An interesting, fast paced vampire romance!

Fiend Angelical is an interesting, fast paced vampire romance novel. It was a younger group of characters than I expected but that's good because older teens/young adult readers will be able to relate to it. The heroine is a pretty, young Greek Orthodox girl. I found that provided a unique perspective to the story. Her vampire love interest, Marco, has all the features a woman would find appealing - he's beautiful, musical, mysterious and vulnerable in his own ways. Some parts are very sexy. The reader experiences the caring, concern and feelings of all the characters. You will find everything you are looking for in a Gothic romance! Worth a read!

This book screams Sequel!

Sweet, vulnerable Kassie, a high-school senior, is longing to experience love. Marco, the suave rocker with a deadly secret, has spent centuries searching for someone who would love him for himself. With an attraction akin to the love shared by "Romeo and Juliet" and played out in "Beauty and the Beast," Ria Dimitra weaves her own suspenseful story. Through realistic dialogue and vivid characterization, she allows her readers to bear witness to the story that unfolds before them. Who wouldn't feel the frustration and utter panic as Kassie's younger brother Izzy realizes that Marco is a vampire and tries to warn and protect her, but Kassie won't listen, and her two best friends don't believe him. Highly recommended for teen through young adult readers (and anyone with a fascination for vampires!) I'll be waiting for the sequel, but in the meantime, I'm grabbing a copy of her first novel, The Blood Waltz..

He wanted immortality...

...she was waiting for Romeo...they had a love worth dying for...What part of this doesn't make you want to read it? Has there been anyone who didn't at some point in their life want immortality, Romeo and a love worth dying for? If so, I haven't met them. This book was a wonderful read. When I received it, I set everything else aside and dove in. I am glad I did. This book is an excellent read for anyone who enjoyed Romeo & Juliet, who wants to learn more about it from the perspective of a vampire and a beautiful girl, and who wants a book truly worth its value. Pick up a copy of this book sooner than later.

An ageless tale of love and obsession

I devoured this book in one sitting! This is the best vampire romance I've read in a long time - and I've read a lot! Marco Visconti is the ultimate bad boy - good looks, charisma, he's to die for. Kassie meets him for the first time when she goes to hear his band play at a club. Of course, Kassie can't help falling in love with him. But what she doesn't realize is that Marco is a 700-year-old vampire and her life is about to be turned upside down. Her brother Izzy figures it out first but no one will believe him - after all, everyone knows vampires aren't real! It's been a long time since I was a teenager but a good love story transcends time and age - remember Romeo and Juliet! I really liked how the author uses the vampire themes we're all familiar with, yet steers away from some of the over-uses cliches (Marco does NOT turn into a bat and fly around!) There's also more to the story then meets the eye - Marco's neighbors from 700 years ago and Kassie are the same religion but, where the neighbors used it to exclude him, Kassie uses it to make excuses for him. The characters are original and believable and even the minor characters seem real - the priest, Fr. Dimitri (an obvious wordplay on the author's name!), the next-door neighbor, and I especially enjoyed Izzy, the younger brother. But this story obviously belongs to Marco and Kassie - I wanted so desparately for them to find a way around their problems! I can only hope there's going to be a sequel!
