Immortals After Dark – Cannonball Read 17

Honestly, I don’t know where to start.

The Warlord Wants Forever by Kresley Cole

That’s a lie. I know exactly where I should start. Seventh Grade, that’s where. It was the 1988-89 school year. I was attending a magnet school in New Orleans that went 7th-12th grade. It looked like a gothic art deco birthday cake surrounded by live oak trees. There was even a Catholic girls school across the street. Of course it was unairconditioned – the terrazzo floors were literally slimy much of the year. I’m not sure it gets much more New Orleans than that school. […]

A supernatural Romancing the Stone

Pleasure of a Dark Prince by Kresley Cole

I’m still working through the Immortals After Dark series from Kresley Cole. This series thrives on both the “enemies to lovers” and “fated mates” tropes. Two supernatural beings have a violent encounter, then spend the rest of the book fighting the passion between them. It can be formulaic, but always entertaining and often comforting. Never difficult to finish. Pleasure of a Dark Prince is the 8th book since the first novella, but the 11th novel that I’ve read from Cole. We go deep into the […]

A moody Vampire falls in love with an Ice Fey-Valkyrie

Untouchable (Immortals After Dark Book 7) by Kresley Cole

I’m still deep into the Immortals After Dark series. I absolutely breezed through the four books featuring the brothers Wroth. Bless Robert Petkoff and his gripping narration. I really feel like all these characters are distinct when listening. The Wroths are from Eastern Europe. They were turned vampires during a deadly war. Each brother broods in his own way. Untouchable, which is part of the anthology Deep Kiss of Winter, is the seventh book that focuses on Murdoch Wroth. He seems to be the most dependable […]

Fated mates with dark needs and desires

Dark Needs at Night's Edge by Kresley Cole

Dark Desires After Dusk by Kresley Cole

Kiss of a Demon King by Kresley Cole

I keep trucking along with the Immortals After Dark novels where Kresley Cole pairs supernatural fated mates. The paranormal universe continues to expand with books 5, 6 and 7 focusing on new characters who were hinted at in previous books. Picking up with the next book in line, Dark Needs at Night’s Edge takes us back to New Orleans to meet Conrad Wroth, the long-lost vampire brother to Sebastian and Nikolai who we meet in the previous books. Conrad is deranged from drinking the blood […]

Immortal Enemies to Fated Lovers

The Warlord Wants Forever by Kresley Cole

Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night by Kresley Cole

I’m still working my way through Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark series. I’ve read her several of her books for previous Cannonball Read challenges. The author finds a way to pair up the most interesting supernatural creatures. Many of her books deal with fated mates, but often the alpha male attempts to use fate as an excuse to skip courtship. The female rarely finds this acceptable and a sexy and dangerous chase typically ensues. For CBR11, I decided to start at the very beginning with […]

Girl vampire meets dangerous demon-fairy sex assassin

I had planned on reading all the Immortals After Dark books by Kresley Cole in order. But when I noticed Sweet Ruin was a standalone book, I skipped ahead to Book 16. This romantic tale didn’t start with a battle or instant attraction. Instead, we meet our heroine, Josephine (Jo for short), a homeless teen taking care of her baby brother, Thaddeus, in Texas. They hide out in the local public library during the day living off the kindness of the librarian. The foster system failed them. […]

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.

Roland of Gilead on How can you give us the gift of a crazy character named Rando Thoughtful and then just as suddenly take that gift away? We need to talk, Uncle Stevie.I came across this randomly years after it was written because I was searching "Random Thoughtful. But I have the...
Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
