For Master Vampire Darian, his world is about to explode when he is accused of a crime he did not commit. In order to save their lover, Xavier and Natasha race against the clock to figure out the mystery and find out who is framing Darien because in a matter of days, he will die.

THE GUILTY INNOCENT picks up right after book one, Desires Unleashed ends and we find Natasha being wooed by both Xavier and Darian as she finds her place in their world and tries to get a handle on the powers she has. What I love about this author’s stories is how her world building just expands and grows with each book. From the o0pening sentence to the final words in the book, this author gives the reader one hell of a ride from start to finish. Throw in a few twists, some amazing secondary characters and stir in some hot steamy scenes well, you got the makings for one red hot read. The writing is tight, story flows at a nice even pace and the cast of characters…well let’s just say there is someone for everyone to root for. They are complex and the author does a great job in showing the reader their faults and good traits as well as giving the reader a glimpse into each individual paranormal world, be it vampire, shifter or others you may find here in THE GUILTY INNOCENT.

THE GUILTY INNOCENT is one of those books you can’t just put down. I loved every minute of the mystery Xavier, Natasha and their friends had to figure out before Darian was put to death for a crime he did not commit. Plus you get a chance to see some new characters that intrigued me as well as a few old friends from the first book. I love the dynamics between all the characters, whether vampire, shifters or human. D.N. Simmons is fast becoming my go to author when I need a paranormal hit and her Knights of the Darkness Chronicles is one series that I love to read over and over again. I can’t wait to see what she does in book three.

If you are looking for a hot, sexy paranormal series, then try D.N. Simmon’s Knights of the Darkness Chronicles and settle in for one pulse pounding ride from start to finish.
