Clouds are brewing over Cadogan House, and recently turned vampire Merit can't tell if this is the darkness before the dawn or the calm before the storm. With the city itself in turmoil over paranormals and the state threatening to pass a paranormal registration act, times haven't been this precarious for vampires since they came out of the closet. If only they could lay low for a bit, and let the mortals calm down.
That's when the waters of Lake Michigan suddenly turn pitch black-and things really start getting ugly.
Chicago's mayor insists it's nothing to worry about, but Merit knows only the darkest magic could have woven a spell powerful enough to change the very fabric of nature. She'll have to turn to friends old and new to find out who's behind this, and stop them before it's too late for vampires and humans alike.

*Contains Very MINOR SPOILERS if you haven’t read the previous books in this series.
I had very expectations for Drink Deep, specially after the events of Hard Bitten and the flabbergasting ending Chloe gave to it. I mean, tell me about ONE single fan of the series that wasn’t completely shocked with what happened... I dare you! LOL
So, I went into Drink Deep trembling, but trusting that Chloe would fix it and mend our broken hearts and after finishing Drink Deep I was equal parts satisfied and disappointed.
On the one hand, Chloe crossed another line in Drink Deep that i did not expect at all, but I did appreciate it and thought it was a very nice twist to the over all plot line of the series (even though I had sort of guessed it whilst reading the novel).
However, when it came to mending my broken heart, Chloe didn’t quite achieved the goal. I mean, yeah, I was soothed and got some resolution, but the way it was done I felt was a little lackluster.
I am really trying to steer away from spoilers LOl So I‘ll leave it at that and just say that over all, Drink Deep is a very solid addition to the series. It might not be the best one, but it’s quite enjoyable and made me want to get my hands on Bitting Cold just that much more.

I was definitely stunned with the last book.
I too was a little disappointed with this one and guessed the who and what before half way through. But it is still worth a read. Check out my review at http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/162384856. I did rate it a little higher with a 4.
It is hard to talk about without giving away spoilers.
@Wild
I agree, it was def still worth a read hehe
