A premise that was interesting where a Black woman who has escaped from slavery joins the union army to fight against slavery and new blooded vampires all while seeking revenge against a powerful vampire who destroyed her family. The two main characters share plenty of witty banter and bicker like an old married couple which left me giggling at some of their interactions. 

I thought it was going to be a better book in general, however, the progression of the storyline felt a bit chaotic and poorly thought out. There were plot points included that felt like they were there to waste pages and others where the plot wasn’t described as well as I would have liked. 

The action packed scenes were few and far between but when they did occur, the characters really came to life to work together and get out of their challenging situations.
