I did not read book one in this series and it had no adverse effect on my enjoyment of this one but if you have the choice I would definitely begin with the start of this series.
Eve Conley-Adyemi is a clairsentient mortician helping the deceased with any unresolved issues and helping them pass on. She doesn’t hate her gift and welcomes her ability to help those souls that need her but it does make having a relationship a definite no-win situation, after all what man wants to be with a woman who sees ghosts and it was a lesson, she learned the hard way. In all her time helping the departed she had one failure, a failure that is suddenly haunting her in the form of a rotting, albino squirrel yelling that the witch has to die.
Jonnie Tollens is a rock star who made the mistake of thinking that a promise of eternal youth would be
the answer to all his problems but he never took into consideration the side effects, side effects that turned him into a vampire. It has been twenty-years since he went through the procedure and he is still learning what he is capable of. His secret and the constant need to have his blood removed and replaced has finally brought him to the decision that death is the answer where once youth was. He is well aware of Eve’s gift of helping the dead move on and now he hopes she will be able to help him, the undead move on.
When Eve finds Jonnie standing on her porch begging for help, she knows that she can’t turn her back on him, she will not allow herself to suffer another failure. The journey for answers to Jonnie’s vampirism gives Eve hope that her failure with a girl named Lacey can also be rectified. While looking for answers discovering who is behind these experiments Eve and Jonnie find themselves getting close both of them troubled and finding comfort with each other.
The book has its share of horrific creatures both human and non-human, secrets, betrayals and surprises and sex. I did find the book slow moving at times and very descriptive which left me confused and lost but overall, it was a wonderful book and a new approach to vampires.
