Growing up poor on New Chicago’s meanest streets, Ava Sans had two options: be the predator or be the prey. No contest. Now, working for Alien Investigation and Removal, she’s been ordered to capture the biggest, baddest warrior of all—a vampire too beautiful to be real, with the ability to manipulate time. Once the leader of the entire vampire army, McKell has been deemed savage and unstable, spurned even by his own kind.
To McKell, humans should be nothing more than sustenance. Yet the petite, golden-skinned Ava is a fascinating contradiction—vicious yet witty, strong yet vulnerable, lethal but fiercely loyal. Against his better judgment, McKell craves that loyalty, and much more. When the chase leads to seduction, McKell and Ava will race to discover the truth about his past. But the answers will come at a price, even for a woman who thought she had nothing left to lose. . . .
Awesomeness:
One of Ava’s requirements for a man had been “rich”. “I want enough money to last an eternity making this woman happy.”
“So I’m your sugar daddy now?”
My Thoughts
I officially have new love for all things Gena Showalter. Ecstasy in Darkness is a must read. The story is full of the same humor and action that I’ve come to love with each Alien Huntress book that I have read.
All the characters are over the top funny. I especially loved the characters of Ava and Noelle. They bicker and call each names but really are the best friends. They love and support each other like sisters and get a tad violent with anyone that crosses them.
I also loved the sexy and dysfunctional relationship between Ava and McKell. Although they were hot for each other, Ava just couldn’t seem to stop beating up on him. Besides being Ava’s enemy, McKell was suppose to be the scariest of all vampires but he turned out to be a simple man in awe of his mate. He was so eager to take any beating she dished out just as long as she kissed it and made it better.
The story was easy to follow and I just couldn’t stop cracking up at the dialogue. Although the book was long as hell, it never got boring. There was always action, crazy moments, and enough romance to keep me turning pages.
Overall, I would recommend this book. Gena Showalter’s Alien Huntress series gets better with each installment. Ecstasy In Darkness was funny as hell and McKell can bite me anytime -just as long as Ava doesn’t kick my ass.
