Stay the Night

This is the 7th book in the Darkyn series and the story of Robin and Chris.

Book Blurb:

Robyn of Locksley is a vampire thief who’s been stealing artworks—and hearts—for 700 years...but who may have finally met his match. Namely, Christina Renshaw, the undercover agent out to catch him. Red-headed, long-legged, and whip-smart, she does something no mortal woman has been able to do in centuries—resist his mystical charms. Who is she? Why is she immune to his legendary seductions? There’s little time to ponder these questions. The theft of a priceless manuscript puts them both on the trail of an ancient enemy…and it falls on this unlikely duo—a dangerously sexy cop and a prince of thieves—to stop the deadliest threat the Darkyn have ever known.

I absolutely love this series. Ms. Viehl has a wonderful way of writing a story about a couple - while incorporating characters from previous books. This series is truly an ongoing story and it gets better with every installment - however, this is the last installment of this series. :(

Now we have a spin -off series due out November of '09 - Shadowlight: A novel of the Kyndred. I am excited about this new series and hope that it lives up to the wonderful world Ms. Viehl created with Darkyn. I also hope that the characters we have come to love from the Darkyn series will be re-visted in this new series. :)

I give this book and the entire series 5 out of 5 stars. :)

Wonderful review Michelle:

All I can say is that this series rocks. I have "Stay The Night" waiting to be read, I want to enjoy it when I can sit down and enjoy the read.

Dr. Alexandra Keller is one of my all time favorite heroines.

Best Regards

Lea,

I completely agree about Alex - I find her 'no nonsense, keep your BS to yourself' attitude hilarious. The Darkyn men have no idea how to handle her independence. :)
