Secrets in the Shadows is the second installment in acclaimed author Jenna Black's Guardians of the Night paranormal romance series. Jules Gerard has always thought the vampire who betrayed and turned him was dead. But when he discovers that Ian Squires may still be alive and killing in Baltimore, Jules's long-dormant thirst for vengeance is reawakened. After Hannah Moore's fateful encounter with the Broad Street Banger, the petite PI has vowed to keep as far away from the Guardians of the Night as possible. But when her best friend and former business partner asks her to help save Jules from himself, Hannah reluctantly agrees to track Jules down and convince him to return to the Guardians. Jules doesn't want help from anybody, much less a stubborn, bossy mortal who doesn't seem to realize how much danger they're really in. Unfortunately, he soon discovers that Ian is far too powerful to take on alone. Caught in a deadly game that quickly spirals beyond his control, Jules must choose: Vengeance or love? Damnation or redemption? Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

" series.
Jules is a 100 year old vampire with temper tantrums worse than an adolescent facing puberty. Learning that his maker,whom he hates justifiably , is still alive or undead if you please; he decides to kill him.
He accompanied by Hana, a friend of an acquaintance, who is asked to baby sit his body during the day.
But of course Jules maker , who is plotting to become the new master of the city has counted on Jules revenge.
the plot , if you can call it that, is pretty simple and serves only to let Hana and Jules have sex in the hotel room. The author keeps reminding her readers not only once or twice ,but over and over , that Hana is courageous, though and clever and Jules an alpha male. A wasted effort as the readers learn that, Hana just has a big mouth , which she cannot keep closed under any circumstances , and she can operate a telephone and use the internet ! But then may be when this book was first published , these had been signs of high intellect!
Despite weak, almost none existence plot and even weaker character developments , I was rather amused by the unrealistic side charters, like very old master vampires who are not capable to put two and two together and even more by the strange twisted reaction of each and every character !
All things considered it isn't really a bad book but I cannot say that I am happy with my purchase.
If you are thinking about buying these series because you enjoy the "Morgan Kingsley " series ,I can only advice you to buy one volume at a time and see if you are happy with what you've got or not. (
