4 Star
Aileen Henderson was an extremely intriguing character. Her introduction was understated and built up to unexpected and powerful dynamics. Aileen's fierceness came in many forms from advocating for her friends to confronting the unwanted situation she found herself in. Ms. Englard artfully layered this character's revelations keeping her readers on edge, escalating this story incrementally for an explosive end to this book and anticipated beginning to the next book in this series.
The conflicting emotions and reluctant attraction between Aileen and Ragnor added a nice element of heat to this story. Their interactions often went from cold to hot quickly keeping this story lively and pushing her portrayals boundaries to their limits. This author realistically showed how Aileen dealt with her overwhelming and stressful circumstances. The divulging of Aileen's past, for insight into her strengths and weaknesses, was very well done by this writer. A fascinating secondary cast will pique readers' interest and added to this work.
Sapir A. Englard brings interesting and unique characters to life in her writing. Dark subject matter was dealt with carefully and without glossing over it by this author while keeping the integrity of her story's underlying malevolent theme. Cloak of the Vampire started off slow only to launch off into a surprisingly memorable story that will have readers excited for the next installment of this series!
