      WHEN DARKNESS FALLS is the second story in Shannon Drake's vampire series. Characters from the first book make an appearance in this book, but this story does stand alone. The story begins in my favorite place in the world, Scotland, where the heroine, Jade MacGregor, is on a tour of a cemetary. The tour goes horribly wrong when the group is attacked by vampires. Jade is saved by a mysterious stranger and the police have a hard time believing Jade's tale. Fast forward one year later to New Orleans and Jade finds herself being hunted by the evil that she escaped from and the mysterious stranger again makes an appearance.
      I honestly could not put this book down and found myself grabbing every spare moment I had to read, even if it was only a paragraph. Drake does an excellent job of weaving the past and present together to explain the history of the evil and the role the hero, Lucian DeVeau, plays in it. I liked Jade, though there are a few of those "too stupid to live" moments where she finds herself in mortal danger as a result of poor judgment. The supporting cast of characters were fantastic as well and I hope Rick Beaudreaux gets his own story. Sophia and Darian were great villains that you will despise but will enjoy finding out what they do next.
    • 2/5
      This second book in Shannon Drake’s vampire series was really quite disappointing. In addition to the myriad spelling, grammar and punctuation mistakes, the plot and characters were very lacking. My copy is not even an ARC, so I was completely mystified as to why the publishing company would allow this manuscript to be sold in this condition. Lucian, self-proclaimed “king of the vampires” is the hero of this tale, doing battle against an ancient foe that seems too powerful to defeat. Fortunately Drake has changed her vampire rules a little from the first book in order to make this villain vanquishable, otherwise this might not have turned out so well. As before random characters are convieniently the reincarnations of past friends, so much so that when someone says, “I feel like I’ve met you before” the reader starts trying to think of who they must have once been. The narrative is slow-going with several little subplots that seem like excuses to showcase vampire cruelty to sub-characters without putting main characters in any danger. Then, despite that, main characters actually do find themselves in peril, except that the rules have changed, so they can recover. Whatever.The book comes to its climax, a big show-down in a grave yard, but is over almost before it begins. Yay, the good guys win, the end. The reader is left going, “what just happened?” and wondering if it’s even really over. Drake might want to leave some ambiguity, intending to resurrect this villain, which she might actually need to do because I know this series continues and Sophia seems like a hard one to top. However, it’s just really poorly done and doesn’t feel like a payoff at all for slogging through this lame book.I really wanted to like this book. I tried so hard. Honestly, though, I couldn’t bring myself to care. I do have to give it points for referencing Buffy the Vampire Slayer overtly, but I feel dirty about it because quite frankly a lot of the story feels like it was cribbed from episodes of Buffy. Specifically, her war with Spike and Drusilla.

      The 2nd in a series of romantic vampire books. As great as the first. Will make you affraid to ever be in a cemetery at midnight. Wonderfully chilling.
