Series: Die for Me #2
**Potential spoilers for Book 1! Read at your own risk**
The revenants of Paris have welcomed Kate among them, but she still feels like an outsider. Especially when snobby ancient revenants Arthur and Violette arrive to deal with the mysteriously quiet numa. At least Kate has Vincent -- but now he's keeping secrets too. What will it take for their impossible love to work?
This series... paranormal romance done right. I love the way Kate and Vincent's relationship works. It's a very normal, healthy, human relationship, focusing on more aspects of the relationship than just "he's undead, she's alive." (Although yeah, that's there too.) It's a steamy romance but the characters are about so much more than being in a paranormal romance. I don't feel like I'm saying this well. Point is, yes good romance.
Also: yes good fantasy. Loving the whole revenants deal, it's not an idea you see explored in a lot of modern fantasy, and it's always fun to get daylight interaction with characters from thousands of years ago. There's a little bit of middle-book syndrome going on, but I thoroughly enjoyed the story and characters and look forward to reading the third one!
