The more I got into this book the more sucked into the drama I became. The details that authenticated the story really impressed me. I loved the historical references made regarding Matthews past. I loved the 'House' and it's peculiar opinions on house guests. I felt teased by the small glimpses of power Diana had shown and found myself really invested in seeing what she is capable of. This book is about acceptance and love no matter who you are, what your race, your family background, or even species is. I can say with all sincerity, that a world where vampires and witches can love one another freely would be a beautiful world indeed! 
 Most series I start I don't like enough to finish. This one I will be finishing.
