Dr Olivia Maddox has interview lots of psychopaths in her career hoping that she can find out why they do what they do and if she is able to help them in the future. Now Olivia wants to go to purgatory, a place so dangerous the humans do not know about it. It is a maximum security prison for the supernatural who have gone bad. Werewolves and Vampires who kill for the love of it.

Shane is an FBI agent undercover on his way to purgatory as a prisoner to see what is happening on the island that houses the prison. On the boat ride over is when he first meets Olivia and he knows from the beginning that he is going to have to protect her.

As you would expect, things take a turn that Olivia did not expect and even though she believes at first that Shane is a prisoner, she does not know who else she can trust on the island. Shane has to blow his cover to protect her.

Off island things get interesting and she learns more of her heritage along that sometimes people are not who you thought they were. Shane ends up saving her in more ways than one and she makes a big transformation.

Its a fast paced novel based in the modern world, and puts in lots to keep you captivated and certainly takes you along for the ride.

Marked by the Vampire by Cynthia Eden is the second book in the purgatory series and is a paranormal romance but it can stand-alone. I have not read the first book in the series but am familiar with Cynthia Eden. This is the 5th of her books I have read and generally speaking I enjoy her work. This is a fun, quick read with some pretty strong world building. I thought the storyline was engaging and suspenseful but it needed a little more depth. I thought Olivia and Shane were both likeable character and there was some great chemistry between the.

It was okay.....I didn't really enjoy this book.....................................................................
