It doesn’t matter if Natalie Lambert is a suspect or a victim, good cops do not get involved with either. At least, that is what Rene Broussard keeps trying to tell himself when he is tasked with protecting her overnight – at his own home. In his own bed, even. But as the beautiful virgin vampire comes into heat for the first time, she proves as irresistible as she is determined when she sets her mind on seducing Rene! Natalie can’t explain the desire she feels for Rene – something she has never felt before. Even harder for her to understand is this strange urge she has to bite him… When an unknown threat terrorizes Natalie, murdering those she loves most, she is swept up in the arms of a new family – one she never knew existed – who will stop at nothing to protect her. Delilah Devlin is a relatively new author for me, and I am enjoying what I have read from her so far immensely! Her new vampire story, Into the Darkness, is no exception. This is actually the first full-length novel I’ve read by this author, and she proves herself as capable in this format as she is with a short story. Be warned, Devlin’s vampire society lives by a set of mores that are atypical to human society, and readers must learn to adjust along with Rene, who is also human. As Rene grows to accept the strange new world he is thrust into, we are provided the opportunity to gain the same acceptance through his eyes, easing both him and the reader into this new world. Natalie is a wonderful leading lady to Rene’s hero, and is simultaneously sweet and innocent, yet bold and sensual, providing Rene no quarter as her newfound sexuality asserts itself. The more sensitive readers should be aware that this book contains elements that may be too titillating for delicate sensibilities, including a ménage scene and a female/female scene. While I usually do not choose books with female/female content, the scene fit with the peculiarities of the vampire culture in Devlin’s story, and I didn’t find it offensive or out of place. While Rene’s & Natalie’s story is complete in this book, the author creates opportunity for possible sequels with some very interesting supporting characters. I know I will definitely be keeping an eye out for a sequel to INTO THE DARKNESS!
