First of all let me say, I loved Gleason's Gardella Vampire series. This book, not so much. It wasn't bad, I read it pretty much in one sitting. But it was just okay. I knew who the "bad guy" was pretty much from the start although I kept telling myself that it was so obvious that it would end up being a surprise twist at the end. Nope, no surprise. I did like the feisty Fiona and Gideon wasn't too bad either but the story just didn't do much for me. While I wouldn't rush out and buy a copy, if you like what was more of a Gothic romance, check it out at the library. If you want to read some really awesome Gleason books check out her Gardella Vampire series. so loved them and their Victorian setting. I did read that these had been updated for new release but I thought they were pretty perfect in their original form.

This book kept my attention and I enjoyed myself. My big issue was the baddie was too easy, but the mystery was satisfying- I didn't quite expect that.
