BOUND BY FLAMES is Book three in Jeaniene Frost's Night
Prince series. Because of the events that take place
in
this series, it is highly recommended that you read BOUND
BY FLAMES only after reading the previous two books in
order. In addition to being a story about vengeance and
full of non-stop action, for me, BOUND BY FLAMES is very
much about Vlad and Lelia's evolving relationship.
The warlike climate in BOUND BY FLAMES is intense,
violent,
and also helps define relationships between characters.
The
main enemy is never really in question, but the direction
the heroes take in fighting the enemy is less sure.
Jeaniene Frost does a great job in BOUND BY FLAMES of
peeling back layers of Vlad's psyche to try and explain
the
man he is and why he is so protective of Lelia. This book
shows Vlad's personality from all angles and he is a more
sympathetic character in BOUND BY FLAMES than I have ever
found him to be in previous books.
Lelia becomes a stronger character with each book in
the Night Prince series. Her struggle to find her
place
in Vlad's vampire world is as interesting as all the good
vs. evil missions they find themselves a part of. She
develops a toughness over the course of the book, while
still being very likable and easy to relate to. Her
relationship with Vlad is similar to others in which an
older man has taken a younger woman as a wife. There is a
learning curve, and I like how their relationship matures
and they learn more about each other by the end of BOUND
BY
FLAMES.
BOUND BY FLAMES is sexy, exciting, and fraught with danger
at every turn. You learn more about both main characters
and like them a little more than you already did. I can't
wait to see what happens in the next installment of
the Night Prince series!
The climactic third novel in New York Times bestselling
author Jeaniene Frost's Night Prince series finds Vlad and
his newly turned bride, Leila, at odds with each other—and
vulnerable to the one vampire powerful enough to end the
Dark Prince's reign . . .
Play with fire, pay the price
Leila's years on the carnie circuit were certainly an
education. What she didn't learn: how to be a vampire, or
how to be married to the most famous vampire of them all.
Adjusting to both has Leila teetering on a knife edge
between passion and peril, and now the real danger is
about
to begin . . .
Vlad must battle with a centuries-old enemy whose reach
stretches across continents and whose strength equals his
own. It isn't like Vlad to feel fear, but he does . . .
for
Leila, because his enemy knows she is Vlad's greatest
weakness. As friend and foe alike align against him—and
his
overprotectiveness drives Leila away—Vlad's love for his
new
bride could be the very thing that dooms them both . . .
