Olivia wants some time away from all the chaos in her
life. Robby has been forced to take time off. Both end up
at the remote Greek Isle of Patmos. It seems that Olivia
who can read people cannot read Robby at all. Which could
be a blessing in disguise. Robby must decide what is the
most important thing to him: revenge or love. The mutual
attraction between the two happens right from the
beginning but each comes with their own baggage.
I enjoyed getting to know more about Robby who we have
seen in earlier books. Robby is a great man who loves with
all his heart and will fight for those he cares for.
Olivia is a strong woman who can stand on her own. The
bond that these two form was a great read. As Olivia and
Robby try to figure out their feelings they must also deal
with a serial killer. I did not like the way Olivia
dismisses Robby when they are separated but did enjoy it
when she finally finds out what he is hiding and comes to
terms with it.
I loved the banter in this book as well as seeing other
characters from past books. Many of the secondary
characters endear themselves to the reader and I have to
say Olivia's Grandmother was a gas as was Carlos. This
book was a bit darker and not as comical as the others in
this series but it was just as enjoyable.
This was another good read from Kerreleyn Sparks. THE
VAMPIRE AND THE VIRGIN is number 8 in this continuing
series. Filled with not only action and suspense but
romance as well this book was a well-written fast paced
story. With characters full of humor and depth this is a
book that should not be missed.
New York Times bestselling author Kerrelyn Sparks
continues her popular "Love at Stake" series with
battle-weary vampire Robby MacKay who finds love while on
vacation.
Having been tortured in the last battle with the Malcontents
-- a faction of evil vampires determined to take over the
world - Robby MacKay is obsessed with avenging himself by
killing the leader of the Malcontents. That exactly why his
bosses have sent him on an enforced vacation!
Calm and cool nights on a tropical island are exactly what
his bosses ordered...except there's nothing cool about
Olivia Sotiris. Also on vacation in the Grecian islands, the
sexy FBI psychologist is desperately seeking respite from
her last case: a deranged serial killer who targeted young,
attractive women. A killer who has made Olivia his latest
obsession, taunting her with mysterious gifts even from a
maximum security prison.
Spending time with Robby banishes Olivia's nightmares where
nothing else can. But their vacation comes to an abrupt end
when a package arrives from Olivia's dangerous admirer.
Determined to put an end to the case and the killer once and
for all, Olivia returns to investigate a crime scene that
may be related to her stalker. Instead, she finds a gruesome
supernatural scene. Olivia and Robby are horrified to learn
that their worst enemies have teamed up. Caught in a deadly
trap, will Robby be too late to save the one woman he cannot
live without?
