Much better than the first in the series...
“This second book in the Dark-Hunter series was much better than the first (Fantasy Lover) in all respects. The plot and pacing were better, it didn't repeat themes and angst nearly as much, it had more action, and the dialogue and writing was more mature. It did have some spots that stretched believability (I didn't buy into the instant love between the hero/heroine as well as I would've liked, and the steam scenes fell a little flat, for some reason). And sometimes the dialogue got a little cheesy. Overall, though, it was a good read - worth the time. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series.”

Night Pleasures-A Joyfully Recommended Title
“A case of mistaken identity has Amanda Deveraux waking up, handcuffed to an unconscious god of a man. This was so not the kind of thing that Amanda wants to happen in her life. She is nothing like her flamboyant family. She just wants to have a normal life with a husband and children.

Kyrian of Thrace was once the man that all women wanted and all men respected. Until he was betrayed by the woman he loved and his soul screamed for justice. Now he walks the night in the service of Artemis, protecting humans from soul sucking Daimons. Waking up handcuffed to a woman he wants immediately and who is the only person to ever stand up to him was not part of his plan.
Plans change. As of now, Kyrian and Amanda have to stay alive long enough to get the handcuffs removed, which has to be done by a god, and save the life of Amanda's twin, Tabitha and fall in love and get Kyrian's soul back and defeat Desiderius, a really nasty half god Daimon and come to terms with Amanda's innate untapped powers.
All Amanda ever wanted was a family and a normal life. Kyrian's dream was the same. Fat chance of that when her family is so magically inclined and he walks the night. What are they willing to risk to have that dream?
This is the hardback special edition of the first Dark Hunter novel and it's time to read it if you haven't. And if you have then read it again. It is so worth the second, third or even the tenth time. Kyrian and Amanda are one of my favorite couples in this series. They are so different from each other, the accountant and the Dark Hunter. But it's like they say, opposites attract. And end up having more in common than they thought. I love a happy ending. And I joyfully recommend Night Pleasures.

Kyrian of Thrace, Book 2
“We were told about Kyrian in the first book, now its his turn to tell his story. Turned Vampire shortly after the tragedy with Julian in the first book...we learn about this, and basically starts the true series of the Dark Hunter! The first book is needed to bring the reader into the world, and how the Fates work, so be sure to read it first, but dont worry the series just gets better...I have ordered the next few books. Cant wait to bury myself into the Dark Hunter world once again! Happy Reading”

Extremely Entertaining
“This was a great start to the Dark Hunter series. I loved how it tied in with Fantasy Lover and Kyrian and Julian found out each other were still alive. Amanda and Kyrian's meeting and banter was fun loving and funny and I love Kyrian's explosive jump right in nature. You meet a lot of important characters in this book and beginning to get to know others that will follow in later books - very good. ”
