So what’s Sid about?

So, what did I like about Sid?

I’m already a fan of Teresa Gabelman’s writing style finding her books easy to read. Her plots are gripping and the pace is fast but never feeling rushed. I’m drawn in with her main characters and fantastic collection of supporting cast. Humans and vampires so credible that she leaves me wanting to read more!

Jeffrey Kafer’s performance is once again amazing: he IS the voice of the VC Warriors. His performance embodies the strength, power and “alpha-ness” of the male characters and although he doesn’t change his voice dramatically for each character (male or female) the subtle variations to pace and tone certainly transport me into each and every scene. 

Sid definitely lived up to my expectations.

I’d already fallen in love with Sid Sinclair from the previous books. Loving his alpha-ness which makes him strong and domineering. However, he always puts women first with his heightened protectiveness – like all the VC Warriors. But it was his humour that first drew me in and seared his place in my heart. I am so glad that Ms Gabelman introduced Lana into his life.

Lana’s another perfect addition to the ladies in the VC Warrior family.

Lana Fitzpatrick is Sid’s perfect match. She’s a very special lady with a great sense of protecting the innocent, putting herself in danger to help others, she’s intelligent, has a fabulous sense of humour and fun and she knows how to handle herself in a fight.

This book, heck this series so far, certainly doesn’t shy away from difficult themes; human trafficking, physical abuse, racism, sexual abuse… Luckily Ms Gabelman tackles these subjects with compassion, engaging prose and balances out the horror with beautiful romance, oodles of humour and great banter.

This whole story gripped me and kept me turning the pages.

The romance aspect between Lana and Sid built nicely with the sexual anticipation building at a good pace plus I loved the way that the Jill/Slade story developed and enjoyed the insights there too. There are a few shocking twists in the crime/thriller aspect within this book that I didn’t see coming – I love that!

I loved that Sid had me shedding tears, got my blood boiling with anger but also had me chuckling out loud, sent tingles of titillation to all the right spots *blush* and warmed my old romantic heart.

So, um, was there anything I disliked about it?

Nope, I was happy with every aspect of this book, having said that, I would just like to mention that the story arcs relating to Crimson Rush (the illegal trade in vampire blood), the human trafficking story and the issues relating to the new “man-made” vampire half-breeds develops throughout this series. Ms Gabelman does attempt to weave basic details into her books so that new readers are not completely lost, however, I don’t think that you can read Sid without having read the previous books first; I feel that you’d miss an awful lot if you haven’t.

So, basically what I’m saying is…

I absolutely loved this exciting paranormal romance story; I couldn’t stop reading it! It’s got everything that I look for in a 5-star book; action, romance, humour, a gripping story-line and well written, erotic sex scenes.

I’d recommend Sid to adults who are fans of relationship and romance tales with gritty story-lines and heaps of passion.
