Synopsis
One woman, torn between warring halves of a shattered psyche. Two men, determined to possess her. An enmity so deep, it has the power to destroy. In a world of passion, heartbreak, and revenge, boundaries will be crossed, but one question remains. How far will each go for redemption?
As prophesied heiress to the Cacciatori vampire dynasty, Kate Murdock is destined to free her kind from the curse of darkness. But Kate wants no part of her dark heritage. Her resistance to the darkness within divides her consciousness, the two halves of her mind battling for control. Kate wants nothing more than to redeem herself of past transgressions and to build a life with the man she loves. But the demon within her grows stronger everyday--- and she’s out for blood.
Werewolf Dominic Ridolfi is an exiled traitor, disavowed for his love of the vampire heiress. Though hunted by vampires and werewolves alike, Dominic and Kate carve out a life together on the run. Dominic will stop at nothing to protect his mate from their world, but remains powerless to protect her from the darkness within. Will his love for the Cacciatori heiress be enough to redeem their souls? Or will darkness consume them both?
Captain of the vampire royal guard, Alexander Ambrogio, had the world at his feet and the Cacciatori heiress on his arm. Until one misjudgment took it all away. Renounced for his failure to protect his charge, Alexander is offered a final chance for redemption--- return the missing heiress alive and all will be forgiven. His resolve to restore Kate to her rightful place is surpassed only by his hunger for vengeance against the werewolf who stole her.
Redemption is coming…
Iva's Review
I must say Dark Redemption has been one of the books I have been sweating on since reading Fall of Darkness and I wasn't disappointed.
As the second book in "The Chronicles of Darkness" the storyline picks up where it left off in "The Fall of Darkness" well. The opening scene gives the reader a glimpse into the darker part of Alexander's thoughts, and ties in well with the title. We also get a good refresher on how deeply and irrevocably in love Dominic and Kate are and why they are currently on the run from both the wolves and vampires. The characters are consistent from the first book, although Alexander's true nature is more exposed in this book.
Elle Bright has a writing style that draws a reader in. Her prose and style makes the story take hold of the reader's mind and gives the romance in the story - life.
The pace of the book is good and I was very quickly drawn into the story. The two perspectives of both Kate and Dominic work well and the transitions between the two are once again flawless.
Minor characters help propel the story onwards and there are some scenes that not only emphasis the true love of Dominic and Kate, but also have you hoping for a novella or a spin off series.
The ending to this book was not at all what I was expecting, but I have to say I loved it as it opens up a whole lot of possibilities due to some of the unexplored paranormal aspects Elle has been developing throughout the first two books.
Overall I think Dark Redemption is a fantastic read. I was very quickly drawn into the story and didn't want to put it down. The characters are consistent with the first book, but have evolved enough that the story continues to move forward. The quality of writing is superb, and I'm already anticipating the next book.
