Lilith awakens cold, naked and alone, knowing nothing--not even who she is--except that she has to run, run for her life...because someone is after her.

When Ethan discovers the terrified woman hiding on his ranch, he knows immediately not only who she is, but what. He's never forgotten her, not in all the time since he escaped their joint prison, a clandestine CIA facility where humans are bred into vampires willing to kill on command. He refused to accept that fate, and since he won his freedom he's become a legend to those he left behind. With her own escape, Lilith has become a legend, too, and now--together--they have no choice but to fight those who would become a legend by killing one.

The heroine wakes up naked and hungry under a bridge with no memory of who she is or how she came to be there. She's immediately set upon by armed men in a blank SUV and barely manages to escape. She's fast, and strong and can hear and smell things she knows she should be about to. But she's drawn to one barn in a small town by invisible threads and a vague memory of a kiss with a man. There she meets the hero who is at first thinks she's there to kill him but soon realizes she's vulnerable and needs his help to survive. He reveals to her that they came from the same facility, the one he escaped and has been hiding from for so long. But in his escape, he left her behind because their prisoners had kept her drugged and feeble minded. He's felt guilt about his actions for so long and now feels compelled to help her in any way he can. Slow, bit by bit she begins to remember things and becomes determined to save the other imprisoned men and woman by returning to the Farm and destroying it. But she's weak, she has no memory and though she's a vampire, she's not immortal. If she's wounded, she'll bleed out if not careful but she's stubborn and naïve and she's horribly selfish. Though she had just cause to feel betrayed by the hero leaving her behind, she ignores the fact that her actions put his life in danger as much as her own. She knows that he will follow her anywhere and if she goes to the facility there's a chance both of them will be recaptured but she doesn't care. Also, she's moody and doesn't understand why the hero can't just cut ties with his brother and goes into a hissy fit when she's denied something. I've read a few of Maggie Shaynes books now and I can't say that I really truly enjoyed any of them. They are one dimensional and often portray annoying heroin's and weak hero's. I try but I can never be engaged in the story and find myself skimming pages after a third of the way through. I think it will be some time before I attempt another book in the series. ( )

Didn't like the way it was written. Very juvenile. ( )

This was better than the more recent vampire novels by Maggie Shayne. It had great action and an interesting backstory. I found myself liking Ethan, a new vampire who lacked all of the classic alpha male traits so common in many of her novels. On the otherhand, the female protagonist, Lilith, really got on my nerves. She acted more like a spoiled brat than a strong fiesty woman. The concept of The Farm was interesting and should make for a string of good stories. ( )

The CIA is running a secret program to create super-vampires, brainwashed to do exactly as the government directs. Problem: a couple of the Bloodline vampires have escaped. Lilith, one of the escapees, has no memory - in fact she doesn't even realize she IS a vampire - until she meets her true love Ethan. Now they're on their way back to the farm to kick some a$$ and take some names.

Those positive comments they stick on the back of books to convince you to buy them? I can't believe that any of the people who commented on this one actually read the book.

Sappy, boring, and banal. ( )
