Is He Her Mortal Enemy-- Lady Shay is the last of her kind. Half human, half Shalott, her blood is a precious aphrodisiac to vampires, who consider it more precious than gold. Though Shalotts are renowned assassins, a curse held over Shay lands her on the slave auction block, where her fate is uncertain. . . Or The Man Who Will Risk All. . . Viper, the beguiling chief of a deadly vampire clan, can't explain his longing to possess the beautiful Shalott who once saved his life, but now he is free to do anything he wants with her. Strangely, while he desires both Shay's blood and body, he wants her to surrender willingly. To Save Her Life? A hidden evil has been stalking Shay since she left the slave market with Viper. It is an evil that endangers the very existence of Viper's kind, and there's no reason he should court such danger just to protect a Shalott. But the love he feels for Shay is enough to make him willing to go to hell and back if it means spending an eternity with her in his arms.. . . Praise for Alexandra Ivy and When Darkness Comes. . . "Not to be missed. . .Ivy is definitely an author with huge potential in the paranormal genre." --Romantic Times (Top Pick!)

Embrace the Darkness
3.5 Stars

After the demise of her previous owners, Shay is placed on the auction block once again and is bought by Viper, a vampire who has been obsessed with the Shallot demon since she saved his skin in the previous book. Unfortunately, another party is also interested in Shay, or more precisely in her blood, and she and Viper soon find themselves on the run from a dangerous foe who will stop at nothing to possess her.

The world building and characterization are still superficial with little detail on the origins of vampires and the nature of their abilities. Nevertheless, the story is well-written with some good action scenes and the romance is satisfying if unoriginal.

Shay is a fiercely independent heroine with understandable trust issues but Viper has an abundance of patience and slowly convinces her to place her trust and her love in him. Their relationship is sweet and sexy, and you cannot help rooting for them.

Dante and Abby reprise their roles and it is good to catch up with their HEA, but the most entertaining character is definitely Levet, the undersized gargoyle with feelings of inadequacy - he is simply a laugh-riot.

All in all, not the most original of paranormal romances but the series has enough potential to keep me interested in reading the next one. ( )

I enjoyed "Embrace The Darkness" by Alexandra Ivy. I like Shay and Viper. Two great characters. This book has lots of adventure, action, and romance. ( )

Great book! Better than the first in the sense that the characters were more relatable, in a sense, than the first couple. The plot was just as interesting and this time around we had the chance to take a peek into the life of a clan chief. Character development I found to be a little lacking concerning Viper, because Shay's was pretty great. Loved Levet! ( )
