Breaking down her emotional barriers and prejudice toward vampires ? Read the novel ! A spine-tingling Erotic Romance, with an adventureous story of revenge that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Author Patrice Michelle, weaves a complex society of vampires that are engrossing. Inventive scenes of intimacy as well !

I am not a reader of Romance novels. As a consumer, I read many things including, Vampire fiction for entertainment, and recently, Vampire Erotica (which appears to be a genre that is really gaining momentum).

One thing I can say with enthusiasm; author Patrice Michelle has created a very distinctive and nuanced race of vampires for her fiction series. The Kendrian's, have several tribes within their race, each tribe possessing unique variations of inherent ability. Patrice Michelle crafts wonderful characters which, completely draw you into her stories. All are memorable. My only real complaint : the author tends to describe "popular" music in detail, which was a mood breaker for me. I would have preferred
that she merely suggest it. Not all of us care for the same music.

That said, I enjoyed "A Taste for Revenge" the best. Though, I think it would be a true shame to read just one book in the series, all are enjoyable to read, each offer something different. Call me a purist, I like a healthy dose of erotica in my "Vampire Erotica" ! The series is billed as "Erotic Romance", so one does expect a healthy dose of graphic sexual content ! In the first book, "A Taste for Passion", we are introduced to the character of Ian and his brother Duncan. The third book, "A Taste for Control" is all about Ian's twin Duncan (and has cameos from the characters in the previous books). "A Taste for Control" is quite an epic of fiction for an erotic romance, the erotica is absorbing but becomes a little lost along the way. "A Taste for Revenge" had the most cohesive blend of passionate erotica with an action-packed plot, neither element outdoing the other. The other books became more drawn out in the romantic characters hesitation for each other and a bit lighter on gratification, which became frustrating for me. It is odd how things work out. I thought that a book about a vampire hunter would be my least favorite ! Do buy them all though, today !!!

P.S. Patrice Michelle, I can't wait for more books in the series !

I rather impulsively bought all three titles in this series, and am loving them. I found this one to be better than the first, and I can't wait to read the third. The sex is hot, the connections between the characters strong, and is everything I want in my vampire romances. I'll be watching this author, and indeed, have begun to check out more Ellora's Cave releases, since I think I have found a new obsession. Very glad I purchased these.

I thought that A Taste For Passion was wonderful but A Taste for Revenge is even better! The characters are beautifully drawn and the story grips you from page one. A Taste For Revenge and it's prequel (A Taste For Passion) have made Patrice Michelle a "must buy" author!

Patrice Michelle, has written a thrilling followup to her book A Taste For Passion.

Ian Mordoor is on a quest to find a rogue named Drace who vicously killed a human vampire hunter. He must do this before he takes control of the vampire clan. He wasn't planning on finding another person on Drace trail.

Jax Markson is out to avenge her father John Marksons death. She takes up his vampire hunting skills and is on Drace's trail. But she finds Ian Mordoor searching too. Ian is an intriguing man but she can't let him get in the way of her quest.

Ian realizes he has found his soul mate in Jax and will do whatever he has to to prove it to her.

Patrice Michelle has written a fascinating book of vampires, intrigue and stiring passion. This one is hot and a keeper.

This book is excellent. Great plot, great characters, great sex :) It's a must read!!

I loved everything about this book. There's a strong, smart and beautiful heroine and a strong, smart and HOT hero. Add in that she's a vampire hunter and he is one...the Enforcer no less. It all makes for an exciting and steam-filled story. When I finished this book I was definitely ready for stories about the secondary characters. Maybe those possible future books will give me a chance to revisit with Ian and Jax but until then I'll be rereading this book a few more times :)

In A Taste for Revenge, we get to focus on Ian, a character introduced in the prequel A Taste for Passion.

When Drace, a rogue vampire, kills a vampire hunter, Ian sets out to track him down and kill him. This is where we are introduced to Jax, the vampire hunter's daughter who is hell bent on extracting revenge. The story takes an enjoyable twist when Ian realizes that Jax is his soulmate. Will these two ever be able to have a relationship? Will justice be served?

A Taste for Revenge dives further into the depths of this series. Ian was a very enjoyable character in A Taste for Passion and I was pleased that he has his own story now. Patrice Michelle has been added to my list of "auto buy" authors and I cannot wait to see what she comes out with next!

My first book by this author (and unkowingly, the second in a series by her ) was a great adventure. The heroine, Jacueline (Jax) is out for revenge on the vampire who killed her dad. I liked Jax, because she was a strong heroine, a fighter, and not some, "Woe-Is-Me" chick. She takes charge and kicks some rogue vampire butt. While on one particular hunt she encounters Ian Mordoor-half human/half vampire, who's also nic-named, "The Enforcer". With his mixed blood, he is able to be in the sunlight, which is a handy attribute when you're killing rogue vampires. Jax wants this kill, as this is THE vamp she's been hunting for so long, but Ian wants this vamp's hide too, so they fight each other to see who gets the honors. Sexual tension ensues, as Ian has never met a female like Jax before and is instantly drawn to her. Being as this is an erotic romance, the sex is pretty graphic and hot, so if you like your romances a bit tamer, this book is not for you. There's plenty of action, great charcter development, and a wonderfully writen story that keeps you interested and hanging on every word through the whole book. I ordered book 1 and book 3 and can't wait to read those too!

Summary: Jacqueline (Jax) is a vampire hunter, she teams up with hot and gorgeous Ian (The Enforcer) to kill Drace a rogue vampire. Jax has vampires to kill she doesnt have time for relantionships, but she invokes her wild side and pursues a hot sexual fling with Ian. Ian discovers that Jax is his mate and won't settle for a one night stand.

Excellent story line...Alpha- male with a fiesty heroine.

A MUST READ.........ANXIOUSLY AWAITING TASTE FOR CONTROL #3 TO ARRIVE IN MY MAIL BOX.

This books is a wonderful story of revenge and true love. Jax is a Vampire hunter who is looking for the Vampire who killed her father. Ian Mordoor is a Vampire who hunts Drace, the rogue Vampire who killed Jax's father. Jax and Ian join forces to bring an end to Drace terror. As they work together they find a love that nobody of them thought would be possible. This very hot and sexy story is a must read for every vampire fan. I can also recommend the prequel A taste of passion.
