Another excellent book in this trilogy. This book, although published 5 years after it’s prequel ‘Shades of Gray’, takes up right where that one left off.
Edward Ramsey has been turned into a vampire, in an attempt to save his life. Turned into a creature that he was born and raised to hunt, to despise. How does a vampire hunter, dedicated to destroying what he has always thought of as evil beings, deal with the fact the he is now one of those creatures? That is one of the things that I love about this series of books. We see a completely different POV. We see the struggle of a newly made vampire, who despises what he has become, struggle to adapt to his new life. With the help of Grigori, the vampire who gave him the Dark Gift, Edward tries to accept his new life. It is not until he meets Kelly, another lost human soul, and begins to fall in love with her that he begins to accept what he has become and embrace his new life. Just as it seems that things will be good, Khira moves into town. Khira is the ancient, evil vampire who turned Grigori 200 years ago. She is the oldest vampire and as such terrorizes the other vampires who live in her newly claimed territory. When she comes after Grigori & Edward, they must once again join forces to try to stop her. With the help of an old friend of Edward’s, Tom Duncan, another vampire hunter, the group battles Khira, in an attempt to not only save their lives, but the lives of the innocent victims that Khira enjoys preying on.
Excellent book and I am looking forward to starting the next on the trilogy.

vampire romance
got it from paperback swap; looks like it got a little wet at some time. It's in pretty good shape though, and a good read, of course!

Edward Ramsey has spent his life hunting vampires. Now he is one of them.

And as the ancient, stunning, and merciless vampire Khira seeks supremacy among Los Angeles' undead, Edward and his former nemesis Grigori Chiavari, once Khirs's lover, must unite to stop her-before the city, and everything they cherish, is in her power...After Sundown.

I love any good vampire book. This one leans heavily toward the romance genre. I prefer more action/intense books, as opposed to romance. Romance readers will like it!

Edward Ramsey spent his life hunting the very thing that he has become. His conscience is screaming for him to end it all, but somehow he doesn't have the will. Things start to change when a desperate woman tries to end her life and Edward must save her.
Kelly gives him reason to live on, even as a monster. He needs her love and kind heart, but she's been hurt and trampled on too many times.
An ancient evil is in town too. A merciless, yet stunning creature named Khira. She is seeking supremacy in L.A and wants her former lover back...Grigori. Edward must join forces with his sire and enemy Grigori to take down the oldest evil known, but will it be too late? Will she devour Los Angeles?

Very good series by Amanda Ashley. I enjoy her characters. Turning the hunter into the hunted was a nice twist. Can't wait for the next one!
This is one of those books that reminds you to not judge someone until you live like they live.
This is another great book from Amanda Ashley!
Vampire romance thriller
This book is the book before or the book after "Shades of Grey". The story continues with Edward Ramsey and his new love along with Chiavari and Marisa.
another good one in the series!
EDWARD RAMSEY HAS SPENT HIS LIKE HUNTING VAMPIRES. NOW HE IS ONE OF THEM. YET EDWARD'S HUMAN CONSCIENCE-AND-HIS HEART-COMPEL HIM TO SAVE BEAUTIFUL KELLY ANDERSON,AND SOON THIER GROWING LOVE IS HIS REASON FOR LIVING. LOTS OF ACTION AND ROMANCE. I LOVED IT.
this book was a bit different than the other paranormal romance i've read in the past, it was very dark, gloomy, and a little depressing, for the vampire, that is. i felt very sorry for him, but, happy for him because he finds someone he can relate to, kelly. but, will their relationship last when a former lover who is also a vampire, tries to take him away. good read.
