Dance with the Devil (Dark-Hunter, Book 4)

By Sherrilyn Kenyon

Zarek's Point of View:

Dark-Hunter: A soulless guardian who stands between mankind and those who would see mankind destroyed. Yeah, right. The only part of that Code of Honor I got was eternity and solitude.

Insanity: A condition many say I suffer from after being alone for so long. But I don't suffer from my insanity-I enjoy every minute of it.

Trust: I can't trust anyone...not even myself. The only thing I trust in is my ability to do the wrong thing in any situation and to hurt anyone who gets in my way.

Truth: I endured a lifetime as a Roman slave, and 900 years as an exiled Dark-Hunter. Now I'm tired of enduring. I want the truth about what happened the night I was exiled-I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Astrid (Greek, meaning star): An exceptional woman who can see straight to the truth. Brave and strong, she is a point of light in the darkness. She touches me and I tremble. She smiles and my cold heart shatters.

Zarek: They say even the most damned man can be forgiven. I never believed that until the night Astrid opened her door to me and made this feral beast want to be human again. Made me want to love and be loved. But how can an ex-slave whose soul is owned by a Greek goddess ever dream of touching, let alone holding, a fiery star?

2nd time read - Loved It! The 2 MC really draw you in especially Zarek. There was lots of action, heartbreak and love. Simi, oh the Simi....she was probably the funniest part of the book and very entertaining. The "real." love making scene was very well done, and one of my favorites in the book...they were very swoony and heart melting. Loved the ending.

I would recommend this book and series.

All Caught Up!

While I realize that I am a bit late in reading these books, I found this one to be the best so far! I was completely emotionally attached to Zarek and found myself wanting to "kill" his father and brothers and the whole damn town where he grew up. Yes, I shed a few tears. How much can one person take? So, when Zarek met Astrid, the blind nymph, and began to actually care about her, I was all caught up in the story and found myself really pulling for these two. For me, this was an excellent story and was even better because it reveals a little more about Ash (my favorite character). This is a MUST READ for me! I'm sure I will read it again.
