Review of Caressed by Night (Rulers of Darkness #2) by Rhonda Valverde
Caressed by Night is
the second book in Amanda J. Greene’s Rulers of Darkness series. Like
the first book in the series, Caressed by Moonlight, Caressed by Night
is filled with unforgettable characters that jump off the page and grab
hold of your heart. When I first started reading Caressed by Night, I
was surprised to see that it took place in present day since the first
book in the series was set in the 1800’s. Amanda Greene has really shown
her fantastic writing skills by taking a series that started as a
“historical” vampire romance and flawlessly continued the series with a
second book that takes place 200 years later. I was pleased to see
that Dorian and Victoria from the first book make an appearance and
other characters from their book play a part in this story as well.
Dimitri Arsov, King of the Arsov Clan, is an intoxicatingly powerful
and sexy vampire. As the last remaining pure-blood, his powers are
beyond anyone’s imagination, yet his heart is so fragile and without his
mate, Kerstyn, he would be lost. Ms. Greene has a way of writing her
vampires that while they are powerful, they have many qualities that
make them vulnerable emotionally. Each and every character has their
own story to tell, and while the book focuses on Dimitri and Kerstyn, we
learn many things about the other characters, vampire history, and get a
clear picture of how all these Rulers of Darkness have been linked
together in the past and will work together in the future to continue to
build this wonderful world that Ms. Greene has created.
Caressed by Night is
full of sizzling passion, deeply addictive characters, and a story-line
that refuses to leave you long after the story ends. There is so much
left to tell in this series I simply can’t wait to see what Amanda
Greene has next in store for all these sexy Rulers of Darkness.
Caressed by Night
Dimitri Arsov, the last remaining pure vampire, was thought to be dead
for the past four hundred years. Now, he is back and has a score to
settle with the traitor that had tried to kill him centuries ago. But as
he waits for his prey to blindly step into his carefully laid trap, his
overwhelming hunger for blood is triggered when he saves a beautiful
art historian.
Kerstyn Ingmar’s life was normal and straight up
boring until the night she is rescued by the dangerously sexy,
powerfully mesmerizing, Dimitri. Unable to resist his diamond blue eyes
and intense kisses, she is drawn into his world of darkness and closer
to her impending doom.
While their desire consumes them, Dimitri
is haunted by images of a bloody and deadly future. As his enemies draw
near, he must find a way to save his mate from her destiny before fate
destroys them both.
