Buy Eternal Kiss of Darkness at:

Chicago private investigator Kira Graceling should have just kept on walking. But her sense of duty refused to let her ignore the moans of pain coming from inside a warehouse just before dawn. Suddenly she finds herself in a world she’s only imagined in her worst nightmares.

At the center is Mencheres, a breathtaking Master vampire who thought he’d seen it all. Then Kira appears – this fearless, beautiful….human who braved death to rescue him. Though her burns for her, keeping Kira in his world means risking her life. Yet sending her away is unthinkable.

But with danger closing in, Mencheres must choose either the woman he craves, or embracing the darkest magic to defeat an enemy bent on his eternal destruction.

Eternal Kiss of Darkness is the second book in Jeaniene Frost’s Night Huntress World Series.

Mencheres is a Master Vampire, who has just had to kill his wife due to her insanity. No one has ever really liked him for who he is, only for his money & his status. Kira is a PI, who one night while walking home hears moaning from an abandon warehouse, for some reason she goes in to “save” Mencheres having no idea he is a vampire. After saving him, Kira finds out what he is & when Mencheres cannot remove her memories of the event, he has to keep her around until he decides what to do next.

For me Eternal Kiss of Darkness was an okay read, I didn’t blow through it fast like a Cat & Bones novel but it was a better read then the first book in the Night Huntress Series. It felt a bit like the same old, same old you read in lots of PR books: Woman meets Vampire, Woman is leery of Vampire, Woman finds out she likes Vampire but doesn’t want to admit it. I wasn’t too fond of Kira, sometimes she was a little too uppity for me, but I loved Mencheres & it was great to finally find out what had happened in his life before sharing his power with Bones. You get a really good vibe for him & understand a lot more of the world he has lived in. There are also a few appearance’s by Cat & Bones, which made the story even better for me…who doesn’t love Bones? Plus Vlad pays a visit!

Sex. Uh huh. I am going there. You see Mencheres hasn’t had sex in an uber long time & if you know Ms. Frost, you know she writes one helluva sex scene. Add lack of sex to that & whoa, we gots some hot vampire loving peoples. Ceiling Sex. Uh huh.

If you were disappointed in the first book of the series, Eternal Kiss of Darkness will make it all better. Steamy sex, action & a cool storyline makes for one good read.

    Mencheres didn’t kill his wife, Bones did.

      With help FROM Mencheres, who blames himself for killing her.

        And I must say that part REALLY got to me that Mencheres wussed out of witnessing her death. I know it’s unfair to him and don’t really care. Even after seeing all the destruction she had caused he led Bones to her and told her how to kill her, but couldn’t witness it. Come on man, grow a pair! That being said I am starting his book today :P

    Yay Mencheres! I’m halfway through this one and I really like him:) And I like Kira a lot more than I liked Denise, but she’s no Cat.

    I love the Cat/Bones books but haven’t started this arc yet. Sounds like it will be a nice addition to this world.
