Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
For centuries, Lucinda has endured her agonizing reality. As daughter of the High Lord of Hell,she rules over nothing, retrieving the occasional wayward demon and feeding off of the savage Monre-of whom she was a member before she died.
Then she encounters the Monre warrior Stefan, who offers himself to her. She is moved beyond measure by her desire for him-and soon finds herself drawn back into the heady eroticism of the Monre. There, she must carve out a home between the jealousy of the dead and the violence of the living, if she is to keep her newfound love-and life...

This book did not hold my interest. I have never read any of Sunny's books and I doubt it if I will ever again.

Book was great, I loved the way she tied in the Mona Lisa Books but gave this book its own creatures and charaters. Sunny was able to make this book its own story. I love the fresh new take on the mixed genre. Sunny is a great writer!!

Lucinda has spent centuries doing nothing more than feed off of the Monére and play escort returning demons to the underworld. She's grown tired of her life until everything changes in one moment. When she meets Stefan, a rogue Monere warrior who is acting as guardian to a young mixed breed Jonnie, something grabs her long dead heart and she can't leave them behind.
Lucinda's cadre of companions grows when she returns, then claims, another rogue Monére, Nico, and in so doing finds young Talon, a Floradëur (Flower of darkness) who was stolen from the underworld as a child. As Lucinda and her companions vow to return Talon to his home and find the demon responsible for stealing him, she finds herself bound to her men in such a way that separation would mean their death.
Lucinda, Darkly is strongly tied to the Monére, Children of the Moon series yet still stands apart as a unique story in its own right. Reading the Monére series may help a reader become more invested in this story, but new visitors to the worlds Sunny has created will also enjoy this novel.
Meeting Lucinda in previous novellas in the Monére, Children of the Moon series made me want to learn more about her. So I was curious enough to pick up Lucinda, Darkly and read her story. While I think the Monére series is a bit more original and better written, I did enjoy this book. Lucinda is a study in contrasts, a demon with a heart and longing for a new life that even being the daughter of the High Lord of Hell can't give her.
Lucinda, Darkly is a classic quest novel, with a twist and spiced up with lots of hot sex. And is it ever hot! The passion between the characters made me blush on more than one occasion. Lucinda is a demon who actually has some human qualities, as evidenced in her attachments to the men and boys under her protection. I thought Lucinda spent a little too much time bemoaning her fate and trying to convince herself she must remain alone, but I found her to be a very likeable protagonist. I could not help but become emotionally involved in her story.

I very much enjoyed this author's book "Mona Lisa Awakening," so I tried this book. It was a let down.
CAUTION SPOILERS: A former Monere Queen died and has been living as a demon for hundreds of years. All of a sudden she falls in love with Stefan, a Monere rogue. They had one short interaction and fall in love. She had never fallen for anyone for hundreds of years. There was no logic for it to happen now. Shortly after that, she forms bonds with two others, Nico and Talon. Again, she had never formed these kinds of bonds before. They need to journey to a couple of places. There are some dangers along the way. She decides they will be better off without her and plans to separate herself from them. Each of them wants to stay with her rather than be with another. She eventually agrees and keeps them as her 3 men. Nothing was interesting about this book, not the characters or the plot, not even the sex scenes. Sexual language: strong. Number of sex scenes: four. Setting: similar to current day within the U.S. Genre: paranormal erotic romance.

While not listed as a part of the "Mona Lisa" series, this seems to be part of the overall Monere series. One thing I love about Sunny's stories is I can't guess what's going to happen next. So many authors stories end as expected, but Sunny has no problems going her own direction. Her books always leave me wondering what's subsequent and anxiously waiting fot the subsequent installment. Truly an ehgrossing and enjoyable read and I can hardly wait to get my subsequent Sunny book.
