** spoiler alert ** 
 I like this new series. She started human, then becomes an abomination (half vampire). Now, love interest are a plenty. You have his ex mage Bruno DeLuca, a werewolf-Kevin who is still with someone else (Amy) and of course another mage/Bodyguard Creede. 
 She doesn't trust people, she has been hurt as a child, her father left her, her mother is an alcoholic. She discovers she is part siren which makes women hate her unless they are in menopause. People are trying to kill her. What a week for Celia!
