Jasmine Parks used to be a Helsinger (vamp killer) until one day her whole world turned upside down. Now, she works for the CIA as an assassin, and she's just been promoted to the CIA's top guy, Vayl. Vayl's thousands of years old, a vampire, but he requested Jasmine to be his assistant. She isn't sure why, and he won't tell her, but she doesn't press the issue. They work well together, and the number of cars she has destroyed since working with him has dropped considerably.

Now, Jaz and Vayl are working a job to take down a plastic surgeon. But things turn nasty when politics, terrorism, and ancient supernatural forces band together to take over the world. Jaz and Vayl will need all ducks in a row to finish this one. Only one problem, Jaz has seemed to learn some new powers, and if she doesn't get back to her body in time, she won't live to see tomorrow.

I've heard wonderful things about this series, and they've been on Mt. TBR for quite awhile. On a whim the other night, I picked up this one, the first in the series. When I first started reading, I couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. But, as I got further and further into the story, I found myself unable to put it down. Jaz and Vayl are two characters with so many layers to their stories, I look forward to watching them unfold as the series goes on. Mystery, romance, and supernatural all meshed together into a phenomenal story.
