DDADDevon's Review of Dark Desires After Dusk (Immortals After Dark, Book 5) by Kresley Cole
Paranormal Romance released by Pocket 20 May 08

With last month's release of Dark Needs at Night's Edge, Kresley Cole went from a pretty good author of paranormals, to a must read-OMG-when's the next book-gimme now (here's my review). Luckily, the wait wasn't too long, and a matter of weeks later I had Dark Desires After Dusk in my hot little hands. And it has only cemented my newfound worship. The two books are very different in tone and character, but equally sexy, romantic and engrossing. You have been forewarned: this is going to be a gushing, fangirly review.

Contemporary Paranormal Romance released by Pocket on 20 May 08

I was excited about the newest installment in the Immortals After Dark (IAD) series, and after I've read it, I know it was for good reason. Dark Desires gives us our first demon hero, and he's definitely able to hold his own. This was a fun new story that is a great continuation of the series.

Review: Dark Needs at Night’s Edge by Kresley ColeLiviania's review of Dark Needs at Night’s Edge (Immortals After Dark, Book 4) by Kresley Cole
Paranormal Romance released by Pocket 1 Apr 08

I started Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark with this one, and I believe it is my favorite. This romance focuses on the youngest of the Wroth brothers, the insane Conrad, and Néomi, a dead human. Yes, it is a bit of a logistical nightmare. On the other hand, it gives the characters time to talk and develop a strong emotional relationship before they have sex.

Paranormal romance anthology released by Pocket 7 Feb 06

I read this book, because TGTBTU offered a contest about it, and I discovered that Kresley Cole had her introductory story of the Immortals After Dark series published in the anthology. I've been following the series, and knew I had to get my hands on the story that "started it all."

Review: A Hunger Like No Other by Kresley ColeLiviania's review of A Hunger Like No Other (Immortals After Dark, Book 1) by Kresley Cole
Paranormal Romance released by Pocket Star Books 28 Mar 06

Kresley Cole’s popular Immortals After Dark series begins with A Hunger Like No Other. The book opens as Lachlain, King of the Lykae, escapes a torture chamber to pursue the scent of his mate. He’s waited centuries for her to appear. His mate, to his displeasure, turns out to be recent Tulane grad Emmaline Troy, a half-vampire, half-valkyrie. She’s a bit of a coward instead of the warrior she has the potential to be, and Lachlain scares her when he abducts her in Paris.

Dark Desires After Dusk by Kresley ColeLiviania's review of Dark Desires After Dusk by Kresley Cole
Paranormal Romance released from Pocket 20 May 08

Kresley Cole began setting the stage for Dark Desires After Dusk during Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night.  Those teasing glimpses of Cade's character hold nothing to his full story.  Pornophile, hard drinking, fast driving rage demon Cadeon the Kingmaker has it bad for repressed mathematics professor/student Holly Ashwin.  Cole writes it so well they don't even seem like an odd couple.

Book CoverLiviania's guest review of Wicked Deeds on a Winter’s Night (Immortals After Dark, Book 3) by Kresley Cole
Paranormal romance released by Pocket Star 1 Oct 07

Bowen MacRieve, who got the shaft in the second novel is the hero of the third book in the Immortals After Dark series. Wicked Deeds on a Winter’s Night begins during the events of No Rest for the Wicked. Bowen traps the witch Mariketa, along with two demons and three witches, in the tomb of the incubi. He realizes too late that the six could not get out on their own and Mariketa now has good reason to hate him. Yet he reacts as if she is his mate; impossible, since his mate Mariah died two centuries ago. Read more

Paranormal romance released by Pocket Star Oct 07

Book three of the Immortals After Dark series was very enjoyable. Wicked Deeds actually happens while much of No Rest is taking place, and you have to feel bad for Bowen. I think a lot of what happens to him is downplayed - after all, he's a tough Lykae - one who would have been king-so what does he need with half his face? Honestly. It's fine it got blown off. Gah.

I heard a lot of good things about Kresley Cole, and decided to hunt up her backlist, especially because I had her new book coming to me. I don't mind reading books in a series out of order (blasphemous!) but I prefer not to if I can help it.
