Book Reviews of Midnight Rising (The Midnight Breed, Book 4) (Midnight Breed)
Book Review: yes, a bit rushed...
Summary: 4 Stars
Midnight Rising is a good read, although the romance between Rio and Dylan was a bit rushed. I do wish it would have been slowed down, Rio turning from the anguished man who wanted to die to adoring lover was a quick flip. The author covered a lot in one book and it did feel too short; Rio and Dylan's romance, Rio's return home and his interaction with the other warriors, Dylan's mother, Rio's closure concerning his wife's betrayal, the Ancient, the stop in Germany, and on and on. I think almost every character that we have been introduced to was in this book. Dylan and her mother were very touching, but the way that situation was resolved was somewhat shocking. It made sense concerning the mystery aspect of the plot, but I admit it left me feeling bummed out. Compounding that with the speed romance, I didn't have the happy, satisfied feeling that comes with the end of a book - especially a romance. Part of the problem with books such as this - mysterious secret groups fighting evil - is that the the female lead (generally the mysterious secret group is all male) needs to either be a loner, which they usually are, or cut all ties to her past life. It makes complete sense, but can get old. Unless the protaganists are extremely diverse and spectacularly written, it is just the same plot over and over with only little to distinguish itself from other books. Adrian has done a good job with this series so far, but I hope future books focus more on the romance between the two leads rather than the other characters and subplots.
Summary of Midnight Rising (The Midnight Breed, Book 4) (Midnight Breed)
In a world of shadows and dark, cosuming hungers, desire is the deadliest weapon...For journalist Dylan Alexander, it began with the discovery of a hidden tomb, thrusting her into the center of a gathering storm of violence and secrets. But nothing is as dangerous as the scarred, lethally seductive man who rises from the shadows to draw her into his world of dark desire and endless night.
Fueled by pain and rage over a shattering betrayal, the warrior Rio has pledged his life to the war against the Rogues. He will let nothing stand in his way—least of all a mortal woman with the power to expose the entire vampire race. For an ancient evil has been awakened, and a stunning darkness is on the rise. Suddenly Dylan is powerless to resist Rio’s touch, even as she uncovers a shocking link to her own past. And now she must choose: Leave Rio’s midnight realm, or risk it all for the man who has shown her true passion and the infinite pleasures of the heart. . . .
