The Daystar

Constantine Draegon, the ultimate Templar bad boy, is a loose cannon waiting to go off. Scarred by his childhood, he has never known anything but darkness except when Lexine is around. Yet he fears to soil her with his touch.

Lexine ‘Lex’ Parker might be innocent but she knows what she wants. And that happens to be Constantine, yet she is unable to convince him of that. That is until things start heating up and he might be the only one that can save her.

In THE DAYSTAR, Ms. Lyons has graced us with a rich tale of love, healing and redemption. The second book in the Templar Vampire series, THE DAYSTAR stands on its own merits yet this reviewer does recommend reading THE MIDNIGHT SUN for the back-story.

Because of abuse during his mortal life, Constantine has never really believed in redemption or heaven. He just tries to stay on the path for the sake of his brother Templars. With flashbacks to his childhood, the reader can easily understand why he is such a bastard and tries to push everyone away from him.

Lex is also a strong character. From the glimpses of her past, one would almost wonder why she is not a spoiled princess. Yet she is a surprisingly mature and nice person that this reviewer would enjoy having coffee with her and chatting.

Readers will also get a chance to visit with Allie and the rest of the Templars from THE MIDNIGHT SUN.

This reviewer does want to recommend that Ms Lyons is an author to watch out for. Her first book was good yet THE DAYSTAR, her second book is so much deeper and richer that there is really no comparison between the two. Be sure to rush out and get your copy today.
