She was a doctor and he was involved in an attack that ended up with him in the E.R. and the rest is history. This is steamy read so be prepared to have your glasses fog up as you read.

Her Vampire Hero
This is the first story I have read by this author. Lou and Katarina’s story is the fourth book in the “Midnight Doms” series which is a spin-off the “Bad Boy Alpha” series. This fact is what lead me to read a new author. I figured Ms. Martin must be really good or Ms. Rose and Ms. Savino wouldn’t have invited her to play in their “world”. Guess what? I was right!

I am loving this series. The world they live in is solid and lasting. I’ve gotten to know the characters and feel like their friends. Nicolina Martin approaches this story in a unique way with a unique storyline and lovable characters. I enjoyed getting to know the new characters as well as discovering more about the older cast of vampires. Treat yourself to a little vampire adventure. You won’t be sorry.
This is a well written book with strong,well developed characters in Kate,a human and Lou , a very old vampire. The author does a great job building their story and pulls you in with the sexual tension and hot chemistry as well as the danger and mystery throughout. She does a beautiful job bringing out the emotions and painting her scenes in vivid detail. The story moves quickly and smoothly and had me hooked from start to finish reading. I loved and would recommend this book.

*First time reading author
Nicolina Martin brings an ancient vampire to life in this romance. Lou comes to town and is in the fight of his life when he “dies” and finds himself at the ER. When Kat goes to save him, Lou jumps out the window and runs.
Kat can’t let this go and finds out that the life of a vampire is real, but it may take her human life away from her. Is Kat willing to give her life away to stay with Lou? Does Lou want Kat to make that sacrifice?
I loved Lou and Kat! This was such a great read. A compelling, emotional story line quickly ensnares you in its web and has you quite content to be there. I felt that this book was a perfect blend of steamy and heart tugging. As the story line unfolds and this couple’s relationship evolves there is plenty of deep emotions, tension, drama and desire. A really wonderful book and an excellent addition to this addictive series.
Really enjoyed it! The characters were great and the story was enjoyable. Sometimes the heroine did annoy me but not enough to ruin the story. I love me some hot vampires though!
So I liked this author’s point of view on the vampires in this world. I read the original book thay started this spin off series and I liked how the characters from that story are protrayed by this author. I always love seeing characters in the same universe again.
I liked Lou. He wasn’t like I normally see in vampires. But he was definitely still alpha and yummy as well. He just couldn’t get Kate out of his head and she couldn’t get him out of hers either. He was kinda obsessed with Kate and her being and staying human. But Kate knew what she wanted and she went after it.
I also liked how even tho it wasn’t a hugely long book it still had plenty of story and isn’t over too quickly. And you don’t miss out of all the yummy stuff that also goes on in the club as well!
This is my first book by Nicolina Martin and I have to say that it was amazing. Loved Lou & Kat’s story. So much drama and crazy situations Kat keeps getting into while Lou isn’t around. Steamy, crazy, intense and so good.
Kat is a doctor in the ER when she’s asked to sign off on someone that came in dead. Little did she know that everything would change when she walked into that room. The patient wasn’t dead at all. He was a vampire. And everything in him called to her just like everything in her called to him.
Lou is a very old vampire and was attacked leaving him in the ER. What he found there was Kat and he wanted her before he saw her. When she found out what he was he was unable to kill her or wipe her mind, so he took her as his.
The chemistry is there from the start and their connection is strong in the same aspect. But when you have a human fall in love with a vampire it can’t last right? Kat wants more but Lou won’t change her because he wouldn’t wish his fate on anyone. Not even someone he cares for deeply. That leaves Kat at a crossroads and Lou stubborn that he is, almost loses her because of it.
Lou has secrets. Someone wants him dead and they’ll use Kat to send a message. So what’s one to do when everything you want is right in front of you and you can’t take it for your own. Read and find out.
Was an interesting read even though the girl seemed a little insecure and whiny, wanting to be changed right now, without thinking of the consequences, and picking an evil vampire she thought she knew nothing about until she remembered.

Ohhh I loved this book! It’s by a new to me author and I’ll definitely be on the lookout for more books. Good vampire books can be hard to come by or maybe I have pickier tastes but this one gets five big stars from me for sure.
Kay is a professional, intelligent woman who finds herself in a whole new world she’s forced to learn about. I liked how caring she was and she’s the perfect example of the saying “don’t mistake my kindness for weakness” because she definitely wasn’t weak. Lou was a perfect vampire. He had the charm but also the deadliness that comes with being a vampire and willing to do whatever it takes to protect his woman.
There’s plenty of danger and close calls, kidnapping, some light slave/master BDSM content mixed with the fact the story is about vampires really makes the book irresistibly seductive. And my goodness the sex appeal and tension between Kay and Lou was thick. Loved the entire book.

I LOVE the world created by Renee Rose and Lee Savino, I adore that its continued with the Midnight Doms series. This is the first one I’ve gotten to read but now I’ll be snatching up the others. Of course they’re fabulous. This one has shades of Helen Hardts vampire series at least with the beginning but the characters Kat and Lou are wonderful. Poor tortured Lou and curious Kat… its really a great story that had me going along for the ride from the first chapter. Really good editing, not many typos. Really well done continuation of Alpha Blood Hottie Lucius’s Club Toxic.. just imagine if such a thing existed!!

Lou and Kat meet at the hospital she works at. Their attraction and connection is very palpable. I was completely engrossed in reading this book. Such a good book, well written!

I am always a bit wary of reading books by different authors but set in the same world. You never know what you will get – some are a tribute to the original author’s books and others manage to ruin the world. This book definitely falls into the first category. Nicolina Martin has taken the Bad Boy Alpha series set in Tucson and added a story that fits seamlessly into this world. You do not have to read that series to enjoy this book, but the experience will be enhanced (Plus, the books by Lee Savino and Renee Rose are great!) and you will recognize familiar characters.
Primarily set in Club Toxic, a very old vampire, Lou, falls in love with a human, Kat. He struggles with the idea of losing her and because of his overwhelming fears, Lou fails to really hear what Kat wants from him, their relationship and her life. These struggles force each of them to act impulsively and has far reaching consequences for their relationship and the people around them. It all boils down to the fact that only you know what is best for yourself, no matter what anyone else tells you!
I enjoyed this story – it stayed true to the original series, featured familiar characters, and had some very sexy scenes. You can feel the emotions of the characters – love, fear, loneliness, happiness, pain and even the sexual longing – from the great writing by the author. I had a hard time putting this book down until the end. For any fan of Lee Savino and Renee Rose, this book is a must read!
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Since I rely heavily on reviews to make decisions about reading choices and purchases, I will never lie or over exaggerate my opinion. There is nothing worse than seeing a bunch of 5 star reviews and realizing the book is full of errors or just plain bad and not worth my hard earned money!
Poignant, emotion-driven, sizzling tale. Each of the authors in this series have given their unique voice to the characters while maintaining the continuity and personalities of characters from past storylines. Ms. Martin’s talent of developing strong characters whose emotions become your own and who burrow their way into your mind and heart are spotlighted in this latest addition. I had my heart ripped from my chest and put back as Lou and Kat maneuver through the obstacles inherent in vampire/human relations, but mostly I melted at the sensual dance that was their romance. Great read!
Holy WOW I loved this non stop action a huge connection and very strong emotions. Kat is a very feisty ER Dr. and stumbles onto a patient who is suppose to be dead Lou and he is amazing and everything about Kat he senses and it awakens so many feelings he didn’t even know he had.
This is very highly charged and addicting I could not Get enough, the characters and writing is fantastic as we follow human and vampire on their journey.
I loved this! Lou was great and I really liked Kat’s character. It was awesome to see more of Lucius and Selene too! I definitely recommend!
Kat is a doctor and spends her days caring for others. When she’s not at work, she’s caring for her parents as she is the only surviving child. With an empty house, she throws herself in to her work more and more. Then one night he shows up in her ER. Presumed dead, but the reader has to ask themselves…is he? Lou has spent thousands of years wandering the Earth looking for the one that sings to his soul (if he has one) and that’s when he finds Kat. This book does not lack for anything. It has some super hot steam, wonderful characters and the storyline was well thought out. As this was my first time reading a book by Nicolina Martin, I have to say I am officially a fan of her work.

This story is about Lou a 3000 year old vampire and Kat an ER doctor. What happens when Lou ends up in Kat’s ER? Nicolina Martin had created a brilliant and sexy read that I just couldn’t put down. I can’t wait to read more of her work.
