Through A Crimson Veil By Patti O'shea By kristyh on Dec 14, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

This book was very interesting. Once I started reading it I could not put it down. This book is part of a Crimson series that is made up of different authors. I have not really been able to figure out the series order yet. This is the first book I have read by this author, but I will definitely be on the look out for more.

The description on the back of the book reads as follows:

Los Angeles. Once, it was the City of Angels. Now, it's Crimson City, whose inhabitants know nothing of Heaven. The tentative peace between the species-werewolf, vampire, human-teeters on the brink of collapse. Sides are being chosen. Yet the peril is greater than any imagine. There is a power here that longs for release, an ancient darkness held captive too long. Below, beneath, beyond, it seethes. And there are those who would see it freed.

Mika herself seeks freedom. She's come to Crimson City looking for the key. But that key's keeper is a killer, an outsider, a mercenary with a poisoned past. To her kind, he has meant only death. No matter that Conor McCabe's pale green eyes hold a hint of lust, the glint of a bond never to be broken; the path ahead lies in shadow. In a city like this, death can come by fire or fang, by claw or kiss. And the moment of truth must come...Through a Crimson Veil.

My Thoughts: I loved the action and paranormal romance mixed throughout this book. I liked the book even better because the storyline was actually descent! Sure it was a far fetched story, but it was not done in a cheesy way. The only thing I did not like was the cover of the book. It seems kind of cartoonish. Mika is a very aggressive character, a couple of times she was annoying but overall I liked her. Conor is not a piece with his heritage, he is your basic irresistable bad boy. They were a perfect match for each other. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes paranormal romance books.
