A Hunger Like No Other - Kresley Cole

During our flight from London to Toronto,

my darling son decided,

once again, 

not to nap.

So of course,

I found myself another fabulous book to read!

My mate, Sarah,

read one of the books in the series

and highly recommended it. 

Being the purist that I am

I had to go for the fist novel in the series.

And let me tell you,

this is a series I cannot wait to sink my teeth into.

When Lachlain, a werewolf,

 scents his mate

while hidden below the streets of Paris,

he does what he was unable to do for 150 years,

and breaks the chains that have held him prisonner

and escapes.

Emmaline, 

half vampire and half Valkyrie,

has lived a sheltered life

with her adoptive Aunts.

Lachlain is disgusted to learn

the woman he's been waiting for is a vampire,

the hated enemy of his clan.

Yet he takes her hostage

figuring he'll decide what to do later.

Emma, meanwhile

is terrified.

Having never fed from an actual source

and being a young vampire,

only 70 years old,

she does not know what is going on.

I love how this was written.

It was great to see

Emma's growth.

She gains not only physical strenght,

but she is no longer timid and scared.

And she even tames 

Lachlain's beast!

Can you tell I'm all giddy?
