Rose Hathaway is a Guardian or almost one. She attends the Vampire Academy in Montana trying to become more prepared to guard the last Dragomir Princess and her best friend, Lissa. Things aren’t always so easy though. A fellow guardian and also her mentor is the love of her life. Two guardians cannot be together for obvious reasons but Rose can’t stop thinking of Dimitri.

Killing Strigoi(undead dead without a soul) to save Moroi ( vampires with a soul) is what a guardian is made for. Rose isn’t her usual self after killing her first Strigoi. Following her heart could lose her best friend forever or could it. Lying to Lissa about Dimitri has been hard enough but now there are other things standing in their way.

Of course you have to read them all to get the effect I got. I couldn’t put them down. I do believe I could read just one and still understand the story but not get the full effect. I love this series. Dimitri and Adrian are two different guys wanting Rose’s attention and going about it in totally different ways. Christian is a sweet boy that is misunderstood by everyone else. So many characters brought to life and loved in this group of books that it leaves you  begging for more.

The series starts with Vampire Academy, Frostbite and Shadow Kiss. Look for Blood Promise out now.

Shadow Kiss (Vampire Academy, Book 3)
