Great 6 book series that a well-rounded story that ends when it is logical to end.
If you want to read about sex, then read a series about a succubus!

AUDIOBOOK IS FANTASTIC!! CAUTION..LISTENING WHILE DRIVING CAN BE HAZARDOUS.

The series gets better as it progresses with the characters growing and having realistic thought processes. The action is great and the story is not your typical urban fantasy.

GOOD IN AUDIOBOOK FORMAT!

Well written love story with vampires, witches, science, history and DNA. A little bit everyone with a brain cell.

AUDIOBOOK IS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!

Superbly written post apocalytic series with three dimensional, engaging characters, including angels. Characters evolve, evil is combated, relationships develop in all their complexity and redemption is possible.
