A Fantastic Paranormal Romance
What a beautifully written, captivating love story! I'm completely hooked. Move over Edward Cullen, there's a new self-deprecating vampire in town!
We were introduced to William, Florence's reigning vampire, in 'The Prince'. However, his sex appeal was kept under wraps in the teaser prequel. No more! 'The Raven' delves into the world of William, unveiling his innermost thoughts and desires. He can be cold and unforgiving at times, but despite his self-loathing he retains some humanity, granting mercy just as easily.
Raven has never been considered beautiful, by herself or others. Left with a disfigured leg as a life-long reminder of her haunted past, she passes through life virtually unnoticed. When she finds herself in danger late one night, an unlikely hero comes to her rescue, forever changing the world as she knows it.
Despite the seemingly implausible nature of their attraction, William and Raven cannot deny their desire. Her goodness brings out his better qualities and instills hope into his cold, dark existence. His adoration makes her yearn for a life she'd always considered impossible.
I loved reading their love story! I will be anxiously awaiting the next book in the Florentine series. Beware, it ends with a cliffhanger that will make you question how much William's nature has really changed and have you dying to know where the story is going to lead.
