This story.was so original and creative. Valerian and Ecaterina were amazing characters that just draw you in and you just want more. The irony of a bat shifter and a Vampyr intrigued me after reading the story I was shocked to find that something I thought was true about Vampyrs was not. Can’t wait to see what comes next.
This was the first book I’ve read by this author and I loved it! Ecaterina is my favorite type of heroine, strong and sassy, and she’s a bat shifter which is a first for me. Valerian is a Vampyr Prince who is being forced to give up his playboy ways and marry. The world the author created with bat shifters and vampyr royalty and the history behind it is so unique. Ecaterina rebelled against her upbringing and tradition and ran away from home to become a successful bounty hunter and has made a name for herself by always getting the job done. Valerian wants to be a better man, but has no idea where to start, just knows that his arranged marriage would be a disaster, so he flees on his wedding day. When hired to track down the runaway groom, Ecaterina has no idea where that adventure will lead her. Valerian can help but be attracted to the pint-sized spitfire who captures him, and his attraction to her leads to them making an unconventional bargain. But when one of the bad guys Ecaterina took down escapes prison with vengeance on his mind, their partnership takes a dangerous turn and makes them both realize that they can’t live without each other. Characters you will love, romance that sizzles, and action that keeps the story interesting all combine for an amazing story that you won’t be able to put down. I can’t wait to read about the other Lazar sisters in future books!
A communication breakdown
The start of a new beginning and this author’s debut into the PDA is a journey into an entirely new society with an amazing new version of shifter. I love the characters! The sassiness of the little bat, and the way her vampyr listens with his heart and is willing to leave it all behind for her make me want to swoon. The author kept the story moving with the danger these two face along the way to their HEA. I enjoyed this book from the first page to the last and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
