Fantastic! A terrific start to a new series.
The concept is compelling, and entertaining. There were already so many positive reviews, so I knew I had to give the author a chance. Being that this is my first time reading Teresa Gabelman, I found that I was deeply satisfied with the strength of her writing. Her characters are strong, inspiring, and each is very well rounded. Readers will find themselves riveted from the start from the innovative new approach she takes to depicting vampires. Gone are vampires that turn into bats with dark widow-peaks, capes, and instead, are hot, muscular, fighting vamps with purpose.
Damon DeMasters is a vampire warrior who has taken an oath to not only protect his own kind, but humans as well. Crimson Rush is the new drug and it’s their duty to find who is behind the selling of vampire blood and stop it.
As a social worker, Nicole Callahan fights for the right of every child placed in her care. There’s a war now as vampires have stepped out into the spotlight taking their place in society and the children are at the heart of it all.
Damon and his fellow warriors have been ordered by the Vampire Council to train Nicole and her colleagues against the dangers they now face in their new world. Even as sparks fly and tensions mount, Nicole and Damon depend on each other to protect the children of both races.
