Book Review: Vampire Collection: Brink of Eternity and Embrace the Dark (Dawn of Ascension and Blood Rose Series Book 1) by Caris Roane

Vampire Collection: Brink of Eternity and Embrace the Dark (Dawn of Ascension and Blood Rose Series Book 1)
by Caris Roane
Length: 186 pages
Paranormal Romance
Welcome to Caris Roane's vampire collection, two very different novellas that track the journey of two powerful vampires. In entirely different ways, both BRINK OF ETERNITY and EMBRACE THE DARK, explore the sexy mystique of the warrior vampire, each over-burdened by the responsibilities of his job and in need of the love of a good woman.

BRINK OF ETERNITY follows the tradition of the Guardians of Ascension and introduces the Militia Warrior aspect of Second Earth. First published in July of 2011, the story features Warrior Gideon and his Mortal Earth lover, Elise Jordan, as she answers her call to ascension. BRINK OF ETERNITY launches a novella series called, Dawn of Ascension. The second novella, THE DARKENING, releases on Valentine’s Day, 2014. But the world is the same, and the Warriors of the Blood often show up as well as the magnificent Endelle.

EMBRACE THE DARK takes you into the world of the Blood Rose series, in which the blood-needs of a master vampire can only be met by one gifted woman. First published in May of 2012, EMBRACE THE DARK explores the Nine Realms of North America, a world inhabited not just by vampires, but by the fae, by charming trolls, and the evil Invictus pairs that prey on the weak of the realm. But ruling each realm, and more powerful than any other creature in the land, is a Mastyr Vampire. Our beleaguered Mastyr Vampire, Gerrod, suffers from chronic blood starvation and can only be sated by a phenomenon called a blood rose. But how can he accept Abigail as his blood rose, when she’s a mere human?

This is a fun box set of two novellas for a great price. If you're new to the Guaradians of Ascension series, then reading the tale included will give you a nice taste of what's in store. I'm a big fan of Caris and the sexy alpha warriors she's created. Their world is action packed, filled fill love and loss. Battles of epic proportions and steamy romance that heats up the pages. New and fresh, that's what you get with Caris. She's got a talent to write and works it like the best of them!

Embrace the Dark is another novella that takes the reader in to a darker realm of vampires and lore creatures. Written with twists and myths that pump some fresh blood into what can become a stagnate world. How many paranormal writers stretch their minds and come up with new and incredible characters? I'm not sure but I damn well know that Caris does! Hats and pants off to her for taking a big leap and letting readers hang on for the ride.

If you like paranormal romance with sexy men and their strong female counterparts, action, adventure, love and tenderness all mixed to a HEA beat...then grab this box set and dig your claws in!

Hi, Everyone! Caris Roane here! I’m a USA Today Bestselling Author and I write super-sexy paranormal romance fiction designed to be as much an adventure as a soul-satisfying experience. With every book I write, I try to give a taste of real life, despite the fact that I’m writing about hunky vampire warriors. You’ll come away engrossed in the lives of my vampires as they wage war, as they make love, and as they answer the tough questions of life in terms of purpose, eternity, and how to raise a family! I began my career with Kensington Publishing writing Regency Romance as Valerie King. In 2005, Romantic Times Magazine honored me with a career achievement award in Regency Romance. I’ve published fourteen paranormal novels to-date, some self-published and some for St. Martin’s Press! I’ve also branched out into Contemporary Romance with A SEDUCTIVE PROPOSITION!
