My life had always been blissfully, wonderfully normal. But it only took one moment to change everything. Suddenly, my sister, Georgia, and I were orphans. We put our lives into storage and moved to Paris to live with my grandparents. And I knew my shattered heart, my shattered life, would never feel normal again. Then I met Vincent. Mysterious, sexy, and unnervingly charming, Vincent Delacroix appeared out of nowhere and swept me off my feet. Just like that, I was in danger of losing my heart all over again. But I was ready to let it happen. Of course, nothing is ever that easy. Because Vincent is no normal human. He has a terrifying destiny, one that puts his life at risk every day. He also has enemies . . . immortal, murderous enemies who are determined to destroy him and all of his kind. While I'm fighting to piece together the remnants of my life, can I risk putting my heart—as well as my life and my family's—in jeopardy for a chance at love?

This was a really interesting book. I never thought I would enjoy a book about zombies (or revenants if you want to be specific). Vincent and his “family” were by far the best parts of the book. Each of them had a unique personality that was fun to read.
Plum has such a unique way of writing that really intrigued me. I really enjoyed her prose and dialogue.
I read this a few of years ago, when I was still insisting in making YA my primary reading source. I remember not being able to turn a couple of pages without an eye-roll. There was nothing remarkable about the characters, they were just your standard, run of the mill, lackluster characters, the chemistry between the lovebirds was non-existent, their attraction was forced and the plot was so poorly constructed that it was obvious it wasn't there to tell a story, but as a setting for the soap. Another reviewer said that it tried too hard to copy Twilight and I can't say I see it otherwise.
I've been lucky lately for choosing the right books to read, although I'm not a romance person at all! I'm shocked to say that I pretty much liked the romance in this book and the past YA books I read before it.
This book is amazing, since I speak French very well and I know France, It was such a fun thing to read the story and imagine it at the same time :).
It's a really good one. My favorite part was when Kate turned into this courageous girl and fought Lucien for Vincent's and Georgia's lives... No more spoilers ;).
Great read ^_^
