Dream chaser by Sherrilyn Kenyon is another novel in her Dark-Were-Dream Hunter series and I’ve read some disappointed stories, but this novel was good. I ignored all the reviews and spoilers of this book and was ready to jump right in and discover thing for myself. Well, what a surprise it was, when the book turned out to be a great one.

Xypher is a gorgeous man, half demon half-god, but a real pain in the ass. After being betrayed by the woman he thought he loved and send to hell, where Hades tortured him, he is ready to get his revenge and he has only one month to do it, otherwise he is back in hell. But when he meets Simone and is magical bound to her through bracelets placed by Satara, this all changes. Now he must protect her against his enemies or they die together.
Simone Dubois is different, because she has a ghost as company and she already know about the Dark Hunters. Now she finds herself magical bound to a gorgeous arrogant man and knows she has to save his life and soul. But will she be in time or is she going to loose the man she began to love?

We meet a new character Jaden, another pain in the ass, but I would like to get to know him better. He appears to be arrogant and hard, but has his heart in the right place, so hopefully he will be in future novels. Now I’ll have to wait till Acheron shows up at my doorstep and when that happens, I will lock the doors and shut off the phone, because there will be nobody that interrupts me and the most powerful God there is.

Sherrilyn Kenyon - Devil may cry

Sin is an ex-God and he is not happy about that. Artemis, goddess of the hunt took Sin’s powers and left him to die. But Acheron “Ash” came to his aid and turned Sin into a Dark Hunter. So Sin has lived many centuries as a Dark Hunter, with a reputation for brutal elimination of demons and humankind. Sin lives in Las Vegas with his own casino. The only hope he has is that one-day he will get his revenge on Artemis and retreat his powers.

Artemis fears Sin will succeed and tries to convince Ash to take him down, but he refuses, so the only other option is to send Katra to Las Vegas to do the job. Katra believes Artemis and what she’s telling her, so she goes to Las Vegas, there she sees Sin brutally decapitating a demon and human and sets them on fire afterwards. Now she is ready to kill the ex-God, but he disappears and during the search for him she almost becomes a victim herself. But the same man she promise to kill is saving her.

Now the gallu demons are about to escape and Sin is the only one who can save humankind. But the demons are holding his brother and without Zakar, Sin won’t be able to stop the gallu demons. Sin has to trust the two women Katra and Artemis, who can destroy him forever.

Devil may cry by Sherrilyn Kenyon is another novel in the Dark-Dream Hunter series and after reading some less stories, this one was good. I really enjoy reading it and discover more about Katra, Sin, Acheron and Artemis background.

Sin and Katra are right for each other, although they meet before Sin cannot remember it and that is probably for the best. When they meet again in battle Sin believes Katra is Artemis and finally plans his revenge, but things are not going according the plan. When Sin’s worst enemies are trying to escape the sealed chamber, so he needs all the help he can get, even if this means asking a goddess with powerful powers.

The second storyline in this novel is the relationship between Artemis, Acheron and Katra. It was nice to lean more background about Acheron and the bond between Acheron and Artemis, but also between Artemis and Katra. I can truly say I’m really curious about Acheron’s book that man has gone through so much.

Sherrilyn Kenyon - Upon the midnight clear

Aiden’s brother Donnie summons the God to kill his brother, but Leta will not let that happen, especially when she meets Aiden in person. After living through the loss of her husband and daughter many years ago, she finally finds love and happiness in another man’s arms.

Upon the midnight clear by Sherrilyn Kenyon is another novel in the Dark / Dream Hunters series. Although the story is short and the fact that the couple fell in love in just one day, it was a nice novel to read. I was a little disappointed how fast it all went, the couple met, fight, shared dreams and finally win the battle. I believe this should be a full length novel with more romance, it’s what Leta and Aiden deserves. Both of them are strong and very devoted and they both come from an injured past and tries to survive on their own way.
But the moment they meet, they gave each other another meaning in live.

Like I said, it was a very nice short story, I cannot wait to see what happens to Xypher in Dream Chaser, He caught my eye in this novel and want to know more about him
