My thoughts: I really enjoyed reading this book. There was something about it that made me feel that it wasn't like every other vampire book I have read. Although, I have not been able to pinpoint exactly why it made me feel that way. I really like Eli, and his brothers and sister. And to me, Riley was a tattooed bad-ass that I really could see as one of my friends in real life. I do plan to continue to read this series. I can't wait to see if Riley and Eli's relationship gets steamier.
