When Simon and Zoë both meet, both of their lives change forever and nothing will be the same. Will their love last? Or will Christopher finally get the best of his fellow vampire brother?
At first, I wasn’t sure if I would like this book. I thought it would be a really pointless vampire romance novel, but it turned out to be exactly the opposite! Annette Curtis Klause is an amazing writer. She intertwined the complicated teenage life with the life of a true vampire; true vampire as in pale skin, burned by sun, afraid of crucifixes and running water. All that good stuff packed into one, with a completely unexpected, heart wrenching ending.
