Some Secrets can be Lethal.

From the outside looking in, Alex Deveraux has it all; a loving family, a business empire, and a bright future. But, the Deveraux family has secrets — deadly secrets. And those secrets have finally caught up to Alex. Caught between two realities, she is forced into a world she never knew existed and a destiny she never wanted.

Grieving the loss of her father only a year after her mother’s death, Alex finds herself in a world she doesn’t understand? She has lived her entire life as a human, oblivious to her true lineage. Her world is turned upside down when her brother — the only family she has left — reveals the family secret. Alex is half-human, half-fae. She is also the reigning fae queen — a title she inherited a year ago when her mother died. Her people desperately need a strong leader to survive because they are at war with the vampires — and the bloodsucking king wants Alex dead. Can she overcome the shock, conquer her insecurities, and rise to the challenge? Or will she die a horrible death — just like her parents? And how will Dimitri, the sexy new warrior leader, play into her future?

Melanie P. Smith was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah. She has an Associates of Science degree in Marketing, a bachelor’s in Business Management, and a Masters Certificate in Conflict Resolution, Negotiation and Mediation.

Long before she delved into the world of fantasy and suspense, Melanie P. Smith served nearly three decades in the Special Operations Division at her local sheriff’s office working with SWAT, Search & Rescue, K9, the Motor Unit, Investigations and the Child Abduction Response Team. She now uses that training and knowledge to create stories that are action-packed, gripping, and realistic. When Melanie’s not writing, she can be found riding her Harley, exploring the wilderness, or capturing that next great photo.

True Blood meets Buffy!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 9, 2014

Verified Purchase

If you enjoy a lively mix of vampires vs. Fairies, you will love Dusk: Book 1. The author creates a dangerous world filled with battling creatures led by Alex (the Fae Queen) and her half-brother Radek who will stop at nothing to have his vampires kill her. Alex is a ‘healer’ and those injured in the fight can be saved by her. The ‘warriors’ are the talented and centuries old soldiers who protect her and among them, is the handsome Dimitri to whom Alex has lost her heart. Dusk is a delightful blend of the supernatural and romance. Highly recommended.

It's a good read, one that draws you into the story

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 26, 2014

I had a chance to read this book before it's release. It's a good read, one that draws you into the story. Every time I go to put the book down I get drawn into one of those "just a little more to see what happens" moments, you just can't put it down. It's the first of a series and leaves you wanting to get your hands on the next one. I highly recommend it.

Alex is a strong female lead

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 11, 2017

When Alex Deveraux loses both her mother and father in a short space of time, she thinks her world has come crashing down. What she doesn’t know is that her family has tried to protect her from an even more dangerous world. She meets a whole host of people she didn’t even know that existed. What I liked most about this book (besides the action and romance!) is that the author has set this fantasy novel in a modern setting. I often get distracted when I read fantasy as the alternative universes some writers set their stories in can be very complex and bewildering. (Maybe you can tell that I wasn’t a big fan of the hobbit!) I could understand Alex as a woman. She not only has to deal with the loss of her father, but also the stress of organising the perfect funeral and making sure his company remains a successful one. Alex is a strong female lead, independent, successful as a business woman, but also vulnerable and complex. Alex’s romance with Dimitri takes centre stage and even though it is lovely and pure, I could have maybe done with a bit more action and a quicker pace. (The fighting kind, I’m a big fan of clean fantasy) I also would like to know more of both her parents’ history, but that might be for another book. There are still a few blanks to be filled in and the fight with the vampires is far from over. Great start to a series.

Great Paranormal Story, extremely enjoyable :)

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 4, 2014

We start this story with a young woman named Alex, who rushes home from Italy with the news of her fathers passing just a year after losing her mother. Alex returns home to her step brother, and here she meets Dimitri the man who enthralls her and yet repels her at the same time. She learns some secrets that her parents had kept hidden from her but not her brother for the past 20 years. Alex is thrown into a world she never knew existed when she learns she's not only different, she's the Fae Queen. Her people are struggling on the verge of war against her half brother, the leader of the Vampires who feels wronged by Alex's ascent to the throne and her parents keeping her hidden may have done more harm than good by keeping her from her people. We follow along on her quest to learn more about who she is, while trying to save a people she doesn't even know will accept her.

Alex is a great strong female lead, I loved her witty personality. She was caring, loyal, and a warrior through and through. Dimitri starts off as your typical broody male lead, but as the story continues he opens up and you begin to just love his charm. The supporting characters were great, they brought it all together for a story you couldn't help but enjoy. I found myself constantly smiling throughout this book, and I am happy to have had the chance to read it. If you're a fan of paranormal romance with a little bit of kick butt action than you should grab a copy of Dusk and enjoy.
