Since half-vampire Cat Crawfield and her undead lover Bones met six years ago, they've fought against the rogue undead, battled a vengeful Master vampire, and pledged their devotion with a blood bond. Now it's time for a vacation. But their hopes for a perfect Paris holiday are dashed when Cat awakes one night in terror. She's having visions of a vampire named Gregor, who's more powerful than Bones and has ties to her past that even Cat herself didn't know about.
Gregor believes Cat is his and won't stop until he has her. As the battle begins between the vamp who haunts her nightmares and the one who holds her heart, only Cat can break Gregor's hold over her. She'll need all the power she can summon in order to bring down the baddest bloodsucker she's ever faced ... even if getting that power will result in an early grave.

Okay here it goes....I started off REALLY loving this series. It was the first time in a very long time that I was really excited to find a book that I was totally captivated by. But after a while, there are so many unbelievable dynamics that develop that I can't keep overlooking them. After the last few books, I was actually excited to see Frost taking a risk by introducing a character like Gregor and the dynamic that she was introducing. I felt like this was going to be the turning point that made things exciting again, but at the end when it came down to it, I felt like she backtracked. Cat is by far the best character in this series and it's like Frost just wanted to make her a love sick puppy who throws out her better judgement. Cat is a headstrong hero, she doesn't take nonsense from anyone. So when she refused to stand up for herself especially during one pivotal moment, I just couldn't justify any of her characters actions anymore. There were so many opportunities for the characters to communicate, but it seemed that the perpetual misconceptions and intentional disregard for one another just served as a plot device to get the characters where Frost wanted them to be. So for a series that started off strong, I have to say that I am extremely disappointed with where it ended up.Product details

Destined for an Early Grave Night Huntress Book 4 (Audible Audio Edition) Jeaniene Frost Tavia Gilbert Inc Blackstone Audio Books Reviews
Loved this book, especially the last half. The first half drug just a tad for me but the last half was full of excitement, love, fighting, friendship, loyalty, on and on. There is a little jealousy in this book that leads to separations and deeper friendships. Of course there is a "bad" guy or two that keeps the anxiety going and some heartache and heart break . Since I am addicted, I am on to the next book in the series.
Destined For An Early Grave is the fourth book in the Night Huntress series.
Cat & Bones have been married for some time, but even in marriage there are challenges. Enter an evil, power-hungry vamp named Gregor. Turns out, Gregor has visions of the future, and he saw how powerful Cat would become a long time ago. Apparently, when she was sixteen, Gregor glamoured Cat’s mother and whisked her off to Paris to marry her. Master vamp & Bones grandsire, Mencheres, who also sees the future finds out about Gregor’s plan. Mencheres rescues the teenage Cat, buries all memory of Gregor and imprisons the evil vamp. (Are we supposed to overlook the fact that Cat is supposedly immune to vamp glamour?) Now, over a decade later, Gregor escapes custody and wants his bride back.
Sounds stupid, doesn’t it? That’s what I thought too. In fact, I started this book and got distracted by JR Ward and took my time coming back to it. I do have to say though that it gets better. By the middle of the book, my emotional investment into the characters was coming back. By the time it got the scene where Bones leaves Cat, I felt like my heart was getting ripped out. One thing that Frost does very well is capture the emotion in her characters and Destined For An Early Grave nails it, even if the plot didn’t.
Overall, I give Destined For An Early Grave…
Plot – 1 bookmark (Beginning implausible, but some good stuff at the end if you can hold on for it.)
Character Development – 2 ½ bookmarks
Fight Scenes – 3 bookmarks
Love Story – 3 ½ bookmarks (Saved the book in my opinion.)
Dream Cast (otherwise known as who I pictured while reading) – Didn’t change since I reviewed the first book. The cover model on the book (Cat) & David Anders (Bones).
What just happened? Books one through three were all solid five star books for me. But this one was almost intolerable...
I'm not going to spoil the story for everyone else but suffice it to say that I cringed through more than 50% of this book. Bones and Cat were constantly at each other's throats. Sorry - but that's not romantic - or enjoyable. Bones was almost not even recognizable in this book. And Cat took annoying, stubborn and stupid to new levels. When Bones cussed her out about 3/4 of the way through I wanted to give him a high five.
For my part, I would have enjoyed this book a lot more if (1) it had been edited down for all the scenes that really did nothing to move the story along or seemed overly dramatic / unnecessary and (2) Bones and Cat had worked more together than against each other.
It seems to me that this book could have achieved its main objectives (not going to spoil it - you'll know what they are when it's done) without all the antagonism between Bones and Cat. Really - it killed the romance - left me feeling blah about these two. That's so sad, because I adored these two together in the first three books. Their actions seemed way too out of character.
All I can is that I'm glad it's over and I can move on to the next one in the hopes that Bones and Cat work together again and not against each other.
