Guilty Pleasures by Laurell K. Hamilton


Today we'll talk about one of the sexiest heroines, lustful ever written: Anita Blake. Eyes and hair blacks, a strong character, and a particular craft ... the "re-animation" at Animators Inc. of St. Louis. You do not know what it is? Well, Anita, with  "special" powers, awakens the dead in cemeteries for questioning ... about what? From the evidence in the processes of murder, to inheritance disputes, there are many occasions to create "temporarily" zombie. But Anita does not stop here. Beside her full time job, in fact, is also a vampire slayer authorized (and here there is not need too much explanation, no?) Oh, yes, because in this world the supernatural beings exist and are well known, and the law of man has equipped for: if a supernatural being (vampires, werewolves, etc..) commits a murder, the law'll provide a "contract", thanks to which Anita or those few who do her work, has the right to delete the "monster". And Anita is very good at this, so that the supernatural beings have saddled a tender nickname ... "The Slayer" ...
The St. Louis that offers us Laurell K. Hamilton, is a special world: mysterious, sensual, and very dangerous, because if you'd have doubts, you are assured that this  "martial" law on supernatural beings does not detract them at all to commit the worst crimes ... 
Since the second chapter we meet Jean Claude, a super sexy vampire who prefer as weapon, the sensuality  to the brute force (which still does not hesitate to use). And sensuality is just one of the main drivers of this series. If in fact, in this first novel, our protagonist seems so cold as to seem frigid, you can be sure that going forward in the saga, her eros will take over ... and in a lot of ways very "atypical" and various ...

Oh yes, I must admit that I have loved this series (which still has not arrived at the end), although novel after novel, often turns into a sort of "50 shades" version of urban fantasy ... But honestly, if you love the genre, it's not so bad ... indeed! ;)
So, you just need to arrange the first book  and give you the reading ... It will not be a waste of time!

RATING: 8/9 (this is the first urban fantasy book I've read, and since then I am madly in love like that, so maybe I was a bit tight with the vote. Beacuse, if it was not for Anita, I never found out the full urban fantasy).

SUITABLE FOR ABOUT: who loves a good novel full of action, but if you go along with the saga, you have to be prepared and not too picky: the parties take over super HOT!

READ ALSO: This item is difficult. I sincerely believe that Laurell K. Hamilton is the author of more hot like that, it's hard to find someone else to write about sex in a more valid and "colorful" way. So, if you liked this saga, you should also give a chance to the  Merry Gentry' series, also written by her. Here the events are still HOTTEST, and instead of vampires we are talking about fairies and related ... If not, if you want to change the author, you can try Kery Arthur, and her most famous saga, whose main character Riley Jensen, a rare hybrid of vampire and werewolf. Here, too, there is a high rate of seduction, although less and less respect to Anita and Merry ... Belive me!
