First off The Taker is a large book with 450 pages which I did think was a bit daunting when I started reading it. With a blend of historical romance, paranormal and some sexual content.
The book starts off with Dr Luke Findley at work in the hospital when Lanore is brought in covered in blood but also a murder suspect.
The book then goes back in time and Lanore is telling Luke her story of her life from a little girl, to being immortal and being 200 years old!
During the time Lanore is telling Luke about her past she also talks about the past of another person who made her immortal. Every so often the book jumped back into the present.
Lanore was in love a boy named Jonathan the most handsome boy in the world in her eyes. She would do anything for him, to be with him for him to love her like she loved him.
The Taker was very sad, evil in places , spellbinding and heart wrenching there were a lot of surprises along the way.
I am not usually one for historical type books but as this had other elements in it too it was AMAZING. It was well written, kept me wanting more and after reading all the good reviews on it before has it didn’t let me down at all.
