DARK DESIRES by Claire Marta
The Hunter Chronicles, Book #2
Genre: Paranormal Romance
--SYNOPSIS--

Jasmine Hunter finds herself knee deep in a decadent vampire nest in Prague. A killer lurks the medieval city and is preying on blood donors who frequent the home of the local Vampire Mistress.

With her teammates from Scotland Yard in tow Jasmine, must attempt to discover the murderer's identity.

But will things go to plan? Sex dungeons, submissive human pets, and sexy dominant males are a lot for a rookie to cope with.

Especially when Eric is the last person she expects to see…

Requested to assist with the hunt for a vicious serial killer by an old friend, Eric is left speechless to find Jasmine offering herself up as food. The attraction between them is burning as red hot as before, and his lust for the feisty female is just as deep.

More disturbing, his emotions which he normally has leashed, once more slip in her presence. Yet this time they feel different. Darker, primal, and savage yet Eric cannot explain why. The insidious pull of the other predators around him is also more than a sweet temptation he finds himself unable to resist.

Combining forces, Jasmine and Eric must play the parts of Master and submissive.

But nothing is as it seems.

Can they work out who the killer is in a household full of deception and secrets before it is too late? Or will a price be paid in blood….

*** 18 & over only. Contains sexual scenes, light BDSM, sex and some violence. ***

REVIEW

Wow!What an explosive sequel to Frostbite!If you loved Frostbite, then you will enjoy this one even more.Trust me, Dark Desires was even better than the first book!

Dark Desires begins a few months after the events of Frostbite and this time Jasmine is in Prague!(love the country <3)
This is one of her important assignments where she has to go undercover in a vampire nest, and as a rookie she wants to prove herself.Some rogue vampire has been killing many blood donors of the vampires in the Prague nest.Jasmine and her teammates have to uncover the murderer's identity.
As she goes undercover as one of the donor girls with her friend Gemma, she finds out that Eric is also there in the nest and is working to find the killer.They have a steamy reunion ;)
Eric takes her under his protection and after resolving their issues about Eric leaving Jas in Paris abruptly after their one night together, they decide to work together to find the rogue.
They suspect that it is a ripper, since the attacks point towards a vampire that may have gone mad.
Eric and Jasmine rekindle their relationship and Jasmine has to play the role of his sub with Eric as the Master.But as the murders begin to escalate and it's a race against time to find the killer, will Jasmine be endangering her life along with her heart?

I loved the way the author has combined mystery,sensuality and romance.This book was so much more steamier than the first and so well done!There is just light BDSM not hardcore, if you're apprehensive about that.
I loved the introduction of Asier in this novel.Quite an intriguing character!I hope we see him in the next!I was so glad to see Twitch again!
The mystery really had me at the edge of my seat and kept me guessing till the end!
Though I loved the chemistry between Jas and Eric, I just hope their relationship develops further in the upcoming books.We didn't get much background on Eric beyond the basic details in these two books so I'm hoping we learn more about my favorite, sexy character.
Jasmine has grown so much over the course of the two books!I loved seeing her slowly develop her confidence and abilities!

The ending was awesome!(many might not agree with me)But I loved how Jasmine stood up for herself!Can't wait to see how Eric makes up for his stupidity in the end lol!I can understand his POV too since he is an old vampire after all, but he should have known how Jasmine would react when he said something like that *sigh*

Dear author if you're reading this, please release the next book soon!I can't wait to see where Jasmine and Eric go from here!! :D
