These books are a spin off from the\u00a0<em>Night Huntress<\/em>\u00a0series, which is one of my all-time favourite PNRs. Vlad is THE Vlad \u2013 the legend that became Dracula, and this book continues on from\u00a0<a title=\"Once Burned (Night Prince, #1) by Jeaniene Frost\" href=\"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/?p=9909\" target=\"_blank\">Once Burned<\/a>. It\u2019s been a while since I\u2019ve read the first book, and I enjoyed a reread before diving into this one and I\u2019m so glad I did because I\u2019d forgotten so many of the details, and I think I would have been a bit lost otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Vlad and Leila are back, but there\u2019s trouble in paradise. After their hot and fiery introduction, they developed a deep connection and became lovers, but Leila has completely fallen for the arrogant, sexy and dangerous vampire even though he told her he\u2019d never be able to return her feelings. Distraught that she can\u2019t have Vlad the way she wants him, she is also struggling to reconcile the Vlad that is her lover with the brutally ruthless \u2018Vlad the Impaler\u2019 that is still very much a part of him, as well as dealing with an over-protective Vlad and the loss of her psychic abilities and what that means for her and her relationship. Phew, it\u2019s all happening!<\/p>\n<p>I really like Leila. She\u2019s strong, stubborn and brave, and feisty as all hell, and she\u2019s a great match for someone like Vlad. And I love that she\u2019s prepared to walk away from the man she loves in order to protect her heart and her self-respect. But when she is struck by tragedy yet again, she discovers that her life is in danger from a mysterious bad guy and she is left wondering who she can trust . Of course, Vlad dives in to the rescue once again, and this time he is not prepared to let her go.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cYou should be afraid. Very afraid. Before, I told you if you wanted to end things between us, I would let you go, but, Leila\u201d &#8211; his voice deepened &#8211; \u201cI lied.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I love reading about an arrogant alpha meeting the love of his life, and after hundreds of years, Vlad has finally fallen for his, and Vlad in love is a wonderful thing to see.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI love you, Leila, nothing else matters.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course he is ridiculously possessive and protective, but Leila is also a force to be reckoned with and I love that she has the strength to stand up to him. Their clashes are sensational! And with Vlad finally offering Leila everything that she\u2019s wanted, there\u2019s a nice amount of romance, and a whole lot of sexy time!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>He\u2019d wanted all of me and that\u2019s what I\u2019d given him. Did that mean I had nothing left?<br \/>\n\u201cNo,\u201d he muttered, voice thick with passion. \u201cYou have me, and I love you.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Leila and Vlad now have to work together to discover who is betraying them to their enemy, while working to uncover a mystery and fighting to keep Leila alive. It\u2019s an exciting ride, and I loved every moment of it!<\/p>\n<p>There are some huge game changers in this book, and I was shocked and excited with every twist and revelation. The action is fantastic, the mystery kept me guessing, and the humour and romance blend brilliantly with the story as it all unfolds. And through it all, Vlad\u2019s arrogance never waivers, and never ceases to make me laugh.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cYou can\u2019t expect my blessing on this disastrous mistake.\u201d<br \/>\nThe words were directed at me, but Vlad responded.<br \/>\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t insult you by asking. We both know you disapprove and we both know that I don\u2019t care. Leila\u2019s opinion is the only one that matters and she said yes.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is a great continuation of Vlad and Leila\u2019s story. It ends on a bit of a cliffy, and I\u2019m excited to continue on with the next book.<\/p>\n<p>I loved it \u2013 4 stars.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>The Night Prince series<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>These books are a spin from the Night Huntress series.\u00a0 This series is one, continuous story and obviously these books need to be read in order, but they fit in after book #6.5 of the Night Huntress series (with the first two books taking place before book #7).<\/p>\n<h4><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"9828\"
