review 1: 4.5 stars! I loved Sid (we got to know her in her brother's book Master of Darkness) and I liked how she fell in love with a werewolf, but vampires and werewolves can't fall in love...or can they? She and Joe broke the rules, but Sidonie erased Joe's memory of their time together and their love. So even though they worked together daily, they were only friends from Joe's perspective. Until the last book...where they found out that werewolves and vampires can bond and have little were-vamps! So Joe asks and Sid doesn't lie-she tells him everything...to a point. Joe gets mad and joins the Dark Angels-a supernatural CSI/special ops team. Very cool.He and Sid are paired up and by this point-3yrs later-he has his memories back. They try to fight it, but can't, and their love... more and desire is still there. So, even though they can physically be together now, the vampire rules don't let them. Until Sid and her fellow lady vamps start a mini rebellion against the matris and while their fate's undecided, they are allowed to live at least. But the bad guys who are experimenting on the vamps and weres are still out there...and we got some new info on them too!The only thing I was annoyed with is Tony Crowe, Sidonie's sire, had a mini story running throughout-which was fine, but with Joe and Sid flashing back between 3 yrs ago, 5 yrs ago and the present, reading about Tony Crowe from 1944 and Tony from the present. It got confusing. Susan Sizemore tends to put alot of either dream sequences or memories through out her books, but this was less informative and more confusing. I did like the storyline with Tony and Rose, and how it ties into the experiments being done...but it got to be a bit much with the time shifts. But I still loved the book, and the series :)
review 2: This book confused me. Not because it had been so long since I'd previously read this series, but because the timeline jumped around so very much that I spent too much time dazed and confused. The jumping around in time was occuring between the H/H but also - mostly, in fact - between the H/H characters from the first book. There was a major betrayal about 5 yrs ago between this book's H/H. They had been partners, best friends and ultimately lovers for a wonderful weekend. I couldn't buy the effects of the betrayal nor the actual actions the characters took. I guess I really didn't even believe in the characters' themselves. Pretty uninspiring, huh?So altho Susan Sizemore writes well, I think I'll have to file this one under "forget this series" and perhaps even "forget this author". I just don't need it when there are much better authors and storylines out there. less
