Immortal Ever After (Argeneau, #18)

by Lynsay Sands

Paula Christensen (Narrator)

Valerie never gave much thought to the legends of vampires. That is, until she's kidnapped by a fang-wielding psychopath and kept hostage in an underground dungeon with six other female-dining companions. Able to escape using her martial art skills and her wits, she's picked up by the Argeneau rescue team - and the sexy Anders - only to discover that her captor got away ... and is on the hunt again.

When Anders discovers Valerie battered and bruised under a bush, he's not expecting to meet someone capable of defending herself against a vampire attack - or his psychic influence. Immediately taken by this fierce beauty, he's determined to find the vamp responsible for her abuse ... and make him pay.

SO, yeah, I'm really enjoying the books I'm reading in this series!!

They are a lot of fun, the characters are just all around good guys and the girls are fierce and strong, and that's always a good recipe.

This one focuses on Andres (God almighty I can't even think his first name without laughing) and Valerie.

Andres is an enforcer, a pretty old one at that. He has a really interesting backstory that I thought will be more important to the general plot but really wasn't. He's thoughtful, occasionally kind of of dorky (I mean... the book part was Dork™), and sweet. His thoughts were REALLY cheesy at points, but I guess that works with the strong silent types.

Valerie is a kick-ass vet who never waits around for everyone else to save her. She starts the book by stabbing one of her kidnappers, calling the police to save her and the other kidnapped women and diving out of a window to escape. KICK ASS I tell you. She's also a great cook, a loyal friend and a (mostly) rational person who is willing to give people chances to talk. I love her! Though I DID want her and Andres to pop back to her old life for a moment so Larry could see how very happy she is right now and maybe realize she has always been out of his league lol

(In general, in the two books I've read in the series, I wasn't really satisfied by the ending and wanted to see more scenes between out mains before the book ended *the song "you don't always get what you want" plays in the distance*).

Also, I enjoyed the side characters and I would love to read their stories one day! Fingers crossed that they'll be on kindle sale soon ('cause there are too many books to purchase them all full price haha)
