Keepers of the Flame #1
Melissa F. Hart
Key Points:
*Beautiful, eye-catching cover that drew me in and made me hit the "buy" button.
*It's fantasy-based erotica that I'm truly interested in exploring right now.
*The idea for the plot was wonderful. I would have loved to read it if it were fledged out properly, but it wasn't. Not even close.
*How is an immortal vampire born and then ages like a normal human being? At some point does their visible age slow? The author hinted at this, but I think it needed to be explained better. It sounds ridiculous as it stands.
*The fight scenes flew by too fast, and were hard to follow. They needed fledged out more.
*I'm not sure how this classifies as erotica. There wasn't a single thing erotic about it. It felt more like poorly written young adult to me.
My Rating: 2 out of 5 stars
Author's Description:
A few months to her 17th birthday, Luanne Kylor begins to experience weird attacks. When she’s almost killed at a shopping mall, her grandmother decides that enough is enough and hires a bodyguard. Even though she’s immediately attracted to Dylan, a bodyguard is the last thing she needs as she’s trying desperately to blend in.
What most people don’t know is that Luanne belongs to a family of vampires. But not just any vampires; they are known as the BORN breed because they were born into their heritage. They are a sort of vampire evolution and Dylan is a member of the Protector Order of the BORN breed.
Forging a tentative bond, Luanne and Dylan come together and both face those that have been haunting Luanne for over four years. They had murdered her entire family and now they’re after her. Survival has suddenly turned into a very dangerous game. Will Dylan succeed in saving her or will she have to look inward and find the strength to save herself? What is her connection to the stone in the pendant around her neck?
