Darkened Days

The Firsts, Book 4

By: C.L. Quinn

Narrated by: Pyper Down

Jacob had searched for her for two months. Taken by rogue vampires, Starla had disappeared without a trace. An innocent, sweet girl from a remote Alaskan town, the human friend of a powerful first blood vampire, she had no idea the vampire world existed. Now, a lead sends him to Paris, to a cadre of young vampires that run the city at night, breaking rules and risking the vampire community's sacred covenant for secrecy.

When he finds her, she's been changed. She's vampire now. He barely recognizes the angry, oversexed girl as the one he'd met briefly and saved just months earlier. It doesn't help that she turns him on like none of the beautiful experienced vampires he's always preferred.

Paris at night is gorgeous, the city of love, a place to make love and be made love to. But not for Jacob, who wants to save this lost girl, and ends up on the wrong side of justice.

Jacob and Starla's story starts in southern France and ends in South Africa, as a young newly “made” vampire learns how to accept who and what she is now, to understand what may be the greatest gift of her life. To find out that love can come in the most unlikely ways while life happens regardless of choices made. That sometimes destiny really is written in the stars.

This story is beautiful on its own, but continues the series of first blood vampires started in Forbidden Days. If you enjoy Starla and Jacob's story, try the other three books in this series to see where it all began.

This book had so much emotion in it!! The lives of these amazing people are truly changing!! I CAN NOT WAIT for the next book!! Narrator Pyper Down is on my short list of favorite's!!

Best in the series so far can't wait till the net one comes out
These stories are getting better and better on to Cohen's story

Nice bridge to future stories

I enjoy the core characters. Author is lovely but the baby obsession is distracting.

MY FOURTH FIX OF THIS GREAT VAMPIRE SERIES

This is a great vampire series to follow…. each book has it's own storyline but there is a continuation of a secondary storyline running through them and the tension is building. So, to get the history/backstory of the Firsts (original vamps who have added abilities, super-strong plus more) and to get the most from this series, IMHO, it would be best to start with book 1.

Jacob is on the hunt for Starla who's gone missing after he gave her only enough blood to heal her injuries and the hunt takes him around the world following some newly made vampires that are getting a bad reputation. But is Starla amongst them, who's turned her and why? It's an exciting plot with lots of drama, romance, sex and adventure because Jacob's journey hits some problems when he discovers Amas, who is one of the Firsts, has his fangs ready and plans for the missing Starla.

Pyper Down did a great job narrating this as it had lots of different characters, in lots of different situations with varying emotions and she did them all with ease.

Worth a credit? If you're like me a love a good PNR with drool-worthy vamps then it has to be a YES.

Starla you go girl,

This was a good addition to the series. Very quick read with another crazy female. I can,t wait hear the next book in the series. I love following these characters.
