This has got to be the most realistic paranormal erotic series of books I have ever read! But "Amaury's Hellion" sealed the deal for me. Tina has created characters that the reader can actually imagine interacting with in the real world because of their "human-conscience" and this book in particular engages a modern day vampire with human needs and desires, with the paranormal struggles that they go through just to live somewhat normal lives. Amaury's Hellion so excellently depicts this huge, gorgeous, sexy, 6ft 5in, line-backer built French man who for all intents and purposes is cursed to lead the life of what his own best friend called "a perpetual sex-addict", but for the pain he's carried for some 400 years, never loses sight of his heart and most of all his soul. Despite his insatiable appetite for sex, he is a true romantic and brings all the charm, grace and "Sensualite' D'un Homme Francais" that women dream about. The plot of this books allows the reader to imagine this as something that is akin to reality and if you love sexy vampires, who have a sense of humour, are fiercely loyal to family and friends, and pledge their lives to protect a species they have a natural weakness for, hence the bum rap from humans since Dracula rose to fame, then you will literally lose yourself in this series.
The most awesome and attractive part of this book in particular is the reference to the "Blood Bond". The stereotype that Vampires are nothing more than over-sexed, debauched, evil blood-sucking philanderers is exquisitely dispelled by how Amaury's loneliness gets to him, especially when he sees his best-friend of nearly two hundred years, Samson, finally find his mate. And to discover that there is a longing for a connection "deeper than marriage" called the Blood Bond, which these Vampires eventually crave, (albiet after a few hundred years of sexual exploration and depraved living!), a concept so unique, that would send normal full-blooded human bachelors running for their lives and their livelihoods, is the epitome of romantic sexual tension at its finest. I have read Amaury's Hellion 3 times and I still can't get enough of it. I can easily imagine a Scanguards Company and have even dared to imagine a beautiful, big, and sexy French Vampire called Amaury LeSang. Tina Folsom really did me in on this one. I am in love with book and am looking forward to MANY, MANY more Scanguards Series, because I think Samson, Amaury, Gabriel, Yvette, Quinn, Thomas, Zane, Maya and even some Hybrids (hmm, something to think about) need to be introduced to modern-day entities who may be their competition. Did you say they were rumoured to be better than The Secret Service? Hmmm, I see a GOOD storyline in that twist. This book has the funniest instances, jaw-dropping situations and the sex is the hottest and best that I have ever read even after reading "Samson's Lovely Mortal". Amaury LeSang definitely gives his best friend and boss Samson Woodford some competition in the sex department!!! Tina, we need more Scanguards!!
