the first in a new "paranormal romance" series (cuz apparently, i like my porn to involve fangs or werewolves) that's so far surprisingly good. my coworker who's been keeping me stocked in the supernatural crack that's been fueling a month-long book-bender has found a real winner in this new author. you can tell from the first book that there's some carefully considered world-building going on, and the plot is far more than mere filler between bedroom scenes. nutshell recap: a woman finds out as she's approaching her mid-20s that she's really a half-vampire. the ruler of the vampire race, good friends with her deceased father, arrives to see her through the physically dangerous transition to vampirehood. we get introduced to all of the rules of this particular universe at the same time our heroine does, and many of the supporting characters in here earn their own books from the get-go. i devoured this one in its entirety on a plane ride home, and its sequel the very next day. lots of fun.
