Book Review: Night Embrace by Sherrilyn Kenyon

Night Embrace (Dark-Hunter, #2)Night Embrace by Sherrilyn Kenyon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Teenage me is very happy to get nearly all of the Dark Hunter novels and read them all…but when I checked to see if I reviewed this one…turns out I didn’t. So let’s get started with the review…with a bit of a complaint.

The complaint is…

Talon of the Morrigantes, Spierr of the Morrigantes, my boy…I FEEL SO SORRY FOR YOU BECAUSE SUNSHINE DIDN’T FEED YOU SOME *ACTUAL* FOOD. No offense to the people who are vegan and what not, because I understand. But good lord, there has to be some Popeyes SOMEWHERE around your house or at least a couple miles so he can get some chicken or some Mickey Donalds or hell, some goddarned WENDYS so he can have his burger or some chicky nuggets or SOMETHING. Good lord. Maybe every once in a while you can go to Longhorn or Outback to get him a nice, juicy steak in here??? Please??? (okay, mini food rant over)

But as I was saying, Talon of the Morrigantes is a Dark Hunter…who got hit by a Mardi Gras float. Thanks to Sunshine Runningwolf, the woman that saved him, he’s okay…but he falls in love with her (and the spice? nice) but then he gets distracted when another ‘Acheron’ tells him to say with Sunshine, and he starts to talk all weird…when Talon knows his friend don’t act the way he used to, he realizes things aren’t going the way they’re supposed to…

That’s when things started to hit the fan.

Like the fact that his sister wasn’t around to warn him about that, Talon and Sunshine thinking that she’s his reincarnated wife Nynia (she is if she’s having flashbacks about him) and the fact that he punched her ex-husband while in Sanctuary while also accidentally exposing the Dark Hunters?? Y-yeah that…that happened…but hey, at least at the end Sunshine and Talon found out that Sunshine’s grandmama is the Morrigan and that both of them were under her protection after Talon bit and drank some of Sunshine’s blood while they were getting their swerve on on the grass, but then they had to stop Dionyous, Camulus and Ash’s brother, Styxx before they released Apollymi the Destroyer…only to stab Acheron in the heart and made him switch his humanity off, but Talon calmed him down, and he was back to normal.

Oh yeah, Zarek was in there, but it was like he was getting in trouble left right and was working with wink, blink, and nod, but then when Sunshine made the deal to give up her soul for Talon…it didn’t go well. There were screams and a bolt of lighting…sigh. But at the end, Talon and Sunshine did get their HEA, and now I’m worried about Zarek. And like Simi says…Artemis is a bitch-goddess…no seriously, she is.
