"The new description on Loki and his whore-ish ways had me taking notes seeing almost everyone has a different view on how many children Loki sired in his day, apparently as I learned he humped animals too. But all in all I was a very happy gal at the end of the book therefore it was given 5 stars."
— Merlene (5 out of 5 stars)
“This is trademark MacAlister, full of quirky characters and wacky plot twists. Fans of the funny, madcap Dark Ones series will not be disappointed with this entry.”
— RT Book Reviews (4 stars)“European myths get a workout in Fran’s wisecracking narrative, at its best when her lusty Viking ghost guardians are on the scene.”
— Publishers Weekly“MacAlister delivers another tonic dose of her signature blend of sexual tension and touching romance.”
— Booklist" I love MacAlister's honesty and her crazy background cast, but that scene of Vikings plus sunscreen ... well, that made my day. I probably will track down the earlier Ben & Fran titles. "
— Kate, 2/17/2014" I always have fun when reading Ms. MacAlister's vamp books! "

— Donna, 9/23/2013" Meh. Too many names and subplots going on. I kept feeling like I was missing something. I was glad to see Ulfur back, though. I hope he's in some of the future ones too. I really liked Ben and Fran, but like I said, it just felt like there was this whole back story that I had missed out on. "
— Amy, 9/5/2013" fun fun fun- review coming soon "
— Juju221, 8/9/2013" I waited forever to read this book! (I first started reading Fran and Ben when I was a teen!) I was NOT disappointed-I was laughing so hard I had to put the book down. And the sexy scenes were, ahem. Sexy. "
— Alexis, 6/13/2013" Another humorous romantic romp with Katie MacAlister's characters. I've been reading the boks out of order, so this explains a lot. "
— Marcia, 5/6/2013" I finished this book because it was over before I thought to put it down. Another example of author de-evolution "
— Marisella, 5/1/2012" Love love loved it! I can't go past anything written by Katie especially when it is a Dark Ones Novel. Am waiting not so patiently for the next book! "
— Kate, 3/22/2012" This is not a children's book! But if your old enough the plot is captivating "

— Sandra, 4/3/2011" I very vaguely remember reading the first part of this book but I dont think you really need to read it to follow this story. You can kinda join the dots as book goes on. <br/>A pretty good read, but not enough to make me wanna read the next one in the series... "
— manic_reader, 3/1/2011" Loved it loved it loved it.<br/>Please Katie write a nother one. it is one of the best serieses that i have ever read<br/> "

— Mary, 1/24/2011" This book was OK. I couldn't really seem to get into the characters, and had to force myself to finish it. "
— Amber, 1/24/2011" If I could have, I would have given it 2.5. It isn't that I didn't like it, I just thought it was weak. The Vikings just became annoying. I see that this is a book of a series, but I just don't think I will continue with others in the series. "
— Heather, 1/12/2011" I never knew how utterly exausting laughter was until i read this book i waited patiently for five years for this to come. "
