I‘ve read this before but I adore Jeaniene Frost and I wanted to read something familiar and easy.
Book 6

blurb

I need to vent about one of my peeves that appears in this book. I‘m a military brat, a veteran, and a mil wife. Dear writers, lieutenant colonels are not what you think they are. It‘s a higher mid-grade rank, more selective than major, but there are still a ton of them. It‘s a command position for some but not all, and it‘s not a Pentagon-level power thing. Air Force is different than Army, and AF is what I know, but still (cont)

ravenlee Specific to this book, a medically retired lt col (so he didn‘t serve a full 20 years) is unlikely to have sway at the Pentagon and a network of contacts spanning the globe. Lt cols at the Pentagon are some of the lower-ranking peons. They‘re aides and such. The power you‘re claiming is colonel and general stuff. Thank you, and have a nice day. 4y
LiteraryinPA Oh no! How annoying when authors don‘t getting something right that they could just ask someone about. 4y

sprainedbrain Seems like some authors could do just a bit more research! 4y
ravenlee @LiteraryinLititz @sprainedbrain I think this is one of those rolling errors, where it gets so common that authors get kinda lazy and just perpetuate it. Like, Lt Col sounds important so it must be important, and in that book I read that time the Lt Col was important...so I‘m gonna go with that for my book! As military errors go there are FAR worse (don‘t get me started), but it really grates on my nerves. 4y
Hooked_on_books Yeah, this kind of thing bothers me, too, since a tiny bit of research would make it clear that they‘d gotten it all wrong. So they didn‘t even try to be accurate. When my dad was promoted to lt col many moons ago, my sister started calling him LC. 😆 4y

Third finish for #nutsinMay and 6/20 for #bookspinbonanza - not sure if I‘ll get all 20 but I should get more than halfway. This also got me two more bingos on my social distancing reading bingo, as the antihero space - only four spaces to go for a blackout!

An interesting take on Vlad Dracul with a heroine who conducts high voltage and has psychic abilities. First in Night Prince series but unfortunately the Night Huntress series comes first👇🏻

ravenlee so I have some backtracking to do, and then read the remaining three in the Vlad/Leila story arc. 4y
Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏 4y

Im trying to hit 400 books on Goodreads and so have been hitting the audio books hard this month. I have to say this one's sexy parts made me blush😳😳😳, this lady can write🙈. Thank goodness my coworkers couldn't hear what I was listening to. Id be down in HR for sure.😂😂😂

Yesterday I had a little time to myself. My rehearsal ended early and I needed to get lunch before heading home. I may have tripped and fallen into BN on the way to lunch and ended up with this #bookhaul. Well Met was so fun I needed my own copy, and Jeaniene Frost comes recommended by Ilona Andrews, who have never led me astray before. Not sure when I‘ll get to them...

Crazeedi You should watch where you're walking! Hope it didnt "hurt" too much falling in BN, ?❤ 5y

I still prefer werewolves to vampires, but this book had an interesting premise. The original Vlad falls for a contemporary woman with some psychic and defensive powers she got from a downed power line accident. Together they fight a common enemy.

Listening while crocheting and lord I keep getting distracted with the story and messed up the pattern.. lol I have a new series to love

I need a change of genre so some paranormal romance it is.. I don‘t read or listen often but any audio book I have listened to lately hasn‘t caught my attention.. so maybe something different will help.

It feels like it‘s been forever since I fell in love with a vampire story. This was everything I wasn‘t from my paranormal romance- a twist on familiar tropes, a strong female MC, a sexy male MC, a bit of romance and lots of action. This book checked all the boxes and the narrator was perfection. On to book 2! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Literary_Siren Have you read her Night Huntress series? It‘s the best! 6y
Owlizabeth @Literary_Siren I read it years ago, I might have to revisit since this was so good! 6y

Oh crap, I started a new audiobook before bed and now I have no desire to go to sleep now. Yay vampire action (in and out of the bedroom 😉), an interesting female MC and an excellent narrator. #PNR #romantsy

My pretty Elsa nails!! I'm rereading Frost's Once Burned Dracula series on audio (because Tavia Gilbert is a goddess) so I thought having Ice Nails was a bit funny 😁 Working on my Xmas Cross Stitch Swap box today as my original plan went horribly wrong! 😁🙄

Bookishgal71 What is a Christmas cross stitch swap?? I love cross stitch! 6y
theresidentromantic @Bookishgal71 I love the unexpected cross stitch love on this site!! @vkois88 is running a swap for Cross Stitch Xmas ornaments and things. Sign ups were in Oct, but I'm sure if this goes well, we might run another! 6y
vkois88 @Bookishgal71 @theresidentromantic yes!! If it's a big hit and everything goes smoothly in terms of shipping and receiving, I will most likely do more Cross Stitch Swaps 😊😊 6y

Mehso-so

Has your reading mood ever drastically shifted in a matter of hours? It happened to me with this book (and, tbh, has been happening more lately. I blame politics and work stress). I devoured the first half and was totally onboard with all of the vampy, PNR tropes that I used to love but then I had to stop reading to go to work and by the evening when I picked it back up my eyes could not stop rolling. Then I skimmed the rest of the series. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Yep, been there! And yes, I enjoyed the Night Huntress series and spin off‘s, but the Vlad series just didn‘t meet my expectations for whatever the reason. Fingers crossed for the new Ian book. (edited) 6y
nitalibrarian This series didn't hold my attention either. But I love Ian and I have his book checked out to read soon. I have my fingers crossed too. 6y

I still need to read the last book in the series about Vlad (don't call him Dracula) and his mortal girlfriend who has powers of her own. I tried Frost's other series and couldn't get it into it. Had no such issues with these books- I devour them in one sitting. #Transylvania #melodicmay

LeahBergen He looks a little Poldark-ish! 7y
Moonpa This series is awesome! I need to read the last one too! 7y
Jas16 @LeahBergen You are so right! I never noticed before. 7y

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Loved this book! My only complaint is that there should have been a warning at the beginning of the book advising that this book contained spoilers about another of Frost's series! I learned things about Kat (Night Huntress) that I hadn't read yet in her series! #litsyatoz

This book was really interesting to read. I love how dark Vlad was, but I knew from the beginning of that he developed and undefying love for her.
