Description:
Kerry Nowicki, 16, never dreamed that vampires lived in her little town
of Brockport, New York, let alone that she would become involved with a
handsome one named Ethan. When she makes a late-night trip back to the
laundromat to retrieve her little brother's stuffed bear, she interrupts
the murderous plans of a vigilante committee that claims Ethan is one
of the undead. Kerry tries to help him, so they assume that she is a
vampire, too. When the two young people escape, Kerry's brother and
father are kidnapped in retaliation, and a complicated game of
cat-and-mouse follows. During the often harrowing experiences that
follow, Kerry proves to be an intelligent, level-headed young woman. She
recognizes the danger of her attraction to Ethan, but knows that she
must trust him to help find her family. Ethan maintains the cunning and
duplicity that readers might expect from a vampire. The plot is lively
and intriguing, with an unexpected twist at the end
Review:
OH MY GOD!!!
This book is amazing!
I don't know why I did not post this book as my first review on my blog.
Companions
of the Night is the first vampire book I ever read. Yep, it is because
of this book that I have become a romance junkie and Ethan was my very
first book boyfriend - he is the reason I began my love affair with
vampires. Yes, I read this when I was 12, we had in our school library.
WOW! Saying that makes me feel old...Anyway...this book has it all: suspense, danger, mystery, and a sweet YA budding love.
Kerry
is the average girl next door, but everything changes the night she
returned to the laundromat to retrieve her younger brother's bear. Ethan
is there, tied up and bloodied. Naturally, she helps him escape the men
she believes are crazy for accusing the pale, handsome, boy of being a
vampire. However, the drama does not end there. Kerry's father and
brother are kidnapped from their home and a threatening message is left
on the wall in her living room - I can't tell you what it says, though I
really want to - Needless to say, she needs Ethan's help.
What
you get in this book: vampires, vampire hunters, a human girl thrown
into the mix, kidnapping, boosting cars - a little crime.
