About this listen

Seventeen-year-old Lorelei Patio is the adopted daughter of 200-year-old vampire Sergio Patio. She never realized why her family has had to move so often or why she is not permitted to get too friendly with other young people. In fact, except for one shocking moment that seemed more like a dream, Lorelei never fully realized who and what her father was nor what her sisters were brought up to do for him. But one day, that all changed. Sergio’s "daughters" serve a very important purpose: they are all beautiful young ladies who can easily attract---and lure---men so that Sergio can feed on their blood. And now daddy expects Lorelei to be the obedient daughter he needs and bring him new victims.

But when Lorelei meets a shy, handsome young man named Buddy in school, she quickly falls in love with him. He feels the same way but wonders why she doesn't want to take him home to meet her father. Lorelei knows what will happen if she does and tries desperately to keep her two worlds apart, but she knows she can never truly escape her fate as a daughter of darkness. How will she manage these two worlds, and what will she have to give up to do so?

Different than other VC Andrew books

Unlike other VC Andrews books, this one didn’t grab my attention until nearly 1/2 way through. I also didn’t care for the voice of the narrator. I almost gave up on it, when it finally sparked my interest. Overall it’s an ok book.

Very slow start

Any additional comments?

This is not the usual V.C Andrews book. There is sort of incest, but not really because it is okay to be with family members if you are a vampire.

loved it, being reading vc Andrew since I was teenager and will keep rereading them

love the story line

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

It is interesting to note that VC Andrews's novels, which predate the Twilight series, contributed to the popularity of vampire literature. However, the recurring theme of incest in her books raises questions about the author's intentions. While her storytelling skills are undeniable, the consistent presence of incestuous relationships in her works warrants further examination. It is unclear whether this was a deliberate choice to evoke historical royal marriages or a personal fixation of the author.
