Lucien was protective as well but his protectiveness wasn’t as sincere as Alaric’s was and I never once swooned over him even though I probably was supposed to. The protectiveness that comes out in Alaric was just too cute for words. They were friends first and I really enjoyed them together.Īs much as I adored Lucien early on in Insatiable, for me it was always about Alaric for Meena. The relationship that bloomed between Meena and Alaric was strictly platonic even though Alaric wanted more from Meena. In this book, Meena is now working for the Palatine Guards with Alaric and Alaric has the total hots for Meena but is annoyed that she only sees him as a friend.

It’s so good to see Meena, Jon, Alaric and even Lucien back in action. I’m pleased to say that I enjoyed this book so much more than I enjoyed the first book. Once I got past the beginning hump of the first book, I quickly finished Insatiable and was eager to start Overbite. This time, Meena may finally have bitten off more… and temptations she never even imagined existed impossible to resist. So why doesn’t Meena-or Alaric-trust him? As she begins unraveling the truth, Meena finds her loyalties tested, her true feelings laid bare.

Father Henrique-aka Padre Caliente-New York City’s youngest, most charming priest, has also been assigned to the case. But Meena isn’t the Palatine’s only hope. especially when a deadly new threat seems to be endangering not just lives of the Palatine, but Meena’s friends and family as well. Meena knows convincing her co-workers-including her partner, Über-demon-hunter Alaric Wulf-that vampires can be redeemed won’t be easy. at least until she can prove her theory that just because they’ve lost their souls doesn’t mean demons have lost the ability to love. But that was before he (and their relationship) went up in flames. Sure, her ex-boyfriend was Lucien Antonescu, son of Dracula, the prince of darkness. With Meena’s ability to predict how everyone she meets will die, the Palatine finally has a chance against the undead. The Palatine Guard-a powerful secret demon-hunting unit of the Vatican-has hired her to work at their new branch in Lower Manhattan.
