Jessa Bellamy is at it again, that is according to her employees and after finding out yet another secret she is not saying anything of how she does it, because she is carrying her own secret known as shadowlight and she is not willing to give up her secret for anything. Jessa is one of those gifted - and her skill is in her hands, with one touch she is able to see the darkest secret of anyone. This comes in handy in her professional life as a background checker of people who are hired into allAlright. Even though this book is marketed as the first of a series that is separate from the Darkyn, I believe that is false advertising.

I got my Lynn Viehl fix! I miss the fangs, I admit. Where the hunger, the primal instincts, of my vampires and werewolves? Waxing poetic, LOL.I liked the scenes starring GenHance, the shady genetics corp, à la science and lab thrillers like Paycheck , if it were good, with monsters. What can I say, I'm a science nerd. Readers of Viehl's Darkyn series will be happy to see edible ex-assassin and vampire lord Lucan, fan favorite, and his mate, ex-homicide detective, Samantha. I loved the hunting
This decade has seen the rise of the vampire novel, thanks in no small part to the colossal success of Stephanie Meyers Twilight series. One of the more popular novelists in the supernatural romance/thriller genre has been Lynn Viehl. Her Darkyn series has produced several trips to the New York Times bestseller list for trade paperbacks and created a legion of fans. Viehls newest novel Shadowlight, begins her newest series the Kyndred a spin-off of her Darkyn novels.I had some problems with
