Helpful Score: 6
Stop me if you've read this before:
1) Tortured vampire who loves the naive young woman
2) Naive young woman who loves the tortured vampire
3) Vampire sparkles... I mean, he turns TRANSLUCENT during sunrise/sunset. Really? Translucent? Ugh.
The buildup to Darcy being outed as a vampire is drudging and boring. They visit Paris and Venice, where Elizabeth has "bad feelings" and everything seems "dark and dreary" until they move on to the next location. After 200 pages of this, they finally announce him as a vampire... and lo and behold, the only person in the world who knows how to change Darcy back to human happens to track them down and owes him a debt of gratitude. There's a rushed ending, birds come out to sing and I threw the book down in disgust.
Bottom line: This book reads like bad fan-fiction. Feel free to skip it. Honestly, the only part of this book I liked was the front cover's design.
