I went through a stage where I was obsessed with Twilight and all things vampire, as I’m sure many girls did in their teenage years, so when I received this novel for Christmas I thought I would give it a chance and read it. Being with Edythe puts Beau in immediate danger and some difficult decisions need to be made. He later finds out that her and her family are vampires.
