Search - Even Vampires Get the Blues (Dark Ones, Bk 4)

This was my 2nd book I've read from Katie MacAlister and it surely won't be the last! She writes in an amusing, entertaining way. I loved the story of the half-elf Sam and the Dark One Paen she falls in love with.

Good read with a few twists on the vamp plots. Sexy vamp hero teams up with half-elf Samantha to find a relic which will save his mother's life. Laughs, thrills and you can try to figure out who is working with, or against, who.

So far this is the best one I've read in the Dark Ones series. As the author states in a cute forward in the book, this Vampire is Scottish due to a swell fan-based requests that she write another vampire book with a Scottish hero (yes, there is a scene with a kilt). The heroine, Samantha Crosse is half-Elf and half-mortal which makes for an interesting character. The Dark One, Paen Scott (pron: pain) is the typical dark, brooding vampire, but unlike previous books he is not interested in finding his Beloved, nor does he believe Sam is his even with all the evidence to the contrary. Some very funny parts, a couple of sexy bits too. Lots of twists and turns in the plot. Overall an enjoyable read. Gave it 4 stars.

This book was one of the better ones in th is series.

Pean Scott, Dark One: vampire without a soul. Samantha Cross, half-elf & former diviner - Find each other in a 'I don't want to admit I am in love with you but I'll commit to a good roll in the sack with you relationship.' The tension between these two in the beginning of this saga is a nail bitter. But as the story's plot unfolds I became ultimately bored with the "where is my monkey statue?" scenario. The only thing that propelled my to finish this story was the relationship between Pean and Samantha. The battle scene between the demon gods was worth reaching the end of this read.

This is a great book! It's funny, imaginative, sexy and good clean reading! I enjoy this author and can't wait to read more of her books!
