THIS FIRE CANNOT BE QUENCHEDLondon:Considering how quickly Zane and I met and then wed, a lot of people thought our relationship wouldn’t last a month much less the five years we’ve been married. We’ve proved them all wrong. We’re still deeply in love with an intimate connection neither of us would ever let go.Zane has been ordered to officiate The Decrees, an event that happens once every ten … happens once every ten years. He will be holding court over vampires who have committed various wrongs, and judging them. I thought vampires had no laws, but learned there is a movement by some elders to create a way for vampires to stop killing each other over a disagreement
I’m not so sure if that’s an accurate description since the past events had been violent, and murderous things.
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t scared, but I’m determined to stay with Zane and support him through this.
Zane, confident and cocky as ever, seemed to be taking it all in stride.
He told me what he would do if his judgement was challenged by any of the attendees.
“I would kill them the moment they opened their mouth against my ruling. No discussion. No mercy.” His voice had been incredibly low, and chills ran over my skin. He was deadly serious, and I knew he’d meant it, without a doubt. “You only know me as your lover. You’ve never seen how lethal I can be.”
Not knowing what to say, I didn’t utter a word. What he was telling me was the truth, and I prayed I would not have to behold his wrath. Something inside me, though, told me I would.
It was as if The Decrees was surging forward, with its only desire being to take us down and render us apart, and the only thing to stop its homicidal intent was the immovable wall that was Zane.
And, I got a call that my mother needs to move in with us for a while due to an injury. The Decrees plus my mother? I don’t know if we’ll survive it all.
Zane:
All I wanted to do is hang out with London, and have fun with her. Take her out on the town, like to Draco’s midnight magic show. Her face was filled with joy, and she laughed at the travesty the magician subjected us all to before volunteering to be his assistant for the night.
At the beginning of our relationship, she never would have considered doing anything like that, but she’d given herself permission to be who she was, and I couldn’t be happier.
Interrupting our lives, The Decrees has risen up, like an omen of destruction around us. Although I knew I could handle whatever it threw my way, horrible visions of London’s death at the hands of vampires I had angered by my judgement plagued me. I tried to stop them from leaking out and contaminating her, but sometimes I couldn’t.
Everyone else saw me as a leader, a force not to be crossed, without suffering the consequences. But London… she saw who I was. She knew and loved the real me. I didn’t have to worry about showing my vulnerabilities to her.
There was only one weakness I had, her. London was everything to me. My entire world. My greatest fear was losing her.
That would happen over my dead body.

First I just have to say….. It’s been a while since a book really rocked my world as much as this. How often is the next book better than the first one? So man, I really didn’t see this one coming! This grabbed a hold of me with both fists and just twisted! This opens a few years after Zane saved London, gave her immortality and married her. It’s been good. I’m glad because it’s about to not be. No, not at all. They meet a magician (Draco) while at his magic show, (it was hysterical) Draco picks London out of the crowd and then he lost her during an act. You have to read the juicy details on your own..but don’t forget about Draco.(zips lips) Then Gage calls to remind Zane about the approaching Decrees and that it’s his turn. The Decrees is where, once a decade problems and issues that couldn’t be settled are brought before an elder to be considered and judged. Assets are divided, property divested, even people can be reassigned. It’s a secret affair that can last weeks. It can also be dangerous. Judges have been over run and killed. Some just ended in a massacre.. Any judge that refused their turn is gone…. But wait, there’s more…. Louise ( London’s mom) broke her ankle and is coming to stay so London can care for her. Yep! just what they need right now. Most of us know all about her. She is not a nice person. She brow beats London and nothing but insults about Zane. But this visit turns out to be so funny. Bye bye Louise.
London has been training to fight. She also makes a surprising discovery about herself.(zips lips) …. And Oh. My. My. What can I say about all the Hot Erotic Vampire Sex. That delicious man of hers always finds time to service his Queen… So, Umm, Ok. We have Zane, Gage, London, Jen, Tina, and Reese, (who by the way is still trying to get Mazzie to marry him) they have all come together as a team. They each know their part. The game plan has been made, preperations are all done. But can they really ever be prepared? Surprise? yep, I expected one or two. Being totally blindsided? Nope, I never saw this ending coming. The Decrees is above and beyond anything I could have imagined, but the ending (remember Draco?)… EPIC! I seriously recommend this as an adult must read.
I snatched this up after reading book two – I just had to! Loved it as much as the previous one – these characters are fantastic and the writing exquisite! The author has done another fabulous job – very well done!
Zane book 2
More Zane baby!!!
London and Zane have been together a couple of years now, they’re blissfully happy and still very passionate about one another – if she was human, she would be sore, as would he lol but they are vampires so they don’t have to worry about such nuances.
When life is going swimmingly let’s face it you expect something to go wrong. It turns out Zane has to be judge and jury over the vampires this year, it’s like his jury service but is dangerous and bloody at times…….worse than that it appears the mother in law is making an appearance!
Zane comes across a tad more domineering in this book, he loves control in the bedroom but outside he treats London as an equal, but he is concerned for her welfare in this book and tries to keep her safe.
London really retreats at one point, almost to her pre-vamp self, all thanks to her unkind mother – it turns out to be a good thing in the end as she finds good use for her pent up feelings. Zane is very patient and understanding to a point, but he has no love or respect for the mother in law from hell. He won’t be stopped from showing his wife affection in his home…..
I was delighted when an old friend shows up 🙂
The trials are eventful, bloody and surprising and show how much London grows in this book.
I will say this is erotic vampire romance, there is lots of sex in the first part of the book, I was thinking not more sex – then I started thinking oh my am I getting old….. but then there was a break and I missed their intimacy, phew crisis averted!
Sexy, hot and fun Zane and London part 2 is not to be missed.
Wow!!!
This book was a big Wow.
This book takes over after 5 years of marriage and what a strong level of two lives that were made for eachother.
London and Zane have such a love that they would die for one another.
This book was so much more intense then the first one in my opinion. This book their love scenes were powerful and so beautiful. It was pure love.
Zane and London have become more than husband and wife. The became ONE!!!
Of course, I will never give any Spoilers but this book had a great plot and had wonderful fight scenes. This book was remarkable!! This book is one of my favorites. Elaine’s writing is amazing. Her writing gets you worked up, screaming OH YEAH!!!!
If any one had not read this book, ITS A MUST BUY!!!! It’s perfect!!!
Buy now!!!!
London and Zane are back! They have had a blissful few years after London was made a vampire. Just as well, cos if she was human all that sexytime would have killed her.
Zane must now take his turn acting as Judge, Jury and occasional executioner, hearing the various claims and allegations of Vampire kind. Oh and to add more stress …London’s mother turns up!
Zane may be in charge in the bedroom but he treats London as an equal partner out of it. So when her mother manages to make her retreat back into herself, he is NOT a happy camper! No one brings London down, not her mother and especially not herself.
Old friends, new drama, trials and tribulations all merge into a great read!
