Just when I thought I knew what my favorite Seven Deadly Veils novel was, this author writes an even better book. Veil of Secrets is now my favorite story of the series. I’ve probably said this in a previous review of the series, but it bears repeating – if you are a fan of vampires and other paranormals and haven’t entered the Veilverse yet, you are really missing out. Ms. Marik has created an interesting, intricate vampire world, with other paranormal elements. At the center of the vampire world is Lord Valadon, High Lord of the New York City vampires, his closest friend, Remare, who is also head of Valadon’s Torian Guards, and Professor Miranda Crescent, a human Elemental with extraordinary powers, who has a deep connection to both vampires. Valadon is front and center in book 4, where secrets and more of Valadon’s past are revealed, along with a few surprises I didn’t see coming – including a big one involving Miranda and Remare. All paranormal fans need to read this series filled with strong, sophisticated, fun, sexy characters. You won’t be disappointed. I really can’t wait for the next book.

The latest book in the Seven Deadly Veils series, Veil of Secrets, focuses more on Valadon. He is the King of the New York vampires and a big part of this series and I’m glad we got more time with him. We get insight and some of the backstory into the vampire’s life, especially Valadon’s. The book is filled with secrets, some are exposed, others still held. There is deception all around with trusts and loyalty being questioned while friendships & loyalties are being bound. Diana Marik writes in vivid detail, her words drawing you in. The numerous characters are well-developed and fascinating. You never know what’s going to happen next. The series plot line is growing and expanding. A perfect blend of the vampire/werewolf/elemental world in current day. A lot of action, suspense, and romance all woven perfectly together.

In this book, Veil of Secrets which is book #4 in the Seven Deadky Veils series the author involves her readers in the characters she has created and lures her reader into this different world.

Palace Intrigue. Vampire Style
What a fantastic installment in this intriguing series. When I read the blurb I began salivating and couldn’t wait to sink my teeth into this one. I’ve been hooked since Book 1 where I was captivated by Valadon. The handome and sexy vampire king of New York. Every king needs a queen but Valadon is being forced to mate with an enemy.
What a delicious plot! And Marik delivered. Once again all her richly developed characters pop in and out of the spotlight teasing with juicy clues to all the secrets behind the veil. When it’s pulled back be prepared for some shocking revelations.
As the wedding approaches everyone is so on edge. You can feel the tension in Marik’s words. She owns these characters!
While this is Valadon’s book there is still plenty of Remare and Miranda drama and passion to feast on. Everyone has a stake in this marriage and what it will mean for House Valadon. Superb!
I can’t wait for the next book!
