Interesting caste system with vampires. Each group originates with a god/goddess and has a unique to them ability (turning to smoke, being super fast, shifting). However with most groups, you have ones who think they are better and treat others as such. So, not surprising in this world, vamps can e snobby assholes.
Tynan is a Cait Sith. He can shift to a cat. The Cait Sith are also considered to be the lowest class and serve the Ptolemy (considered to be the highest). The Cait Sith that don't go into service (for lack of a better word) live in exile/poverty. Something/someone is killing off the Ptolemy. Ty is tasked with finding a Seer to figure out who it is so they may be stopped. Lily is an orphan and was adopted by a famous family. She has her own trauma in her past and she is different.
While this could have been an interesting concept it fell flat for me. Ty's blind obedience to a group/people/person who didn't value him was frustrating and went on too long. I didn't particularly like Lily or Ty and could not connect to either. Lily's abilities are interesting, but were figured out too easily. I didn't really like the romance either. The secondary characters were just okay.

I absolutely love this book.
First, Tynan is an excellent example of the alpa male. He is on a mission to save his dynasty by finding the last seer. His skills and protective nature gives him the strength required to play to role of hero while his insercuity of his rank in his society makes him lovable and in need of protecting.
Lily is strong and determined. She has learned to hide her powers even though she doesn't even know what they truely are. By living her life as an outcase, she can relate to Ty's insecurities and buffer him against prejudice.
The instant spark between these two characters makes for a wonderful romance. I am relly looking forward to Jaden's book.
