Acclaimed author Kresley Cole introduces a sizzling new series with this tale of a fierce werewolf and a bewitching vampire -- unlikely soul mates whose passion will test the boundaries of life and death.

A mythic warrior who'll stop at nothing to possess her . . .

After enduring years of torture from the vampire horde, Lachlain MacRieve, leader of the Lykae Clan, is enraged to find the predestined mate he's waited millennia for is a vampire. Or partly one. This Emmaline is a small, ethereal half Valkyrie/half vampire, who somehow begins to soothe the fury burning within him.

A vampire captured by her wildest fantasy . . .

Sheltered Emmaline Troy finally sets out to uncover the truth about her deceased parents -- until a powerful Lykae claims her as his mate and forces her back to his ancestral Scottish castle. There, her fear of the Lykae -- and their notorious dark desires -- ebbs as he begins a slow, wicked seduction to sate her own dark cravings.

An all-consuming desire . . .

Yet when an ancient evil from her past resurfaces, will their desire deepen into a love that can bring a proud warrior to his knees and turn a gentle beauty into the fighter she was born to be?

Includes an excerpt from Kresley Cole's next romance novel, No Rest for the Wicked.

5 Stars - Yummy to Say the Least

Customer Rating:

This is the first book from Ms. Kresley Cole that I read, and I instantly fell in love with her writings. I went and bought all the other Immortals After Dark Series that are available and all of them have proved to be fantastic reads. Although some readers have mentioned that they did not like the idea of fated "mates" I find that Ms. Cole made the idea merely a way for the characters to meet and get to know each other. When it comes to subjects such as "fated mates" and "love at first sight"," it is generally easy for authors to fall in to the trap of not being able to explain/show why or how the two became so deeply in love with each other. However, this is not the case with Ms. Cole. As much as the two characters are destined to be together, and insticts did urge Lachlain to "protect" and "provide" his female, the emotional attraction between the two was never left out. By the end of the story, you will not have questions as to why they were so deeply in love with each other. The character development of both Lachlain and Emmaline were great too. As much as Lachlain is an alpha male, and that he is very dominating in personality, he never overpowered the existance of Emmaline. In fact, with her being so timid, she personality stood out as much as the dominatign Lachlain did. Her change towards the end of the novel was also something that made her a very unique character. She was never annoying and stupid that you'll think she's too dumb to exist, nor was she ever so strong and stubborn that you'll want to kill her off just so the story can keep moving along. All in all, by the end of the novel, I've fallen in love with both of the characters and couldn't wait to see more of them in the books later on the series.

A Hunger like no Other	Customer Rating:
This is a nice change from just werewolves or vampires. This covers all the other's. With that said, I think there should have been another book before this one telling about how it all began. Each has their own stories, but they are still one family.

A Hunger For More

Customer Rating:

A Hunger Like No Other was far from what I expected. I thought that it was going to be a vampire love story that I was going to be bored with before I reached page 5, but Kresley Cole proved me wrong, by page 5 I was hooked. Emmaline is an inspiring and suprisingly sweet and gentle character it's hard not to fall in love with who she is as soon as you learn about her. When she is run down by the all powerful brooding Lachlain, a Lykae, he introduces her vulnerable personality to his extreme rough need for her. Lachlain is quite the invigorating character himself, being locked away by the vampires repeatedly burning him to death for more then 150 years until he escapes to find Emmaline, his life mate, and when he finds her he realizes she is one of the very kind who had been torturing him for all of these years. The story is about their struggle together, as well as their own seperate struggles. I was more then pleased with this amazing romance. It is hot and always keeps the reader on their toes wanting more.

Absolutely a 5 star ride!	Customer Rating:
