This was a good read. Not something I will be re-reading anytime soon, okay, possibly never, but still good. It's one of those things you only need to experience once and say "yep, that was awesome." But that doesn't mean this was a bad book. It was written well and the story had me intrigued from the beginning, it just didn't have that spark. I'm not sure what it was. It could be the heroine talked like an uneducated frat boy who couldn't eat cereal without spilling milk down her chin every time she ate it. *shudders* Take it from someone whose been eating cereal non stop for the past week and a half {serious cereal cravings happening in my little corner of the universe, don't ask why. }unless you are eating like a slob there should be no mess! Gerrr. Okay, back to the book. lol.

Forced into an arranged marriage to one of the vampire leaders, Creed Saint-Pierre, in order to bring the rival enemies together and insure peace amongst their nations werewolf princess Blu Masterson is downright furious that her father would agree to wed her off to a long-toothed {vampire}. But as the only female wolf in her pack, a rarity among their species, and the daughter of the alpha male she will do what she must to please her pack and father... just not consummate their marriage with his bite, marking her his forever. Just the thought of that flesh picker drinking blood disgusts her. Besides, the marriage is just a folly, the werewolves have no real intention in letting centuries of the vampires brutal attacks on their kind just die. To Blu's shock the vampires have the very same idea. Caught in an unexpected love so intense for someone not of their own species and torn between loyalty to their own and their new found love for each other Blu and Creed set out to prove the two races can coexist without blood shed. Getting the others to see this however proves a bigger challenge and the ultimate sacrifice may be the only key in ending the war. Would sacrificing ones self, love, and loyalty really help the blood thirsty nations call a truce or just add fuel to the fires?

Like I said, this was a good read. It had one of my favorite themes to it. The "I like you but I'm not going to let you know it" themes. Gotta love those. The sex in this was not disappointing. There was one scene in particular that made me go "yowza!" *grins* Let's just say it results in a very destroyed bedroom when they are finished. And though Blu's lack of proper english and ability to eat cereal without spilling milk down her chin annoys me to no end she is likable. It just takes time, and when you learn about her past and everything you can understand her better. Creed...there was nothing wrong with him, maybe he was a little bit too nice with her. She insulted him many times when he was just trying to be nice and he took it like the proper gentleman he was. Simply put this was a quick easy read with sizzling romance, action, and sexy characters that held you captivated from the start. I read this in just a few hours. Worth the read. But not something I'm going to insist you buy.
