The Fateful series by Cheri A Schmidt has a different and refreshing take on vampires. I like how the vampires are put together and describes. They are more human during the day and more of a bloodthirsty vampire by night.
Danielle is the main character and the one the books follow. This character is such a huge fan of Jane Austen that she herself is Jane Austen to a "T"! Danielle is a huge girly girl, but she took Karate since her parents made her to make her "stronger". She is a very complex character, but at the same time simple and easy to understand. One thing Danielle wanted when she moved to England was to meet her Mr. Darcy and she does...
Ethan (Danielle's Mr. Darcy) was a true gentleman despite the centuries he has lived through. His jealous and possessiveness come off as sweet and funny considering he can use a sword, and treat a girl like a lady. When these two met, it was like they both already knew they were in love.
I really enjoyed the fact this book had morals. Most books you read, the couple would sleep together after a little bit, but these two waited until marriage which is what both of them wanted. Ethan wanted this because of his centuries old age and Danielle wanted it because it meant something more to her. They took on present day issues along with paranormal ones. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to get into paranormal romances or is a Jane Austen fan. Of course anyone else would love this series as well.

Okay, here we go... I finally have a chance to read it. Eek, so excited to hear more from Ethan!!!
So, I did finish reading this book... And, I absolutely LOVED it... Ethan and Danielle still had their trials, but it was definitely worth it to get to their Forever. The ending was PERFECT!!! I don't think that it should have ended any other way...
I look forward to reading any other books that Cheri decides to write... I'm definitely a fan of her writing!!!
Would I recommend this book/series? YES!!!
I say, give it a try... It's definitely worth it...

This is the third book in the Fateful series. I'm giving this 3 1/2 stars. The third book sort of dragged for me. I felt trapped just like Danielle waiting for something to happen when they were on the island. There were also a few parts that I thought were kind of rushed and glossed over a bit.
I was really intrigued with the other magical creatures introduced and hope that Ms. Schmidt decides to develop more with those characters, especially the mermaids. I loved the ending and the afterward but, wished it could have been even longer. I really like this writer and am looking forward to reading more of her books.
