Review: Becoming the Dark Prince - Kerri Maniscalco
Review: Becoming the Dark Prince - Book #3.5 Stalking Jack the Ripper Series - Kerri Maniscalco - July 2019
Ever have those days where you want to
read, but everything you try is just not your cup of tea and grabbing you? I
was like that yesterday as it took me 5 times to get to something that would
keep my interest - everything else -the four previous titles were just DNFs.
When I get like that and I just really want to read, I find novellas are an
excellent tool as they just hit the reading spot and they end up being quick
reads as well. This was one I have had on my Kindle for a couple of years as I
enjoyed Books 1 and 2 but sadly Escaping Houdini was a DNF. This book is set
just after the Houdini but still at the same time upon the ship from the UK to
the US. There have been a few murders upon the ship and it looks like Thomas
Cresswell - our Dark Prince aka Dracula and Meso aka Faust along with Audrey
Wadsworth have captured the killer, but he isn't confessing to all of the
murders - has Jack the Ripper stowed away on the ship and entered US grounds?
In Becoming the Dark Prince, Audrey is hurt in a fight and Thomas is trying to
hold back his fighting instincts as he finally declares his love and intentions
for Audrey - can he hold the beast back that his father says is inside of him?
We also catch the end of the fling between Liz ( Audrey's cousin) and the
budding illusionist Harry Houdini. If you love YA historical fiction, then this
is the series for you as it not only has a strong historical focus but also a
hint of fantasy and romance set in the mid to late 1800s.
