Rating:  Summary: Vampires, where? Review: Dalys Aldgate, and enigmatic vampire of 235 years, had a bad time of it as a human. But, as a vampire, he is able to relax. Becoming the owner of a haunted hotel in the small town of Natchez, Mississippi he enjoys a life of solitude. Until Tia Martell, and an enemy from his past come into his life and stir things up.
Tia Martell has had a tough life herself. An ex-cop turned photographer, she is still haunted by the death and violence she saw in her previous job. While on a photo shoot in Natchez she crosses paths with Dalys and there is instant chemistry. But she also falls into the sights of Jermyn St. James, a vampire out for revenge on Dalys who is willing to use anyone, even Tia, in order to punish Dalys. Needless to say she finds herself in a very uncomfortable position; once again facing the death which she had run away from as a cop. But this time she is not alone. She has the protection of Dalys who will stop at nothing to protect her against St. James and the evil he represents.
I found this book to be at the very least interesting. It is not anything too special, but if you are looking for a good quick read, I would suggest Double Image. The way the book was written was refreshing and different, being most of the commentary coming from Dalys, instead of Tia(unlike most vampire books, where the main commentary comes from the female). As a vampire fan, though, I would have to say I am disappointed in this book, it did not focus too much on the fact that Dalys was a vampire. I found myself forgetting that Dalys and St. James were, indeed, vampires. I gave this book four stars as the writing of the book, and the plot itself, where good. I am just disappointed that it did not focus as much on the mystical aspects of vampires.
p.s. please forgive me for any grammatical mistakes as I am only 15 and still have these types of problems. Oh yea, and if you are wondering if this book is `OK' for your 15 year old to read, the answer is yes. The sex scenes are tastefully done and nothing too indecent takes place in this book. (for a vampire book that is, ;) )
Rating:  Summary: A Vampire's World of Menace and Sensuality . . . . Review: Double Image by Jaye Roycraft was expertly written. This book has something for everyone and should NOT be missed!
