Though Kenyon doesn't skirt melodrama entirely with this tale evidenced by the flashbacks to Valerius's unbelievably tortured past she succeeds in offering a lively read containing her signature blend of brisk action, sensual thrills and light humor. Tabitha and Valerius are aided by Kenyon's familiar crew of Dark-Hunters and Dark-Hunter friends, including their enigmatic ringleader, Acheron, who is explored in more depth here than in the author's earlier novels. The husband of Tabitha's twin has a 2,000-year-old grudge against Valerius, many of Tabitha's friends hate him for atrocities he supposedly committed many years ago and a group of unusually powerful Daemons are intent on annihilating Tabitha, her sisters and anyone who stands in their way. Unfortunately, their romance seems doomed. (Tabitha) I didnt look like a Daimon, but you stabbed me. But she who laughs last laughs longest, and I intend to belly roll tonight Tabitha Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Seize the Night What Its not my fault I stab all the fanged people. Brought together by a humorous twist of fate Tabitha stabs Valerius, mistaking him for a Daemon they light up every scene in which they're together. Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Seize the Night Laugh it up, asshole. Steely Dark-Hunter Valerius Magnus and gutsy, wisecracking Tabitha Deveraux are two of Kenyon's most appealing creations. What do you get when you pair a vivacious female vampire hunter with a cool, punctilious immortal Dark-Hunter and pit them against a bunch of blood- and soul-sucking Daemons? This taut, rollicking romance from Kenyon (Kiss of the Night, etc.), who's fast becoming a grand dame of the paranormal romance arena.
