Deidre Knight

I think all my friends read this years ago but I held back because I don't like first person present tense. But I'm trying to get over that since so much is written in that (totally unnecessary) tense nowadays that I have to or miss out. For the most part it wasn't too jarring. So on to the actual story

I'm giving this one 3 stars as a romance because I felt like the major romance was between the hero and his dead lover rather than him and the heroine.

As you can see, I didn't make much progress with this book. Why? The main character in Ever Night was abducted by horrible monsters and held against her will. She's brought before a terrifying and deadly creature, but all she can think about is how handsome he is. He threatened her and forced her to agree to something against her will, but all she wants to do is comment on how attractive his mouth is (or some other body part). Fuck. That. Shit. If someone abducts me and I see freaking monsters for the first time in my life, someone's pretty face isn't even going to register in my brain. I definitely wouldn't be considering what it would be like to have sex with them, ugh. On the Hunt wasn't for me, but I can only speak for the first book since I didn't get to the others.
