Sinopsis :

They should never have met...

In a glittering community in the Colorado Rockies called the Etherlin, the descendants of the ancient muses live behind a wall that separates them from the dangerous creatures that crave them. 

Alissa North is inspiration made flesh, so she should never have met Merrick, a deadly half-vampire enforcer, but when they do meet, the connection is instantaneous, and an illicit flirtation is born. He sends her secret gifts. She writes him secret letters.

The long-distance friendship was never supposed to go any farther. But when she is kidnapped and thrown briefly into his world, everything changes. Now Alissa realizes he’s the only person she can trust, and Merrick finds he’ll do anything to protect her, even risk his life by crossing the wall.

As both worlds close in on them, Alissa knows that getting caught with Merrick could cost her everything she’s ever cared about, but giving him up proves harder than she ever imagined…

 Review

Banyak sekali ya buku fantasy yang mengangkat tema mitologi, terutama yang dari Yunani. Pasti tahu dong dengan Percy Jackson, Hercules, para dewa dewi Yunani macam Zeus, Hera, dan sebagainya. Tema yang ngga bakalan basi dipakai terus - terusan sih, dan yang juga digunakan oleh Kimberly Frost dalam novelnya yang berjudul All That Bleeds. Bedanya, beliau memakai muse , makhluk mitologi yang merupakan para putri Zeus dan dewi - dewi yang memberikan inspirasi bagi literature, ilmu pengetahuan dan seni. Plus dicampur dengan elemen paranormal yang sudah umum yaitu vampire. Menarik nih :D
