Rez's family met with a tragic end and the only thing keeping him going now is the hope that his daughter is still alive somewhere. Finding her is the only purpose of his life and he is willing to go to any lengths to do so. Holly may just be the witch that can help him achieve that but when she's around him he finds it very hard to resist her. In spite of his attraction to her, he is clear about not wanting to create any romantic ties.

As for Holly, she may be attracted to the Mastyr Rez but his leaving the Vampire Guard and not doing his part in keeping the Realm safe from the Invictus is enough to keep her feelings in check. But when she agrees to help him find his daughter another side to him is revealed and so she realizes that the warrior vampire is doing a lot more for the Realm than she realizes. Being a blood rose complicates their relationship even further.

As their alliance leads them closer to danger and achieving their goals both Holly and Rez begin to see that together they are better and stronger and that finding happiness once again is not something that Rez needs to sacrifice anymore.

Plenty of action (romantic and otherwise) in a unique world. A much longer and detailed book than the first in the series. Worth a look if you like paranormal romances with a variety of fantasy beings. ( )
