TREACHERY . . . Something the powerful Vampire Lord Raphael has seen far too much of lately. RAGE . . . An emotion that, left unchecked, can burn like the fires of hell. REVENGE . . . A dish that philosophers claim is best served cold.It’s been months since the powerful French vampire Mathilde used Raphael’s arrogance against him and nearly succeeded in taking his life. His fury has grown … him and nearly succeeded in taking his life. His fury has grown stronger with every day since, fed by new bloody incursions onto North American soil by the Europeans, while vampire politicking has forced him to wait. But no longer. Someone has attacked his home, killing vampires, threatening Cyn. They’ve taken it one step too far, and Raphael’s tired of waiting. His enemies are about to discover that revenge can taste damn good when it’s hot, too.

I just love this series. Cyn and Raphael are just so damn cute together. I love when D.B. Reynolds writes these little short stories, anything that gives me more Cyn and Raphael time. In this book they are going after the European vampires that have been sending hit men to Raphael’s home, and people. Raphael isn’t going to sit around anymore while these power hunger vampires come after those he loves, he is taking the fight to them. Raphael and Cyn are just so bad and I love that they fight together. Relentless not only gave me happy time with one of my favorite vampire couples but it set up the next book in the series Quinn! When Quinn came on the scene I was totally intrigued. Sexy, powerful, smart and Irish I just can’t wait to read Quinn’s book.

Loved it!
Best of her novellas I have read so far.
More Later…….
Here we are introduced to Quinn for the next novel in this series.
Raphael and the other Lords have had enough of the Europeans.
They decide to take action.
And holy crap!
Do they ever take action!
They come up with a ‘Fantastic’ plan and put it into action. Not only do they take their enemies by surprise and shock the Vampire world, but they ‘Kick Butt into Next Year’!
Awesome suspense and Action!
Oh, and yes, the adult scenes are steamy and hot.
This one goes to the top of my favorites in her novellas!

My Thoughts – 5 out of 5 Unicorns – I loved it!!
***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!! Yes, I received a review copy of this book, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book!
The cover is another Cyn and Raphael steamy kiss, so it is perfect!
This is a novella in the Vampires in America series. It is book 11.5, and it is for adults only due to the violence and steamy content. I highly recommend reading all of the books in this series and in order because it is just awesome all together and knowing the backstories and lead up to everything.
Both Raphael and Cyn are as devoted to each other as always, and neither will stand for the other being hurt. This book is the lead up to Quinn’s book, and it provides backstory about him. It also provides Raphael with some vengeance regarding all of the attacks on him and those he considers his. D.B. was definitely on her game because I didn’t see several things coming, and it is always nice when it is unpredictable and leaves you surprised though I did scream inside.
I highly recommend to any vampire fans because this series rocks!! I can’t wait for Quinn’s story!!
I love this series and this newest book did not disappoint.
Smokin’ Hot! Cyn & Raphael is once again heating up the pages while shaking up the vampire population. I can never get enough of Cyn & Raphael, these characters easily pull readers into their lives and get you hooked because not only is there never a dull moment, but readers get some red hot sex scenes that have me melting into a puddle as I read them. The action scenes are just as intense and thrilling as the sex scenes are hot which keeps readers glued to every page.
I love how the author keeps giving readers these shorter novellas in between the main books of the series, not only because it allows me to keep in touch with Cyn & Raphael but it always ties things up nice and neat, connecting things that you might not have connected before. My only complaint is I really hate putting the books down and having to wait for the next one, which I am sitting on pins and needles waiting for, Quinn needs to hurry up on his take-over of Ireland, so I can get to reading his book.
D.B. Reynolds has once again awed her readers with what can only be described as a thrilling prelude to the next full length Vampires in America novel.
A magnificent precursor to the epic battle looming in Ireland; Relentless tantalises the senses with subterfuge and danger while showcasing the formidable Raphael at his powerful best, and a hidden vulnerability awakened only by his Cyn.
Can one series continue to hold readers in its grip, hanging on every word and desperate for each new book? Apparently it can, as the dedicated fans of this commanding series have proven, time and time again.
