark and dangerous sweeping the dude in distress off their feet to their castle in Transylvania... Nope. Don't look here.Westwood, the resident tall, dark and dangerous, is an asshole all the way to the very last word, and shows his affections for Riley only through actions. He doesn't stand around talking in paragraphs about the beauty of Riley's eyes, but shows all of it through his actions instead.Both books in the series are extremely well-crafted, and probably the best MM romance novel featuring undead anything I've read thus far. The plot is good, convoluted enough to offer surprises, and all the characters are very strong, if unlikeable.T... morehe world Bosch has crafted is also amazing. I love how creative she was with the undead. Instead of rehashing the old and used and adding only what is obviously there to make the characters more likeable (Like say, vegetarian vampires), she adds something fun to the mix. I loved reading about the rituals each undead had for its followers, and how they gained power from the mob that supported them. The characters were truly commendable as well, though it might not be everyone's cup of teeth. No nice guys here. Practically every character has some flaw, ulterior motive, or they're lying about something. Cruelty is mentioned but not callously forgiven. I love unlikeable characters when they're human, which these characters are. If you're not like me and asshole characters spoil everything for you, you might want to skip it too.In a weird way though, I wished Riley had stayed with Nick. I thought they were really sweet together, in a old married couple sort of way. And despite how it eventually ended up, I still thought Nick was really, really sweet. Ah well, forgiven for the amazing plot! Five stars for both!
