 Another great story from a great story teller!!!!!! June 25, 2008
I can't say enough about how much I loved this story. Kresley Cole is was of the best writers of Paranormal romance. I would say she is the best but I haven't read every author. I can tell you that this story will keep you hooked from the beginning to the end and you will never be bored. The steamy love story will also make you want to jump your mate. So watch out !!! This is one of those stories that you will keep for re-reads later.
 Love the Heroine and the refreshing plot June 11, 2008

This was a fun fast paced read. I found the plot fascinating. The heroine became a ghost when her jealous ex-fiance murdered her in cold blood. But, the book doesn't make her into a pitiful ghost. She is a very curious one, who enjoyed watching the people who lived in her house, and she has other quirks too.
I like how the author created these 2 immortals and explained their powers and traits. I love how, in this book, the heroine has more sexual experience than the hero, and it was very exciting. Don't worry, the hero is still very manly, and the heroine is not painted as a loose woman at all.
I love that the Heroine is very independent and secure, yeah!! And Mariketa makes a strong re-appearance in this book. The Valkyries again add their kind of fun.

I'm so over the tortured Vampire thing. I think Sebastain's story set the bar, which Conrad's book couldn't live up to. The madness monologing was torturous to read, and by the time Conrad started to heal, the book was half over!
Maybe it's the loyalty to their mates or the single-minded, drive but the werewolf stories are so much more endearing. Lots of sneaking in dark corners, and not enough achieving of goals.
 First Time To Rate A Book One Star June 10, 2008

I guess I'm in the minority here. I've absolutely loved all of Cole's books and was so looking forward to this one. I got halfway though and sort of skimmed through the rest hoping it would get better. I didn't find either character interesting and really didn't care for one of the characters being a ghost. J.R.Ward tried that in one of her books and I didn't care for that book either. I didn't find either character in this book either sexy or entertaining. The book pretty much left me flat. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series though and hope Cole is back to more interesting stories.

Seeing how other reviewers have given a quick summary of the book - I will get staight to the point. KC's latest addition to the IAD series is hilarious, fun and sexy. There is absolutely nothing boring or slow in this story. I love the unique characters. A dead burlesque dancer/ballerina and a mad vampire. This heroine is not shy either! She is gutsy and bold - my favorite kind of heroine! Conrad is rather dark and brooding - yet his love is intense.
I love KC's writing because her chacters are so 3-dimensional. You can hear them and feel their emotions. They jump out of the page at you. I loved that I could actually see Conrad gradually come of madness because of this sexy ghost that only he could see (which adds some of the most hilarious moments). KC has this ability to make you feel like you are there watching every moment of her stories.
I highly recommend this book to all lovers of paranormal romance. You will not be disappointed!
