Blurb:
First in a brand new series about a Chicago graduate
student's introduction into a society of vampires.
Sure, the life of a graduate student wasn't exactly glamorous, but it was Merit’s. She was doing fine until a rogue vampire attacked her. But he only got a sip before he was scared away by another bloodsucker?and this one decided the best way to save her life was to make her the walking undead.
Turns out her savior was the master vampire of Cadogan House. Now she's traded sweating over her thesis for learning to fit in at a Hyde Park mansion full of vamps loyal to Ethan ?Lord o? the Manor? Sullivan. Of course, as a tall, green-eyed, four-hundred- year-old vampire, he has centuries? worth of charm, but unfortunately he expects her gratitude? and servitude. But an inconvenient sunlight allergy and Ethan's attitude are the least of her concerns. Someone's still out to get her. Her initiation into Chicago's nightlife may be the first skirmish in a war and there will be blood.

My
review:
Yes, I know this series has been out awhile and I just got
around to starting it. The story is terrific. There are things that didn’t age
well (technology, fashions and music) but if you can get past that I enjoyed Merits
introduction to the vampire world and her desire to be the best person she can
be even if she now has fangs. I’ve already started the next book in the series.
