The Nightslayer by Zoe Forward -a Review
Description:
A prophesy prohibiting him from biting her… and one hot connection that can’t be denied…
Gemma Leight doesn’t believe in magic, not after years of witnessing senseless tragedy as an ER nurse. But the sexy vampire anti-hero in his medievalesque TV show speaks to her. As in, he said her name while looking at her. Just when she’s convinced she hallucinated the whole thing, she gets sucked into the TV.
For over a century, Skarde Blackmann has roamed as a hunter-for-hire against evil creatures. The moment he begins to believe the prophesy about him is bogus, Gemma comes through a mirror. HIs life depends on it. One slip up, one bite to the sassy woman who makes him laugh, and she’ll become a vampire like him and condemn his soul to damnation. Not a problem. Until he has no choice.
Review:
The Nightslayer by Zoe Forward is a stand-alone novel. We meet Gemma Leight, our heroine, an ER nurse, who is tired of seeing terrible tragedies over the years. She has a witch friend, Val, who is always there for her, including giving her some potions. Gemma goes home each night to watch TV, and comes across a show, with a hunk of a hero, and her rooting for him. The surprise comes when Gemma shouts to the TV for him to watch out from a possible attack, and he turns and hears her.
Skarde Blackman, our hero, is a vampire, who is sent to fight against evil witches/creatures. When Skarde turns around at the shout he heard, he sees Gemma and is immediately enthralled by her sexy beauty. Gemma thinks that Val gave her something that causes these hallucinations, until she is pulled into the TV/Mirror alongside Skarde. In a short time, both Gemma and Skarde are sexually attracted to each other, with their chemistry off the wall. Gemma learns that she is in another realm, meeting others along the way, (Cade, Skarde’s brother; VanClief, former friend and possible enemy, a dwarf, with magic ability). Though she knows he is a Vampire, he protects her and promises he will not bite her, and after switching between portals, Gemma, despite the danger, wants to stay with Skarde. He worries that she is not safe, especially with a prophecy that may revolve around both of them.
What follows is an exciting, action filled story that holds our attention throughout, and the relationship between Gemma and Skarde is wild and sexy. To say too much more would be spoilers. Will Gemma survive the attempts from those who want to kill her for the prophecy? Will Skarde push Gemma away in order to keep her safe? You will need to read this book to find out.
The Nightslayer was a fun read, and very well written by Zoe Forward. I suggest you read The Nightslayer.
