Seduce the Darkness (Alien Huntress Book 4) Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 451 ratings

New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter’s paranormal novel features the return of her sexy breed of alien huntresses.

Devyn is a warrior, and an unrepentant collector of women, able to charm anyone. Anyone except Bride McKells. Uneducated in the ways of the vampire, Bride is not even sure if other vampires exist. Seductive Devyn has the answers she craves, and he can take her to the dark underground of her people. But Bride's blood might hold the key to saving Devyn's friends, so he's loath to let her go. Especially when he begins to crave her more than he's ever craved another. Together they enter the seedy world of slave auctions, battle a powerful alien queen whose diseased blood turns humans into cannibals, and discover a passion unlike any other. But in the end, Bride must choose between the man she's come to love and the family she's always longed for.

Review by Cassandra from Book Talk

The war on Earth between otherworlders and humans changed things beyond recognition. It also saved Bride McKells's life. This gorgeous vampire used to be a target for every vampire hunter fanatic with a stake and a crucifix. Thanks to the war, she is now free to roam the streets, and is desperate to find others of her kind. She finds help in the one man who claims to have the answers. Devyn, King of the Targons, is a warrior and a womanizer, and he makes no secret that he desires Bride's body. Devyn is an avid collector of woman. otherworld and human alike. That is, until Bride slams into his life. She refuses him at every turn and leaves Devyn with feelings he has never known, a need that borders on obsession. Bride's blood is the key to curing the horrible Scion disease, but by helping Bride discover her vampire origins will bring her face-to-face with a choice between electrifying passion and a destiny that could tear her from Devyn's side forever.

I absolutely love this book. Devyn is probably my favorite male character out of the whole series. He is conceited and let's everyone know how wonderful he is. The way he goes about it you can't help but love him, plus I agree with it. No woman has ever been anything more than a passing fancy for Devyn, especially if he's already had the species. That is, until he meets Bride. She is the first woman ever to knock Devyn down countless times, yet he can't help but come back for more. He has an obsession with her that he can't explain. We also get to find out why Devyn is the way he is, due to his past which is very troubled. Bride, on the other hand, has no idea about her people or her past. All her life has been spent living on the surface trying to learn all she can and survive. With the help of Devyn, Bride is determined to find others like her. Devyn's womanizing days are also at an end, thanks to a unintentional binding, he is now tied to Bride forever. His feelings are complicated and strange to him, but will he be able to sort them out before he loses her? Bride finds she has a destiny that was planned for her and that there are things about herself and her past that are a danger to all those around her. Will she be able to survive? The only thing I didn't like about this book is the shortness of it. It's a full length novel but I would have loved to have even more. Devyn and Bride are very entertaining and this is a must read! Warning: adult content and violence.

*****spoiler alert*****

This book was just wicked I loved every moment of it that I read it in three hours last night! I loved everything about the book there was so much action and so much passion I can't get enough of this series it always puts me on edge for the next book in the series which I can't wait to read because it sounds just as good as this one!:) This book starts out with us meeting Bride who is a vampire but she thinks she is the only one left in the world because she can't find anybody else that is like her she later finds out why in the end of the book. She meets a man named Devyn who knows about vampires but won't give her answers about them unless she gives him something in return. Devyn is a charmer or player. I really don't like him at first but by the end of the book I'm in love with him and so is bride which is crazy because he tells her at the beggining that he has already had a vampire and he doesn't want another one but bride is special because she is a certain type of vampire a nerffeti I think it was called which means she is very powerful and can do alot of different things with different powers because vampires usually only have one power but with nerffeti's they have more than one power in the end of the book bride finds out that bride isn't her real name that the tattoo on her arm means she suppose to get married to a guy named Mckell and he's an ass and I don't like him at all. But it don't matter because Devyn and Bride are already married because well you will find out when you read the book but in the end I loved this book it was awesome and I can't wait for the next book!:)

I was waiting for Devyn's story. He's so hot yet such a womanizer that it lowered his allure in my eyes. Then along came Bride!

I seem to always like Gena's female protagonists better than their counterparts, probably because they are all so badass yet have good hearts. Bride was like that.

There were several background and ongoing stories going on and I cannot wait to see what happens.

Love Gena Showalters writing. She has such strong imagery that you are in the book with the characters. Seeing, touching, feeling the resonance of story. This series offers redemption for a quirk of fate, that shows just how your perception can be twisted. Awesome!

5.0 out of 5 stars Romantisch und spannend!
Reviewed in Germany on January 28, 2010
Ich fand das Buch super! Ich habe schon eine Folge der "Alien Huntress"-Serie gelesen und zwar die Geschichte, die in "Deep Kiss of winter" erschienen ist.
Auch die Geschichte von Bride und Devyn hat mich total gefangen genommen. Während er der totale Womanizer ist und eigentlich mit jeder schläft, ist Bride als Vampirin ohne Wissen über ihre Herkunft eher darauf bedacht, im Hintergrund zu bleiben und sich versteckt zu halten. Sie wünscht sich sehnlichst Aleha wiederzufinden, ihre einzige richtige Freundin aus Kindertagen.

Devyn und Bride treffen sich durch Zufall, weil Devyn der Geruch von Aleha anhaftet. Während Bride Antworten fordert, wo denn ihre Freundin ist, möchte Devyn sie eigentlich nur verführen...mit wenig Erfolg!

Die beiden liefern sich durch die ganze Geschichte hindurch ein sehr witziges und spannendes Katz-und-Maus Spiel bei dem sie sich gegenseitig versuchen auszutricksen. Dabei findet Bride mehr und mehr über ihre Vergangenheit und ihre Herkunft heraus und über ihre wahren Kräfte...

Fazit: Eine sehr schöne Liebesgeschichte, der es nicht an Spannung fehlt! Sehr empfehlenswert!
Für Fans von Kresley Cole, Nalini Singh und J.R. Ward

5.0 out of 5 stars One more fantastic Alien Huntress read...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 18, 2009
I got hooked on the Alien Huntress series after reading the Lords of the Underworld and loving Showalter's style.
She created this future world realistically without too much emphasis on sci-fi. The romance takes precedence, which is great for me!
Devyn is a character that got introduced in a previous book and left me wanting to hear his story. I loved the way he changes throughout the book from a heartless womaniser into a man in love. Bride is a likeable character too, a vampire who thinks she is the only one. Nice, page turning action, hot romance scenes and great futuristic settings. Loved it.
