Review:
Stars: 4
I started reading this book thinking it would be scarier like her book The Hacienda. I did not find it spooky at all. The vampires were an interesting part of the story though.
I loved the romance in the story. It wasn't full of smut. It was a clean, sweet romantic story. The end made me desire a sequel so I can know about Nena and Nestor's future.

Questions:
"If he wanted to stand on the patio of a casa mayor that was all his own, he had to work for it. It was easy to work hard, when he knew what he wanted."
Share a time you put in extra effort to earn something you wanted.
Was the work easier because you knew what you wanted?
"Because without work and a distant goal, he did not know what else he was living for."
Can you relate to Nestor?
Do you desire the goal or desire the journey to the goal?
Is there ever an end to "goals"?
"If he [Nestor] hid his weakness from the world, then the world could not hit him where it hurt the most."
Does hiding your feelings/emotions really make it hurt less?
Does opening up truly allow the world to hurt you more?
It seems the people that had been attacked had no memory of the attack.
Do you think it was a tender mercy to the victims to not remember the attack?
Or was it a curse to not have the knowledge to fear what was attacking?
When Don Feliciano confronted Nestor once he returned to Los Ojuelos, Nena does not defend or help Nestor.
How would the story change if she had?
How do you think Nena's family would have reacted if she did?
Whose betrayal was worst: Nestor (leaving when Nena "died" and then again after the war) or Nena (not defending Nestor)?
Why?
Do you think it was right for Nena to free the vampires?
Is she responsible if/when they hurt someone else?
