Kiss of Crimson by Lara Adrian

5.0

Loved this book! I really liked the first Midnight Breed, but this one I LOVED! The main reason being that I truly BELIEVED in Dante and Tess' relationship. Adrian really managed to build it up in a realistic and romantic way.

Dante was so gentle and caring towards her. I thought it was so cute that he went out and bought a dog just to have something more to see her for. He was just so head over heals for her and it felt real.

Although I am still not as connected to the Midnight Breed warriors as I am with the Black Dagger Brotherhood warriors, they are really growing on me.

I was a bit sad that Ben ended up being a Minion. Even though him and Tess were obviously not meant for each other because she was meant Dante, he was a good guy in the beginning. I was hoping that somehow he'd be the Butch (from BDB) of this story or something at first. But, oh well.

I am also sad about what happened with Chase. I was sort of hoping that him and Elise would be able to end up together because he obviously cares very much for her. But as I see it, from the description of the next book, it looks like she's going to end up with Tegan. I'm excited to hear about their story, but I am sad for Chase, he deserved better I think. I hope he doesn't end up an evil character in the future books because I like him.

I also think that Tess' gift is so cool! I can't wait to see how it's used in the future. I think she will for sure finish healing Rio so he can get back to the field. It's going to be cool to see what happens with that.

With that being said, I'm onto the next one!
