Some days, a girl just can’t catch a break…

…especially when the girl in question is Georgina Kincaid, a shape-shifting succubus. First there’s her relationship with gorgeous bestselling writer Seth Mortensen, which is unsatisfying on a number of levels.

Then there are the dreams. Someone, or something, is preying on Georgina at night, draining her energy, and supplying eerie visions of her future. Georgina seeks answers from Dante, a dream interpreter with ties to the underworld, but his flirtatious charm only leaves her more confused. Now Georgina faces a double challenge—rein in her out-of-control love life, and go toe-to-toe with an enemy capable of wreaking serious havoc among mankind. Otherwise, Georgina, and the entire mortal world, may never sleep easy again…

Darker than the first two
Although this book was a bit darker than the previous two succubus books, I still liked it. A lot.

Seth and Georgina break up, which in my opinion is not a bad thing at all. Of course I never was a big fan of Seth. He and Georgina just didn't seem to fit together. There were too many things she couldn't share with him, because they made him uncomfortable - and I'm not just talking about the sex with other men. He could never fully accept who she was, with both mortal and immortal baggage abundance. so although I hope things begin clearing up for her in the next book, I like where this book is going; Away from Seth, who made her feel inferior and towards whoever the man in the dream is (Not Seth I hope).

Now that I got that off my chest; The only thing I really missed in this book was more of Carter. I have to admit that he is my favourite character, and I hope to see much more of him in future books. There never was a cooler angel.

Gets better every time!
I think with every book, Richelle Mead just gets better and better. The characters have more depth to them and in this book some behave in ways you never would have thought possible and yet it still makes sense for them to have done what they did. My fave character is Carter and would like to see more of him in the next book. Keep up the great work Richelle!

well that was depressing
all i can say is has richelle mead recently broke up with someone???? that was thoroughly depressing. I cannot believe you destroyed such a clever and unusual relationship. The angst was overpowering and from the sneak preview of the next book it doesn't stop with this one. Its like richard and anita all over again ( laurell k hamilton books). These are called paranormal romance for a reason!! And there is no way Seth would have ever done that.
