Explanation In Pursuance Of Books Sweet Ruin (Immortals After Dark #15)
An immortal assassin is caught between desire and duty... A foundling raised in a world of humans Growing up, orphaned Josephine didn’t know who or what she was—just that she was “bad,” an outcast with strange powers. Her baby brother Thaddeus was as perfect as she was flawed; protecting him became her entire life. The day he was taken away began Jo’s transition from angry girl... to would-be superhero... to enchanting, ruthless villain. A lethally sensual enforcer on a mission A threat to the Møriør has brought archer Rune the Baneblood to the mortal realm to slay the oldest living Valkyrie. Whether by bow or in bed, he never fails to eliminate his target. Yet before he can strike, he encounters a vampiric creature whose beauty conceals a black heart. With one bite, she pierces him with aching pleasure, taking his forbidden blood - and jeopardizing the secrets of his brethren. A boundless passion that will lead to sweet ruin... Could this exquisite female be a spy sent by the very Valkyrie he hunts? Rune knows he must not trust Josephine, yet he’s unable to turn her away. Despite his millennia of sexual conquests, he can’t ignore the unfamiliar longing she arouses deep within him. When Jo betrays the identity of the one man she will die to protect, she and Rune become locked in a treacherous battle of wills that pits ultimate loyalty against unbridled lust.Specify Regarding Books Sweet Ruin (Immortals After Dark #15)

In this sixteenth book in the 'Immortals After Dark' series, we are introduced to a whole new cast of potential "bad guys". This book tells the story of Rune, a daemon whose very blood is poison, and Josephine, the vampire-phantom halfling that is Thad's long lost big sister. Theirs was a case of "opposites attract".From the start, it was clear that Josephine was not going to be your typical heroine. She was orphaned at a young age and grew up fast. She is foul-mouthed and rough around theAlright. So. Sweet Ruin didn't totally do it for me. I do love the title though now that I've read the book. The cover is actually quite fitting. I loved the hero, loved the curiosity of the heroine, the action. And I hated Nix. I kinda wanted her to get blown all up as she taunted the hero and heroine through the dimensions.Now the heroine. Some moments I loved her. She's brash and does whatever needed to survive. She's a tough chickie. But then other moments I wanted to push her off a fucking
Re-read 25/7/165 Meadowberries starsMinor spoilers ahead I don't know how Kresley Cole does it but she manages to ensnare me every time. She has this formula and every time I think I know where she's going with it she pulls a hat trick out of nowhere and turns everything upside down again. After 16 books that's a big achievement. You think that you have the overall plot figured out by now but again she proves you wrong.If you haven't read the previous books I strongly suggest you do. Not only is
Despite all my resentment because of this book being about two absolutely new to the series characters......I freaking loved it. Yes, this was basically a filler story. It was a respite in the whole Accession arc - the major players are all getting a bit of rest, it seems, and Nix, despite scheming and tugging strings to bring Rune and Jo together, seemed preoccupied with her mysterious plans. But, I loved Jo and Rune, together and apart. After the latest IAD books, I missed kickass heroines
5 Stars She was a killer with blood on her hands, but she wanted to give her heart away. You know what I love about this series? The fact that sixteen books into it, each book continues to be just as good if not even better than the last. Kresley Cole continuously delivers with badass, sassy and snarky heroines, and tortured and oh so sexy heroes. That's not to mention the addicting story line that's guaranteed to keep you reading well into the night. Truth be told I was hoping to see a
2.5 stars. This book wasn't as unappetizing as Dark Skye but it wasn't enjoyable either. I didn't feel the connection between Josephine and Rune. It just seemed like a physical connection between two really stubborn people. I liked that Josephine was so focused on saving Thad but she was annoying me. Rune the playboy was just as annoying with his stupid nymphs. Even if I scrubbed my mind of the copious amount of sex scenes, I still didn't enjoy the story. I need to revisit Lothaire to remind
Update: So I've read it and really liked it. I was pretty nervous about this, since it was about 2 completely new characters. It turned out to be very enjoyable. I'm still a bit disappointed that we didn't get a story about characters we already knew. There are just so many characters that deserve to have their own story and the series proceeds so slowly. Anyway, we did get some new interesting characters and I also liked that there was all this info about the nymphs. I found Josephine
