Review: Immortal by Morning

Immortal by Morning by Lynsay Sands
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I've always loved Ms. Sands' books about the Argeneau's and the immortals (never call them Vampires!). And this was no exception. I loved this book too. It had fewer amorous scenes than some of her past books, and I appreciated that. What did make me go from a 5-star rating to a 4-star rating was that the plot was a bit convoluted and came across as confusing. It was a bit slapdash with no true conclusion to Abril and Crispin's relationship.

I did love how Lucien got involved along wth many of the past male characters. Lilith the dog was the cherry on the sundae!

It's a perfect light escapist read, just like the Scottish books (a separate series) and the rest of this series. I love them all!

DESCRIPTION:"Being an immortal rogue enforcer is never easy. But when human bones are found buried in a residential garden—and they happen to be discovered by your life mate—things get even more complicated in this latest installment of the Argeneau vampire series.

Crispinus Delacort is an immortal rogue enforcer and a homicide detective. But in his quiet city, he’s more likely to be rounding up truant teens than investigating murders. So, when he learns that human bones have been found in the garden of a sprawling rural home, it’s unexpected to say the least.

Abril Newman can’t believe her bad luck when she discovers a body buried on the grounds of her boss’s home, while chasing after Gina’s mischievous lab Lilith. She was just supposed to be house-sitting for a few days! And then Detective Delacort arrives. She knows she shouldn’t be thinking about love when there’s a crime scene outside the door. But ignoring her attraction to gorgeous Crispin is easier said than done.

When Crispin realizes that a rogue is involved, he knows this won’t be a simple investigation. Especially because he’s so distracted by Abril’s presence that all he wants is to kiss her senseless in every room of the manor. But he can woo her, solve the case, and stop a dangerous rogue by morning... right? All in a day’s work."
