Holly's demon series mixes contemporary themes with a historical background that exudes eroticism in all its magnificence and glory. Don't miss this one... Lucius is one sexy beast. ;)

Not as steamy or exciting as I usually like but it was a good story and had some different insights into what it is to be 'upyre'.

Wow--very steamy! Not my usual type of book but I did enjoy it.

Hmmmm-set in Regency England, so it's a historical romance, but with vampires (or upyrs, a very imaginative reframing on Holly's part) who can shape shift into wolves. I bought this only to post it onto my pbs bookshelf, because I know there are a lot of fans of paranormal romance out there, but of course I read it first, and I enjoyed it. Well written, with a dry wit and 3 dimensional characters, but a little "too much information" for me in some of the sex scenes, this turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. Emma Holly has quite an imagination and can employ the right words to make you see her mental creation. You go, girl!

A rather fun romp in Regency times with a powerful, shape-changing upyr. I enjoyed the story and characters. However, in my opinion these are not vampires, at least not in the traditional sense. I think I'd have enjoyed it more had the vampires actually been vampires.
