*A captivating paranormal romance from NYT & USA Today best-selling author Kym Grosso. Experience the mysterious and alluring world of The Immortals of New Orleans.*

After a series of girls are ritualistically murdered on the cold streets of Philadelphia, seasoned detective Sydney Willows is forced to work with sexy, alpha vampire, Kade Issacson. As the case develops, so does Sydney's attraction to her new partner—no matter how hard she tries to fight it.

Kade, determined to solve the case and mete out justice, is captivated by the independent, fiery detective. While he attempts to protect her from a very real murderer, his concern for the beautiful, but very human detective, grows. She could easily end up dead should she tangle with supernatural forces that are beyond her control.

The investigation leads them into the dark and dangerous underbelly of New Orleans, where together, they search for the perpetrators of the Voodoo killings. When Sydney becomes the target of the killer, she ends up fighting for her life and love in the Big Easy. If she makes it out alive, will she give into the intoxicating desire she feels for Kade?

Kade’s Dark Embrace is the first book in The Immortals of New Orleans series. Although many of my fans prefer the series in order, each book is written to be listened to standalone.

At times I was giggling at how stiff this reader is. His pauses are pure Shatner. I hope he loosened up in the other books.

This reader channels William Shatner.

all those doubts.. How a strong "heroine" can be so plagued by doubts I don't understand. And marriage the magic word while bonded simply considered beneath her?! Oh, please....

I like the world created, a bit foggy in its lines, but this is the first book, perhaps it gets better defined in the next books, I am curious about Tristan's story, so I'll go on following the book order

Ookay, sometimes a bit laughable with ...

The story line is great and the characters are relateable. I won't be a spoiler, so I will just say I love the heat! I almost didn't listen past capter one because of the narrators penchant to channel Capitan Kirk. Thankfully he overcomes that as the book progresses. The weird pauses aside, this book is worth the read. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.
