After 17 year old Virginia is kidnapped during a date she is taken to Europe, chained, and stripped by her attackers. While this is bad enough things quickly get worse when one of the men lunges at her throat ripping part of it out. Virginia wakes up in a white room alone told that her kidnappers are dead, but she is now a vampire. She must keep this secret at all costs and can never go home again. While adjusting to her new life it seems not everything is as perfect as it could be. The boss of those who kidnapped her is still out there and may be closer than she ever realized.
I received a copy of this eBook from the author in exchange for an honest review. I read this after her book, Cursed, and I have to say that I enjoyed this one more than the other. While both are young adult books there aren't the plot holes in this one that I felt with the other one.
This book flows well and you will experience the same betrayal Virginia feels. I expected the big bad. But, you will see what I mean by betrayal as you read the story. This is a book that ties up all the loose ends by the close and everything is resolved.
My favorite character in the book was Aiden. He seems like a playboy at the beginning, but as the book progresses that does change. Normally I don't go for Cali boys, but he was sweet. Not in a swoon way more like in a awe that's cute way.
While there are sex scenes in this book they are tame and glossed over. Not a complaint, merely an observation due to it being a young adult romance book. My favorite things in this book was easily the setting. The author talks about the catacombs in Palermo and the dead that hangs from the walls. I have never even heard of these and literally had to put the book down for a good 20 minutes just so I could look into this and look at pictures and things. It may be morbid, but this is definitely a place that has been added to my list of places to visit. The perfectly preserved young girl from the early 1900s in a coffin that looks like she's just asleep is creepy. I don't know that I could go into that room since tiny human bodies bother me where I have kids that age. But the adult bodies and skeletons is a big yes from me. The authors descriptions match what you can easily see in Google images as well.
