Vail the Unwanted is a pureblood vampire. But raised in Faery, he has neither home nor peace, and when his aid is sought in the recovery of a priceless diamond gown, his price is information. Specifically the whereabouts of his accursed father. His goal is revenge, and the supernaturally sexy Lyric, the icy blond vampiress with whom he must work, is a distraction he can’t afford.
Outwardly as cold as the diamond dress in which she was kidnapped, Lyric has her own secrets. Desperate to break free from her criminal family, she aligns herself with the brooding Vail. Together they seek justice while each secretly works for freedom and a fresh start. For Lyric that means holding herself apart, even from the smoldering blue-eyed Vail. For Vail, it means a battle to the death for revenge—and for a temptress he can’t deny.
My Summary:
Vail was taken as a baby, as part of a boon (a payment) that had to be paid for a debt from the past, to live in Faery. Once it is discovered that Vail is a full blooded Vampire, he is taught to hate everything about the outside world and vampires. After a doing a favor for a friend Vail finds himself banished from Faery, the only home he has ever known, to the mortal world. Not knowing whom to turn to Vail finds himself seeking out his family, the same family that gave him up as a baby. Rhys gives Vail a fresh start, a house, a car, the tools he needs for revenge and now a job. A simple job… find a Vampiress and a dress.
Lyric is so tired of living under her mother’s roof. She dreams of running away to join the circus or finding a deserted island somewhere. Lyric just wants to start a new life. So when Lyric’s mother asked her to deliver a dress, she’s not so willing to do it, but agrees anyways, it is too hard to say no to her mother. Knowing she will be able to get away at least for a little while will be nice. That is until she finds out what the dress is and who she has to deliver it to. That is when Lyric panics. But panic is short lived when one of the windows in her bedroom breaks and she takes a fist to the side of the head….then she blacks out.
Vail’s job is to find the Vampiress and the dress. Turn the Vampiress over to her mother, return the dress to Rhys. Get the information that he needs about his real father and then kill him. But everything changes when Vail actually catches Lyric. There is something about the Vampiress that draws him in. Vail doesn’t understand, because he has always been taught that Vampires in the mortal world are dirty creatures. Lyric is the opposite of everything that he was ever taught.
Please met Vail

My Thoughts:
I have been looking forward to reading this book since I finished Seducing the Vampire. In Seducing the Vampire we are introduced to Vaillant at the very end of the book. I won’t tell you too much about Seducing the Vampire, but you can read my review HERE.
I was fortunate to be able to read this book before the release day on April 19th. I enjoyed this book so very, very much.
The chemistry between Vail and Lyric is hot. They play off each other so well. Vail is stubborn to a fault. Vail is such a sweet guy, sexy as hell and is just trying to find his place in a world he knows nothing about. Lyric is a girl who knows what she wants and now she wants 100% of Vaillant. And once Vail gets over his fear of the unknown he learns what and who is important to him.
I am hoping that Michele will bring Vail and Lyric back in a future book. I want to know how these two are doing. But after talking to Michele she has no plans for them right now. *Crossing my fingers*

I haven't read the other books, but I would kill to have the set. Michele is one of my all time favorite paranormal authors! If the other two books are anything like Forever Vampire how could I do anything else but LOVE THEM!!!!

Hi Kelley,
Well I have gotten to know Michele via email over the last year. I've pretty much have read all her paranormal books. I especially love her Vampire books. As to why I think I should win is because the 13th is my birthday. I will be 48 and I was also born on Friday the 13th. So I think this set of books would make a great birthday present.
Also Vail is one sexy and beautiful vamp. Good luck to all.
