When one of your favorite authors drops the bombshell that they are writing a Dark Vampire romance that is very taboo there is a high likelihood that I might have screamed like a school girl. Okay, who am I kidding? I definitely squealed louder than if I saw a spider(and trust me when I say I can squeal loudly when I see one of those bastages). I Have been eagerly waiting for this book. EAGERLY. There were a lot of reasons for this but the main one was because I couldn't imagine what it would be like. I knew I was safe from vampires that sparkled but more than that I was at a loss for how she would surprise me. Well, color me pink because I was tickled.

I was right that there were no sparkly vampires (just putting that out there for people who might read this thinking it will fix their Twilight fix). In typical fashion, this author created a world that I wanted to live in which in turn says something considering that I am human and my life expectancy around humans is already short enough but put me around vampires it would not be for much longer than a minute (unless they tend to like RBF and people with dark Wednesday Adams type souls). Yet, she creates it in a way that leaves no doubt that this world is very different from the human world. The attention to details was fantastic as well, down to the wardrobe choices and the way the hierarchy of a royal vampire family works. There is taboo and there is taboo. Taboo means a lot of different things to different people but usually taboo always comes in the form of an age gap. However, Age truly doesn't matter here anyway because what is a few millennia's when someone is immortal? Yet, this book is taboo (even with the age gap) but for a different reason entirely and adding in the fact that there is a BIG twist. BIG. She had me from the beginning but that twist had me losing my mind. I might have done a little dance as I was repouring my glass of wine. By might have, I totally did. #Sorrynotsorry #donotjudge. #ThisauthorismyqueenandIloveher.

Obsidian. Sweet holy titfire. I have to share with my other favorite human, the wifey, Dee and I will be working out those days to share him because he is mine when Dee isn't using him. Hell, she can use him and I can watch. #noshameinmygame. Calamity. If that isn't the most appropriate name of all time then I do not know what is. Read the story it will make more sense. All I know is that these two are hotter than an August sidewalk in Las Vegas. Even Satan's mistress is less hot in Hades then these two. I might have cursed at the end of this book. Totally did. #againsorrynotsorry. The author gave me two characters that I already want to keep forever in my heart.

I am not sure if she intends to continue to write this series. I hope she does. Although she could write me a menu from Red Lobster and I would read that because this author writes it. I knew 2019 was going to be a big year for her. This book just proves how talented her writing style is and that it is only a matter of time before she takes the world by storm and everyone knows her name. I cannot wait to see that happen and be able to say, "I knew her when." I am sure she has been a bundle of nerves going into this. She needs to put any of those thoughts out of the way because she knocked a grand slam out of the park (sorry baseball geek here). I cannot wait to see what you do next chica! You inspire me with constant perseverance, keeping your eye on the prize, and never giving up. Time to shine bright like a diamond! ( )
