Product Description:
In a world of shadows and dark, cosuming hungers, desire is the deadliest weapon...
For journalist Dylan Alexander, it began with the discovery of a hidden tomb, thrusting her into the center of a gathering storm of violence and secrets. But nothing is as dangerous as the scarred, lethally seductive man who rises from the shadows to draw her into his world of dark desire and endless night.
Fueled by pain and rage over a shattering betrayal, the warrior Rio has pledged his life to the war against the Rogues. He will let nothing stand in his way—least of all a mortal woman with the power to expose the entire vampire race. For an ancient evil has been awakened, and a stunning darkness is on the rise. Suddenly Dylan is powerless to resist Rio’s touch, even as she uncovers a shocking link to her own past. And now she must choose: Leave Rio’s midnight realm, or risk it all for the man who has shown her true passion and the infinite pleasures of the heart. . . .

Spoiler:
Next to Tegan I think Rio is one of the most likable of the breed warriors. Dylan (breedmate) is hands down my favorite breedmate. She is smart, sassy, and realistic. The love story is not near as intense as it is with the other characters from the very first 3 books, but then again I think Lara Adrian was realistic with these two characters. It is nice to get lost in the dream world when it comes to these books but the story line between Rio and Dylan is more down to earth -- Dylan dyeing mother, Rio's broken heart and scared face.
What is great about this book is the sub-story. Its involved, suspenseful, and keeps you reading. I thought Lara Adrian had some great twist and I'm so looking forward to number 5!

I finished this book in one evening. It probably had nothing to do with the fact that I already mostly knew (and was sort of attached to) the characters or that the main 'hero' of this novel had so much to overcome.
Rio, one of the Breed warriors, was betrayed by his Breedmate Eva, in the very very first book. Her betrayal nearly killed him; scarring his body and soul so badly that by the time the fourth book rolls around Rio is ready to end it all.
Before he can set off the explosives that would be necessary to destroy evidence of a cave crypt of an Ancient One (and seal himself inside) a woman enters the cave where he had been hiding and sees the glyphs on the wall, the human remains and the empty crypt. Unable to let her just walk away while knowing more than she should (especially since the woman is a journalist!) Rio follows her and eventually has to kidnap her. But containing the information and the woman he kidnapped (Dylan) is much more difficult than Rio had imagined.
Dylan's unique gift as a Breedmate allows her to see Breedmates who have died, who have something they want to tell her or want her to do. This isn't something that Dylan understands at first, never having learned about her potential as a Breedmate. The ghost of Eva actually led Dylan to Rio and helps Rio locate Dylan after she is kidnapped by Dragos (the villain!).
It was very easy to read and certainly furthers the main storyline plot. Can't wait to snatch up the subsequent one this December.

Good but not as good as the previous three books in the series. If your a fan of the series it gives good info and updates and is not bad. If your new to the series, go back and read the 1st three also... Its worth it.

I didn't like this one. I felt that it, "the romance" , was too fast. I like Rio and Dylan, just thought this was a rushed story. By favorite of this series was Midnight Awakening (Tegan's story), than Midnight Kiss (Lucan's story) and finally Kiss of Crimson (Dante's story). Midnight Rising was less than okay. I felt like I wasted my money on this one. But, I will not give up. I still have hope for Book 5.
