If there's one thing Basha Argeneau, who's better known
these days as Madame Divine, doesn't want to happen, it's a
big family reunion, especially since her family might just
kill her for being a rogue vampire. When a sexy immortal
arrives at the carnival she works at, Divine is determined
to keep her distance. Her plans go a bit awry when it
becomes apparent that the newest member of their carnival
family may just be her lifemate.
Marcus Notte has one job to do; find Lucian Argeneau's long
lost niece and bring her home so she can be questioned
about some rogue activities. The woman he finds during his
search, Divine, fits all the physical criteria to be
Lucian's missing niece but she's nothing like what he
expects a vicious rogue to be. Not being able to read
Divine is just the first obstacle in Marcus's path in
determining if she is in fact Basha. There's also the
complication of Marcus falling for Divine, but if she is a
rogue, will he be willing to stand by her?
With VAMPIRE MOST WANTED, the twentieth book in the
Argeneau series, Lynsay Sands shakes things up by
giving us
a darker tale than we're used to. Basha's past is full of
heartbreaking moments and the fact that she believes her
family would kill her for what happened to her keeps her on
the run. I really admire that even given everything she's
been through, Basha is still so caring and warm hearted.
I'm glad Sands didn't play her as a victim and instead made
her strong and independent. Marcus, a fan favorite since he
first showed up in A Bite to Remember, is a wonderful
partner for her, full of understanding and compassion.
Sands usual brand of humour is subdued in the book but I
think that's appropriate given the gravity of what's
happened to the heroine, though there's a mop scene with
Marcus that people will recognize as classic Sands. The
carnival setting will remind many of their childhood and
stuffing themselves with cotton candy and donuts. Sands
also brings back the storyline with the no-fangers, which
many people have been wondering about. I think many a
reader will be surprised with how things pan out on that
end. VAMPIRE MOST WANTED is a phenomenal read by Lynsay
Sands, who, as usual, does not disappoint.
