Black Moon. Desiderio Di Sangue (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
I have a complicated relationship with this series. I wasn't impressed with the first book, but with each book after that I started to really like the series. Now I'm back to the series being blah. I think Quinn is an ass, and stand him. And Riley must be dumb to jump right back into bed and a relationship with him without questioning anything.While working a new case, Riley runs into bounty hunter Kye Murphy, who was serving as a body guard to her old pack when she was working a case for them. Riley becomes annoy when he keeps popping up at her crime scenes and repeatedly threaten to have him arrested. Which in lie my first annoyance with this book. After the hundredth time threatening to have him arrested I just want to tell her to STFU. If she wanted to have him arrested she would of done it the second time he showed up. But at the same time there's an attraction that neither one of them can deny, no matter how much they don't want it.I just want to know is Riley the only guardian that actually works on cases? And why does Riley always gets the worst ones? This book had way too much Quinn in it for my taste, and not enough of Rhoan and Liander or even Kade. I was disappointed that Quinn was her only lover in this book. She has said before that her nature needs more than one lover. And I don't buy this she has two souls so she has more than one soul mate bs. Rhoan is the same thing she is, and he doesn't have more than one soul mate. Riley is more wolf than vampire while Rhoan is vice versa, so if anyone would have two soul mates it would be him and not Riley.I knew exactly who the killers were once Ben told her that two women own the strip club and couldn't get more information on them. Once Riley starts digging into records and saying oh these must be coincidences, how stupid can you be?! After the first coincidence she should of been very suspicious. And what was with her saying my vampire every page? I get telling strangers I need to get home to my vampire, but beyond that? It's like she wanted everyone to know that she has a vampire. Usually I love Riley. But in this book I just wanted to come through the pages and bitch slap some sense into her.And luck would have it she finally finds her soul mate, and it's none other than Kye. Which Riley is very upset over claiming she doesn't even like him. She doesn't even know him to make that conclusion. Not to mention both were very flirty and playful during the whole book. All because he's a bounty hunter? He does the same thing she does, except she works for the government and he's pretty much a gun for hire.From the end of the previous book I could tell what direction the series is going into. And honestly I didn't want to read this book or finish the series. I'm thankful there's only two more books left. In questo settimo capitolo della saga troviamo Riley Jenson coinvolta in un'indagine che riguarda l'uccisione di vampiri e adolescenti umane ad opera di una strega in cerca di vendetta. Sul piano sentimentale, Riley si sta impegnando a portare avanti un rapporto quasi esclusivo con il vampiro Quinn, nonostante la lupa che c'è in lei sia ancora alla ricerca dell'anima gemella. Anima gemella che fa "irruzione" nella vita di Riley proprio in questo volume, nella figura di Kye, spietato assassino e sua vecchia conoscenza. L'attrazione tra i due è intensa e la sua lupa lo reclama, ma entrambi non vogliono questo dalla vita. Negli ultimi capitoli, la saga è decisamente migliorata. Nei primi libri, le scene di sesso la facevano da padrone, invece adesso sono incentrati quasi esclusivamente sui vari casi che la protagonista si trova a dover risolvere. Nel complesso giudico il libro positivamente, mi piace lo stile della Arthur, la sua scrittura semplice e scorrevole. Non mancano descrizioni un po' raccapriccianti, alternate a scambi divertenti tra i vari protagonisti. Do però un voto un pochino più basso per la presenza degli zombie nella storia...non amo particolarmente gli zombie e ne avrei fatto volentieri a meno. La saga di Riley Jenson va verso la conclusione, mancano infatti solo due libri e finalmente sapremo cosa succederà al triangolo Riley-Quinn-Kye. Riley dovrà arrendersi al volere del fato e accogliere il licantropo Kye nella sua vita, o c'è ancora speranza per la sua metà di vampiro che non vuole rinunciare a Quinn?
