Into the Darkness by Delilah Devlin
Rene and his partner are looking for Natalie, a suspect in a series of murders. They find her easily, as she is not necessarily hiding from the police, but discover that unusual things happen around her. When Rene takes her home to shelter her, Natalie feels needs that she never experienced before. An intense evening begins an irreversible chain of events that Rene or Natalie have no control.
At heart, this book is a vampire story even though the description does not make this point clear. Natalie begins a transition to a vampire and Rene becomes entangled with her, both being forced into a new world they did not know existed.
Rene is the perfect alpha male who is put into an impossible situation. Natalie seems weak and confused at the beginning, but grows into her skin throughout the book. The two of them together light the pages on fire.
Although the middle of this book is slow, I enjoyed the ending where a new vampire world opens up to the readers. Therefore, Into the Darkness begins a new series that has several books that have been published since the release of this book.
Overall, I felt the plot moved slowly at times, but the book is enjoyable. Ms. Devlin writes intriguing characters and very intense erotic scenes. Therefore, if you’re in the mood for a slightly different erotic vampire book, give this one a try.
