Synopsis
There's a lethal new recreational drug out on the party circuit. To stop its spread, Team Darkwing must immerse themselves in New York City's nightlife, where they discover ties between the drug's revenue and the country's most powerful dynasty. To infiltrate the family, Daphne flirts with its weakest link, a party boy whom she'd love to sink her teeth into. But even as their dalliance leads her deeper into the case, Daphne can't stop thinking about Darius, the darkly sexy human she claimed with a passionate bite. He's the bad boy she knows she must forget-if she doesn't, she'll be risking not only the mission but her own heart.

Worse than the first oneby Feolet

September 22, 2009: What can I say, I'm a optimist. I figured even though the first book sucked I'd try the second one. It can only get better right? Wrong. It was so horrible I didn't even finish it. All the same problems with the first book. Its suppose to be a kick a** vampire team, and they stumble and fail through everything. Attempts at humor, fail. Not worth it.

April 13, 2006: As much a stand-alone story as a sequel, Past Redemption takes the Darkwings on a new adventure--to stop the spread of a deadly recreational drug. Or is it really the drug of fear which is used to control so many Americans these days? That question is left open, for there is a deeper level in this book if readers care to look for it. However, on the surface this is a fast-moving adventure story filled with twists and turns. What is the real identity of Bubba Lee, the new vampire spy on the team? It is great fun finding out. What is Daphen's lover, Darius (a vampire-hunter turned vampire and filled with self-loathing) really up to? And is the new guy in Daphne's life, St. Julien Fitzmaurice aka Fitz, truly as nice as he seems to be--or something else entirely? All these elements drive the plot, while the flashback scenes between Daphne and Lord Byron are pure erotica... fun if you enjoy really steamy sex. They are great 'what if' teasers too, because maybe bad boy Lord Byron really did chase after a vampire once upon a time. All in all, I had a good time with this one, which shows an intelligence and sophistication usually absent in mainstream romance titles.
