Paranormal romance by Virna DePaul. An interesting premise. After vampires revealed themselves to humanity, a war between the two cultures began. Human scientists developed a vaccine for humans, that made their blood useless to vampires, so that human blood won't nourish the vamp. Then a truce, or treaty was struck. This sets the scenario for the story. The vampire population is sickly, and declining. Vampires are encouraged to marry and mate other vampires, in order to propogate the species. Our vamp hero, Knox and his clan live in an isolated dome for thier own health and protection.
The problem is that Knox is in love, and always has been, with his first vamp wife's best friend, human woman Felicia who is an FBI agent. Knox wants to marry a vampire, as well as have the love of his life in his world. Felicia isn't having it. She doesn't want to be second to anyone else, she doesn't want to share, and she doesn't want to betray her best friend. Felicia is an old fashioned girl: love, honor, fidelity.
The FBI wants to put together a Para-Ops team, whose first goal is to investigate a possible cure for the vampire-killing vaccine that had been distributed. Guess who is going to run the Team, and guess who else is going to be on it?
Sound confusing? It is. This book has lots of action, lots of characters, and even more plots and sub-plots. I found it hard to keep up. I found myself skimming through some of the action. The romance is OK. I didn't like Knox, naturally. He wants it all, without any sacrifice on his part. There are smokin' hot sex scenes.
The book is pretty good. Probably not as good as JR Ward or Larissa Ione, but I'll still look for the second in series.
