Chronicle Supposing Books Be Mine Tonight (Brotherhood of Blood #1)
I am called Chapel.For nearly six centuries I have roamed the night, a mortal man no longer. Would that I could undo the past—when I entered the sanctuary of the Knights Templar to wrest from them the Holy Grail, only to discover the chalice I raised to my lips was not the sacred relic but a hellish cup of damnation. Now I shun the day and all things human, driven by an ungodly thirst. And yet...
Never have I known a maiden the like of Prudence Ryland, whose beauty and spirit awaken a heart I feared long cold and dead. But her young life is slipping away, and she also seeks the deliverance of the Grail—unaware that the cost of her search could be her soul. I must help Prudence, for in six hundred years, no other woman has stirred my passions so. But dare I tender to my beloved that which she most desires—the sensuous "gift" of forever that is both rapture and a curse: my immortal kiss?

Once there, he encounters Prudence Ryland, a feisty young woman desperate to obtain the grail for her own reasons, and is torn between
I have seldom encountered a book, particularly a series, in the historical/vampire genre. First book that comes to mind is the Cin Craven Series and it's one of my favorites. The first book of the series of The Brotherhood of the Blood, was surprisingly good. .. See link below for my complete review..http://bookladysbookshelf.blogspot.co...
I cryed. I'm neither a crybaby nor the kind of woman who weeps every other minute, but I swear I cried a river. I couldn't stop. My dad was hovering around me, afraid something really bad happened, I don't know what to say. Just this, if Kathryn Smith made an half as good job on her other novels I'm going to the library right now.I did not love Chapel, but I could FEEL Prudence's love for him, could almost touch his growing love for her, his pain at discovering she was dying, their heartbreak at
Opening Line:" It was obvious the door was not meant to be opened."This is one of those books that you either love or hate and while I didnt love this it did manage to redeem itself enough so that in the end I didnt hate it either. Set in 1899 (which for some reason I didnt know until I started reading) Kathryn Smith knows her stuff when it comes to writing a historical. The attention given here to the clothing, home trappings, servants and ones status all make for a rich and well written novel.
This was such a great book. Chapel is just so sweet and it just kills me that Pru is dieing. The time her and Chapel spend together is so great. And they are just perfect together. Of course, what author is going to write about a couple that isn't perfect together, but still. And when she was just about to die and the way he just knew he couldn't live without her...ooo...I loved it!
It's total, unrepentant cheese...& that's just dandy when you're in the mood. :DThis series has been on/off my radar for years, but recently I was craving an unabashed vampire romance -- a mood that hasn't struck me for a long time. And...presto. I heartily enjoyed the Holy/Blood Grails, immortal mercenaries, & Templar connection,** & it shows definite potential as an overall series. But I rounded down because of the heavy maudlin angle to this particular couple. There just wasn't
