dangermousieUmmm. I am sort of into a fantasy-romance series (of books) now. Occasionally I read romance books and this is one of those times.
Yeah.
Dark-Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon. Wtf is wrong with me?
Even I can tell they have not much redeeming value, and non-existing literary one. But they are fun and a fast read. And I am always a sucker for series with interconnecting worlds.
Especially when these words involve super-angsty hotties who fight vampires and snarky caring women who make it all better plus magic, Greek Gods, and werewolves of some sort.
I can overlook the fact that the book I am reading (number 10. Apparently there won’t be too many more so yay for me coming close to the end) is set in Seattle and I am sorry, I cannot imagine a less vampire-prone place.
So yeah. Addicted.
Even though it hurts my head to think of the fact that their boss (who I actually want a book about, stat) is Artemis’torture object sextoy boyfriend. You know, the Virgin Goddess?
Um.

Yes.
But then if he thinks Acheron is an unfortunate moniker, he should check out ‘Flawless Flower’ from Handsome Siblings wuxia drama. How’s that for a tortured hottie name? And he doesn’t have being a God to help him get out of sticky situations.
ETA: Checked. Book about the guy in 2008. Ahhhh, I love predictability.
ETA2: Personally, I don't think a guy who is 11 thousand years old, runs an immortal vampire hunter society, needs regular meals of immortal blood (as in biting) to keep from turning into an evil super vampire, has a relationship with a Goddess that can be at best labelled abusive (on her part) and generally more issues than all the editions of Time put together, makes a good partner, but IMO.
