Stake-Out by Lily Luchesi: Spotlight & Review



I had purchased this book back in May and just now got a chance to read it.  I'm so glad I finally got to this one....

Blurb:

In a city overrun with the undead, an ex-cop is given a chance to get revenge...
Danny Mancini is on a case, following a murder suspect. When he catches him, he finds out that the perp isn't even human: he's a 200-year-old rogue vampire!
The department doesn't believe him, and puts him on early retirement, despite his many years of service to the Chicago Police Department, which sends him into a downward spiral.
Two years later, Danny gets an invitation from the beautiful, young Detective Angelica Cross to join a secret branch of the FBI to help her track down Vincent, the wayward vamp.

But renegade werewolves, meddling immortal witches and Danny's strange visions of a life lived a century ago with Angelica make things more difficult than it should be.

My Review: 

This was a fast afternoon read and a lot of fun.  I loved the combination of romance, horror, and action.  It has many of the paranormal elements I love and the characters are well developed with background information coming at a steady and non-distracting pace.  Angelica is not your regular run-of-the-mill vamp and as the book progresses we find out that Danny is not your average retired detective.  The book left me wondering not only about the on and off again romance but what the future holds for Danny's developing powers.  I look forward to reading the next book in the series.  I give this one five stars...
