Into the Light - Katherine Hastings

I'm not usually one to pick up a book about vampires but I am a sucker for a good love story, and Into the Light by Katherine Hastings does not disappoint.

When we meet Emilia she is nothing short of a hot mess. Her husband walked out and left her with a broken heart and a pile of debt. Her parents are dead and she has no siblings. She's alone and broken. And when she thinks it cannot get any worse, she loses her job.

Lucky for Emilia, Aiden arrives just in time to rescue her. No, he's not a knight on a white horse, but he does have a once in a lifetime offer for her. Uncertain of his real agenda but curious, she takes the bait. What else can she lose at this point, right?

Emilia soon learns Aiden doesn't want to kill her, but he does want her blood. He is a vampire and needs a good source of blood to stay alive, and according to him, Emilia's got the best supply. In exchange for five years of her services, she'll walk away with five million dollars. Aiden's assistant Mark guarantees her safety and anything she could imagine. Yes, anything - five-star accommodations, designer clothes, delicious food, luxury cars and shoes for days!


Emilia quickly gets cozy in her new residence and enjoys the company of Mark. She even starts to look forward to feeding time. As time continues to pass, both Emilia and Aiden develop feelings neither of them anticipated. Their love is strong but cannot survive forever without sacrifice. How much is a lifetime together worth?

I found myself for the first time wishing vampires were real. The agreement is intriguing and Aiden's charm, wit and good looks only sweeten the deal. And then there's Mark. He's absolutely hilarious and one of my favorite secondary characters ever. I really want him to get his own story!! 😉

Into the Light is a fantastic story about two people who are willing to go the distance when it comes to love, no matter how impossible it seems or how many obstacles they face along the way. I enjoyed spending time with these characters and sincerely hope this is not the last we see of them.
