Spinning off from her wildly successful, New York Times bestselling Night Huntress novels featuring vampire soulmates Cat and Bones, Jeaniene Frost kicks off the thrilling new Night Prince series with Once Burned. Vlad Tepesh, the ruthless master vampire and inspiration for Bram Stoker’s dark legend (but don’t dare call him Dracula) encounters a mortal woman with unimaginable power… including the … the ability to enflame his cold heart. Paranormal romance and urban fantasy fans who hunger for the novels of Kim Harrison, Christine Feehan, and Charlaine Harris are going to love The Night Prince and this dark and steamy tale of supernatural attraction.

This series is in the same world as the Night Huntress series. You can read the Night Prince series without reading the other, but I highly recommend reading Night Huntress first. Many previous characters come to visit Vlad and you can understand their relationships more if you have had the pleasure of reading the other first, but Night Prince can …
I loved this book! This was a re-read for me but I remembered much less about the book than I would have expected. Usually, once I start a reread, the story comes back to me but that wasn’t the case this time. I probably read the book so quickly the first time that it just didn’t stay in my memory. Or I am going senile. It could really go …
This was a really fun story. It has humor and vampires, Dracula and a great leading lady. I would definitely read more in the series. I do think this would be a fun beach read because the story doesn’t take itself too seriously and there is a great balance of action, sassy, humor and lore; and for me that is the perfect vacation read. Oh and it is …
Once Burned is the first book in the Night Prince series and this was just a great way to start off a new series. This series features Vlad and who you previously met in the Night Huntress series. I just so excited that he know has his own series and I just loved reading this book and getting to meet some new characters. This book was just so easy …
Loved it…I love the whole series!
So this was a re-read and I enjoyed it just as much the second time over.
This book holds a place in my heart as one of my all-time fave vampire reads.
I adored the idea that here we are dealing with the Vlad of legend, the most famous vampire Bram Stokes inspiration for Dracula himself.
His Pyrokinesis abilities, the old style way he spoke and …
Oh my…where to start reviewing this one.
Jeaniene Frost isn’t the first author to bring Vlad Tepes (aka Vlad the Impaler, aka Dracula) into a series, but this is one of my favorite incarnations of Vlad. (I’ll come back to that.) Vlad appears in Frost’s earlier series, the Night Huntress novels featuring vamp hunters Cat Crawfield and Bones, her …
It’s fine; not quite as engaging as some of Frost’s work, but if you’re a fan you’ll probably like this as well. Vlad is a controlling ass who gets his comeuppance when he falls in love. I’m a bit tired of brutal, controlling characters who get away with it because they’re loyal, powerful and rich.
I thought that I was done with the romance/paranormal genre as I got older and my tastes seemed to change, but I needed something different from what I was currently reading, I saw a book slump coming on.. so I got the audio book from lu library.. then I got the second one from my library and the next day I just needed the physical copies. so I …
Oh, where to begin. I absolutely LOVED this book! I am already a big nerdy fan of everything else that I have read by Jeaniene Frost and Vlad happens to be one of my favorite characters from the Night Huntress Series. I was RIDONKULOUSLY excited to find out that he was getting his own series!
The first thing that I want to make note of is …
A great series, and worth the read.
Official book description: After a tragic accident scarred her body and destroyed her dreams, Leila never imagined that the worst was still to come: terrifying powers that let her channel electricity and learn a person’s darkest secrets through a single touch. Leila is doomed to a life of solitude…until …
Great retelling of Dracula!
4.5 stars! Holy awesome Batman. Fantastic read! This was an exciting and detailed world with extremely intriguing characters. I was hooked from the start and on the edge of my seat!
Once Burned, the first book in the Night Prince series, was WOW……. Dayum Vlad is so yummy! I have loved Vlad since the first time I read about him in the night huntress series. I can’t tell you how happy I was when I found out that my favorite fire starter was getting his own series. I will say there was a ton of embarrassing dancing.
When …
I am obsessed with the historical Vlad the Impaler. So, I was very curious about the novel series. Let me tell you one thing: the cover does not, in any way, bring justice to the story. I was hooked from the very first sentence.
Jeaniene Frost is now one of my favorite authors and halfway through Once Burned, I bought the rest of the series.
Vlad, Vlad, Vlad! Love the spinoffs of The Night Huntress, where we get to learn more about her tragic male best friend, the OG vampire, Vlad Tepesh (don’t call him Dracula if you want to live). Book 1 of 4 in his chronicles of meeting, loving and fighting for Kira.
I love this book and Leila and Vlad’s start of their story. Vlad is a character from the Night Huntress series that I have always loved. Jeaniene Frost did not disappoint with Vlad’s story. The story is complex and the new characters are complex and intriguing. Leila is a perfect match for Vlad, she doesn’t back down even though Vlad is a …
The whole series is awesome read
Well developed characters, good plot and well written. Easy and enjoyable to read!
