Read in February, 2008

I had heard good things about this author, but sadly I was disappointed. I understand the need to "describe" in order for the reader to paint the picture, but this author OVER does it. I found myself flipping pages just to get past her blah blah blah's, and back to the story.

Her sex scenes are dry, and boring. It's like she copied and pasted each one, and just changed the characters according to the book she was writing.(Jacob, Gideon, Elijah) All tormented, and undeserving of love and family. Each a different Demon of the elements, which is a cool concept, but it felt to much like a poorly written, Feehan knock off.

And like Feehan's "Carpathians," Jacquelyn's "nightwalkers" are all the same story, just different characters. If you've read one book, you've read all three all ready.

I'd say if she had started with the last few chapters of her books, as the beginning and went from there it would of been a lot more interesting for me.

I was bored with this series, and would call it "Ok Filler" while waiting for your fav. author's new novel to come out.
