Leila was convinced that Vlad lost interested of her, because she was experiencing difficulty with her psychic ability. She was also frustrated by Vlad's old-fashion way of how women should be treated, thus when Vlad offered her an eternal place in his bloodline, Leila decided it was time to give up. On the other hand, unable to admit his true feelings for Leila, Vlad thought he was doing what he thought was best for Leila. Vlad knows that once everyone know how important Leila is to him, his enemies will never stop coming after her. 
 I was so excited to read this book, and I almost stayed up all night to finished it. (Almost since I have to wake up early to go to work the next day). 
 Unlike Once Burned (book 1), Twice Tempted was heavier on the romances. It was like riding on a roller coast ride, my emotions was going ups and downs, twists and turns. At first I was like WHAT?! And then I was NO HE DIDN'T! (tee-hee) I am very happy with the new development of Vlad and Leila's relationship. Now we got that part clear up, how Vlad truly feels about Leila, I can't wait to see what happens next!
