| Callie Whitten is an undercover FBI agent tracking an outlaw who continues to stay one step ahead of the law. Iollan Drake is aware how determined Callie is to capture him. The one night he escapes her clutches again, he arrives at her apartment catching her off guard. Callie is surprised to find a handsome stranger at her door. The man is drop-dead gorgeous but a closer look reveals it is Iollan. She tries to fight the overpowering control he has over her but it is hard not to give into his charm. Callie never intended on becoming intimate with the suspect but his power has a hold over her incredibly hard to release. Callie has been told by her superior to get close to him anyway possible, but falling for Iollan was a different story, especially with him being a vampire. The more time Callie spends with Iollan; her heart is torn with her duty to turn him in, and her deepening love to stay loyal to him.
Devyn Quinn sketches a book that immediately pulls the reader into the action. I love how she makes her characters believable. She brilliantly creates them where the reader can identify with each one. There were times I felt as if I were in Callie's shoes as she becomes torn with her work and her love for Iollan. Be prepared for an adrenaline rush once Iollan steps up to the door. He is hot, scrumptiously delicious and sexy as all get out and when he speaks, it's almost like you can hear his words vibrate off the pages. His sexuality leaps straight into the reader's heart. Once he and Callie connect, the scenes are electrifying. Embracing Midnight is an awesome pulse-pounding read that I highly recommend. It left an unforgettable impression with this reader.
