Enduring Kiss
review 1: The premise for this book was interesting, but it really reads more like a young adult book. The dialogue is a little stilted and immature in places. More editing would have helped the dialogue issue as well as the multiple misspellings and incorrect word usage. A few spelling mistakes will happen, but too many pull a reader out of the story. The conflicts in the story were resolved quickly and without much depth. Not a bad story, but could have been much better.
review 2: Enduring Kiss was a very fresh and twisted look at a Vampire Romance. A young woman with a terrible life that becomes a servant for a Vampire is not one that we have visited before. Although, this was perfectly fitting for this young girl with a brutally traumatic past. She hides the evidence
... more daily when she dresses to cover the scars that mar part of her body, but with Lucas help she will learn to overcome the binding that continue to control her. With no family to turn to it is easy to see where she would find comfort in seemly strange career, but the situation offers danger free home, and a safe warm bed. Readers will come to understand and accept Jessica's life style with ease; even finding hope that she will finally find peace in her Master's home. As the story trudges on it is easy to get caught up in the brief encounters that will form our bond for Lucas and Jessica. This was a very short story, and moves at an incredibly fast pace. Regretfully, this is the part where I found an issue. Detail seems to be lacking throughout the story in effort to keep pace. Jessica was well described and laid out for readers, but most of the other characters still remained a mystery. From the start of this story, readers are aware of the three prior years of employment, but not much else. So, the abrupt shift for Jessica and Lucas was not as gratifying for the reader. Feeling the potential pouring from this book I was saddened by lack of detail for Lucas, and the building relationship between Jessica and him. I think that this could have been a story that wraps you in so tightly, but with the remaining mystery I was unable to fully grasp the characters. Please do feel that this proved a failure, because this book still offers an exceptional read. The conclusion was awesome, and it was refreshing to see Jessica in blissful happiness. With such a dark and brutal story I am excited to see her happy ending.Overall, I found this story to sharp and abrupt. It seemed as though the author was creating a longer story, but with cutting some corners that will hold back the true potential of this book. Otherwise, it I loved the characters and thrill included with this romance. C.E. Black is not afraid to test readers emotions, and I see some great talent coming through. I am aware that Enduring Kiss is the first to this series, and I will definitely be checking out book two.~BookWhisperer Reviewer JO~ less
