Immortalis Carpe Noctem (Immortalis #1) by Katie Salidas (book review)

 Synopsis:

Explore the emotional upheaval that is the transformation from human to vampire.Bleeding to death after brutal mugging on the campus of UNLV, Twenty-five year old Alyssa, is rescued by the cold and aloof, vampire, Lysander. Taking pity on her, he shares the gift-and curse-of immortality. She awakens as a vampire and is soon devastated by harsh realities of her new way of life: An unyielding thirst for blood as well as the loss of her friends, her independence, and her humanity.
As if having her humanity stripped away was not enough to make life interesting, Alyssa finds out her "turning", did not go unnoticed by the rest of undead society. Old enemies; an ancient sect of vampire hunters, known as the Acta Sanctorum, as well as a powerful Vampire mistress, each set plans in motion to destroy both Alyssa and Lysander.
Only by accepting her new-found immortality, seizing the night, will Alyssa hope to survive. She and Lysander must fight together against two sets of enemies bent on destroying them both.

 My Review

The author of this book series contacted me and asked me if I wanted to do a review of the second book in this series (which I will be posting soon). I wasn't asked to review the first one but I thought I should.
This book was very good. It wouldn't have taken me long to read this book but I had misplaced my eReader for a few days but once I found it I started reading it again and I just couldn't put the book down and once I was done reading this book I couldn't wait to start reading the second one.

If you want to buy this book in paperback you can buy here in amazon.com or if you perfer e-books then you can buy it at amazon.com or you could also but paperback or Kindle of this book and Katie Salidas' other books directly from the  publishers website Rising Sign Books. Also check out Katie Salidas' blog.

I give this book a 4 out of 5 stars
