 Arianna has been captured. Captured by the blood thirsty vampires who rule over the humans. Arianna is a rebel and if they know who she is, they'll kill her. Arianna is taken to be auctioned off as a blood slave and bought by the most unlikely of buyers, the prince. Arianna tries desperately to hate the man whose kind she grew up despising, though his unending kindness and strange gentleness makes her mind spin. Can she completely trust everything she has ever known, or can she trust an enemy who she can't help falling for.

This book very good. It wasn't like, WOW and knocked my socks off, but it was enjoyable. I really liked all of the characters although some of them annoyed me a couple of times and I wanted to see more from some characters throughout the book such as Max and Maggie. I did think this book would have more action in it than it did because one of our main characters and who a lot of the perspective is from is a rebel. Speaking of perspectives, it was a dual perspective in third person which I found pretty interesting because you mostly see first person in YA. I found some of the dialogue very weird, though. The words didn't seem to flow right when characters would be speaking. There was never a moment that the characters were just sitting around, either, they were always doing something which I like. I don't like it when characters are just sitting and talking about something that doesn't contribute to the story. I liked Braith a lot, although I found his temper didn't quite go with character Stevens was trying to create; he never just got mad, he got full on homicidal and then came back down to being normal pretty dang fast.

I do have a lot more to say about this book, since I did really enjoy reading it and I'm so glad there is four more books out because THAT CLIFFHANGER! What's going to happen next? I don't know! I'm going to have to shell out that $2.99 to get an eBook (although the covers are gorgeous. I would  most definitely buy physical copies if I have money to spare). Since I have more feels I will be adding a discussion to this review within the next few days!
