Lucy fights for her best friend Solange's right to lead a normal life, but Solange's life is anything but normal. If Solange is lucky she'll wake up dead on her sixteenth birthday.
There are quite a few problems in Solange's life with seven overprotective brothers, a vampire queen afraid of her power being threatened and an anti-vampire league trying to stake Solange's entire family.
My thoughts:
Hearts At Stake was one of the very first books I read this year. I recommend this young adult novel for those of you looking for a fun and fast paced read about vampires.
The story is alternating from being told between Lucy and Solange. My favorite was Lucy, I loved Lucky's character, she was feisty and fab best friend. I liked the way Nicholas, one of Solange's older brothers, acted like some very real teenage boys do when they're in love, by trying to pushing the girl away.
Harvey threw in a real surprise for me at the end of this book which I loved. A series I definitely want to continue with.
