Brandy has a way of capturing me and taking me away with her characters.\u00a0 She has strong willed women and protective males.<\/p>\n<p>In the previous book Amelia was turned into a vampire and now the Council needs her help to solve a case. This puts Brent and Amelia together to work closely on this case. The draw that keeps pulling these two together is unavoidable. Brent is cautious when it comes to Amelia and them binding he only wants it to happen if that is what she really wants and not because of an assignment. Not only does this assignment bring her and Brent closer but Amalia is faced with Eamon who tries to get her to be with him by helping to unlock her past.<\/p>\n<p>The twist and turns kept me wondering what was going to happen. Loved Amelia and Brent together and to see their story unfold was incredible. I was so enthralled when both Amelia and Brent\u2019s back story came to light. The thing that was most amazing was what Brent and Amelia has to be able to pull off for this assignment to work. I have to say it the one think I love about this series and Others of Edenton Series is how well Brandy entwines the characters from both series. I cannot wait for her next book she has a way of telling a brilliant story not matter if it is her paranormal or her contemporary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7569 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsharbaugh.files.wordpress.com\/2018\/01\/db-teaser-1.jpg?resize=474%2C475\" alt=\"DB Teaser 1\" width=\"474\" height=\"475\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7570 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsharbaugh.files.wordpress.com\/2018\/01\/db-teaser-2.jpg?resize=474%2C474\" alt=\"DB Teaser 2\" width=\"474\" height=\"474\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7571 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsharbaugh.files.wordpress.com\/2018\/01\/db-teaser-3.jpg?resize=474%2C474\" alt=\"DB Teaser 3\" width=\"474\" height=\"474\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7572 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsharbaugh.files.wordpress.com\/2018\/01\/db-teaser-4.jpg?resize=474%2C474\" alt=\"DB Teaser 4\" width=\"474\" height=\"474\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><b><u>MEET THE AUTHOR<\/u>:<\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Brandy L Rivers is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author.
