Darker than Night by Kim Lenox

I have the very great pleasure of knowing Kim Lenox, and I can say with all honesty that she is one of the nicest people. Ever! On top of that, she’s an incredible writer.


I have completely fallen in love with her Shadow Guards series. I’ve devoured each and every one of the books. I just finished reading Darker than Night and I was *blown away*.


DarkerThanNight-1


I love historical and paranormal romance and Kim blends them both seamlessly. She takes us to the majesty of Victorian England and delivers pure evil in the form of some of history’s most atrocious villains.


The Shadow Guards are a mysterious order of immortals entrusted with the destiny of the living. Selene, the heroine and daughter of Cleopatra, is a Reclaimer. She finds the souls of the most wicked and depraved of earth’s mortals and ends them.

Lord Rourke Avenage, the Ravenmaster, is head of the Ravens, warriors who are entrusted to guard England’s monarchy.

Both have been immortal for centuries, and both have hardened their hearts over time. Yet, when cut off from the ranks of the other Shadow Guards, the two have only each other to trust when an ancient enemy comes to call.


I was rivited with every page. Kim does a superb job of building the sexual tension until I was begging for Selene and Rourke to give in to each other. I found Selene quite interesting when I first met her in book one Night Falls Darkly and then again when her twin brother, Marcus’ book, So Still the Night.

I knew Selene would get her own book, and being such a powerful woman, she needed a certain type of man to stand beside her. Kim gave us that with Avenage.

Kim, I have two things to say:

1. I want my own Ravenmaster, please.
2. There had better be more Shadow Guard books or I’m going to come hunt you down. :-D


hugs,
