SHADES OF MIDNIGHT is book 7 from the Midnight Breed series which I’ve followed from the beginning and for the most part really enjoyed. You can always count on yummy and tortured alpha male heroes, steamy romance and exciting action filled paranormal storylines. Adrian has built a great Vampire world here that always reminds me of a vanilla-fied version of Ward’s Black Dagger Brotherhood. Unlike Ward each instalment continues to be either hit or miss for me though and I’m never really sure goin

Shades of Midnight had a lot of potential, but I found it too slow. There was a lot of clutter in the writing that bothered me, too. Character's speculating about events that did, may or may not occur. An enormous amount of recapping or summing up of events that already happened....
As for the two main characters, Kade and Alexandra, they were good, well developed. I grew frustrated at all the doom and gloom Kade carried around based on his family situation. Got SO tired of rea More...

^^ALASKA AND VAMPIRES,WHEN HOT MEETS COLD!^^
Book 7 in the Breed series takes us to Alaska, and seriously, I wasn’t expecting that. It seemed like quite the leap, from city vampires to frozen terrain of unknown Alaska. As the book progressed, it started to sort of make sense, when you have an animalistic predator on the prowl his pursuit of any and everything living would take them anywhere.

I have to admit that after waiting for the release of this book i was a bit hesitant to finally read it. I read a few reviews previously that left me wondering if i would really enjoy the story.
I shouldn't have worried because the book was great, in fact one of the best i have enjoyed from the series. These two very broken main characters were just fantastic and i have to say that i didn't feel at all any lack of depth in their relationship. Nor did i think that after what they had More...

What can I say really, that hasn't already been said about this series? I will say that I absolutely loved this addition to the series. I like the addition of new characters again, and the story telling was wonderful, I just kept turning the pages uncontrollably, I just couldn't stop once I was able to sit down with it.

I started this series a while back because I really wanted more vampire stories in my life and I was in between books with Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter Series, J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood Series, and Keri Arthur's Riley Jensen Series. I have decided that I really liked this series, enough so that I decided to keep all the books.
As for this book, I didn't think I would like Kade as much as I did. I loved that the book was set in Alaska and I enjoyed getting to know a Brother More...

My Review:
I complained about the different feel to the last Midnight Breeds book, but this one I loved. I loved the totally different feel to it. I loved the different seeing and the fact that there was very little of the Order in this book. Maybe that was because I liked Kade & Alex and their story so much. Maybe it was the Alaskan wilderness setting. I don't know, but this book really worked for me.

Before I say anything at all, I will point out that I really really love this series, probably more then the Black Dagger Brotherhood (these series have a lot of similarities).
Anyways, I was a little (LITTLE) bit disappointed with this book, but it was mostly with the writing style/lack of good vocabulary. It seemed kind of simple to me. I like learning new words from the books I read; I don't want to be bored. (WHICH I WASN'T!)

I'm well aware that this review is going to be a minority opinion, but as much as I've enjoyed Adrian's Midnight Breed series, this particular book and the lead characters in it just didn't excite me as much as the previous novels.

The story telling quality is good but not quite a masterpiece. I would give it a 4 out of 5. The story itself is also good but not terribly original. Maybe because I've read the Black Dagger Brotherhood by JR Ward and the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon already that it has now grown old on me?! Perhaps. I would give it a 2 out of 5. The cover art... If I was browsing the shelves of a bookstore on a retail therapy binge, I would pick this book up as a potential buy just by it's cover alone

Book 7 is all about Kade, another member of the Order. A group of Breed that swore to protect humans from Rouges, a disgusting creature named Dargos (who scientifically breeds Gen One assassin into a kidnapped Breedmate's womb) and from an Ancient. I felt though with the Ancient in this book that maybe he wasn't or isn't the enemy but in fact maybe an ally and I'm curious to see what happened between him and the female involved in this book (NO SPOILERS ON THAT FOLKS)!

I feel like the story started off pretty slow compared to the other books in the series. It started off okay, but not enough to really grip me, not enough to make me want to finish the book in one seating. In fact, there were moments when I actually yawned out loud reading it, and it's not because of lack of sleep.
It took at least half of the book to really get me into the story. Once the story started to take off, then it really got me going chapter after chapter.

Another good installment of the Midnight Breed series. This book centers around Kade, a fairly new member of the Order, and Alex, an independent but haunted female pilot living in a remote town in Alaska. There is good character development for both of these characters, and although I never really felt completely invested in their fates, I liked them both. I could go into the details of their stories, but they both follow the "formula" so there really weren't any surprises.
