Jeaniene Frost - This Side of the Grave (book 5)

Half-vampire Cat Crawfield and her vampire husband Bones have fought for their lives, as well as for their relationship. But just when they’ve triumphed over the latest battle, Cat’s new and unexpected abilities threaten to upset a long-standing balance…

Masterless vampires realize they are disappearing targets for a growing zealot of ghouls govern by the hushed name of Apollyon.Whispering rumors cause fear that a war is on the horizon between the sister species (vampires and ghouls) if the attacks continue. Pointing fingers accuse Cat to be the cause, as the only other half-breed to exist since the failure of her replica, Joan of Arc. Forced to the edge, Cat and Bones go to New Orleans to seek ally from the ruling ghoul, Marie Laveau. Along with the help of many outstanding subplot returning characters, this exceptionally notable series carries through with exploding activity and badass twists. The well established and maturing romance between Cat and Bones develops with a rich fullness with each passing chapter. Adding the ceaselessly witty words and genuinely sharp cutting edge (that lets you know life is not always fair), Frost stands on top with another illustrious addition to the Night Huntress series.
