About this book:
Briar nees just two things: blood and vengeance. The first sustains her immortal life; the second gives it meaning.

First on her hit list is Gregor, the renegade vampire who schooled her in a brutality, then betrayed and tortured her. To acheive her deadly ends. Briar joins the inscrutable Reaper and his misfit gang of vampires who are also hunting her old mentor.

But once she's destoryed Gregor, she'll be gone. The group means nothing to her. Not even Crisa - damaged, defenseless, a liability in every way - the childlike vamp with whom Briar shares a blood bond. Or Reaper. Though they shared one moment of pure passion, it's not as though Briar has feelings for him.

Because Briar needs no one. She needs only to statisfy her twin hungers - ones that may ultimately consume her.

My thoughts:
Good book. I've read better by Shayne but still it was good enough to hold my attention and keep me interested in what was going to happen. In this series, you never know what's coming because there always seems to be some kind of surprise. The first Wings in the Night series by Shayne I would say is way better. Only because it seemed more about love and romance and this new Wings in the Night series is more mystery and has a lot of scientific stuff in it.

( Recap.....Major Spoilers.... )

So all in all, you find out a lot in this book.

About this book:
Even by vampire standards, Reaper is a loner, and his current mission to destroy a gang of rogue bloodsuckers is definitely a one-vamp job. Then fate takes a hand, and before he knows it, he's surrounded by a ragtag crew of misfit helpers: the newbie, the princess, the shape-shifter and the human healer.

Seth is new to immortality, but he's sharp and strong--and he'll risk anything for the rogues' strange female captive, a secretive creature he doesn't understand but feels compelled to save.

Vixen is confused by the emotions that swirl through her at the sight of her impulsive hero. She only hopes the brutal Gregor and his bloodthirsty renegades will leave her alive long enough to explore them.

Or will Reaper himself be the one to destroy them all?

My thoughts:
Awesome book. Since I have read all of Maggie Shayne's other vampire novels, this one wasn't as good as them but still a fantastic vampire book. The characters were really good too. I am glad that Shanye's other vampires series is linked to this one as well. I'm hoping that there is more down the line from Shanye because her vampire romance books are amazing.
