Blurb:

From USA TODAY bestselling series Vampire Girl, comes the next book in the saga: SILVER FLAME. For fans of Twilight, A Shade of Vampire, and Outlander, experience a fantasy romance with an original twist on an old tale.

I was an ordinary girl, living an ordinary life, until I sold my soul to save my mother.

Now, I am trapped between two worlds. Between the vampire demons who own my contract, and the Fae whose bloodline flows in me.

Between the prince I'm falling in love with, and the race his kind has enslaved.

My Review:

4 stars — This series is still very action packed and fast moving.  I can devour these books in less than a day, I get completely wrapped up.

I’m not sure I’ll have as much to say in this review…it’s hard to not be too spoilery, you know?  I will say, there was a lot more depravity in this one…vicious acts by a certain Prince in particular.  I wasn’t expecting that.  And not only that, there is also so much death and destruction, it’s actually hard to take.  I can’t help but wonder what will be left to save?  I feel like I need more wins…I need someone to root for.  I need someone to genuinely want the right thing along with Ari.

I still very much appreciate Arianna, though her fire has been tempered a bit in this one…she’s just got so much going on, and it’s a lot of weight on her shoulders.  I will admit that I was not impressed with this one act by Arianna…it felt completely out of character for her.  I feel like the authors just wanted to show us this one aspect of the magic, but they didn’t give Ari enough of a good reason to act in this way, so it just annoyed me.

A pleasant surprise for me was the development we saw in Kayla!  I didn’t expect to get a secondary story to enjoy, but I was definitely absorbed!  And I’m super curious about Tavian and who he is now.

My trust is still shot…I was, and still am, worried about some events that happened at the end of the book, and I feel like this book proved that not trusting isn’t such a bad idea.  But I guess I’ll have to wait and see if my theories prove correct.
