Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc has done it again. Just when the reader thinks they have reached the pinnacle of Ms. Scoyoc’s world of books, she surprises them again. The latest “Fallen From Shadow Found in Grace” takes the reader into a world of vampyres which no one has traveled before.
Farayne a young girl born way before her time and a free spirit takes a journey which leads her not only into her future but into centuries of futures. Ms. Scoyoc puts the reader in the heart and soul of this young woman as she makes life changing decisions and never looks back.
The reader feels the soul wrenching emotions and pain young Farayne experiences as she finds out she is the reason her mother is barren; that because she is a female as opposed to a male is the reason her father who is a control freak, hates her.
As I read this book it took me deeper and deeper into the heart of a very lonely and sad young woman. A young woman looking for not only love but solace for her wounded soul. She finds it in Garrison who takes her on yet another soul wrenching journey.
The love of Farayne and Garrison though bittersweet brings a tear to the eye and an ache in the heart.
Ms. Scoyoc has once again proven that even vampyres can find love and happiness even if just for a few centuries.
This book is a five star book.

Let me start by saying this is one of the fastest reviews that I have ever written. Not because I wanted to get it over with, but because I couldn’t tear myself away from the story. When I read the opening passage to the story, I had to send Andrea a message telling her how much that one passage just blew me away. As you know, the opener to a story is probably the most important thing an author writes. It has to hook the reader. This reader was hooked. Sometimes, unfortunately, the story tends to weaken afterwards. That is not the case here. The story just kept getting better.
Farayne is a bored socialite with a free spirit that she decides to answer. Her story and adventure is incredibly well crafted as we follow her exploits in life and love. The story is an epic tale of an ancient vampire and an eternal love that truly needs to be read. Add to that the drama of a woman, living with the guilt of leaving her mother barren, and a control freak father who hated the notion of Farayne being a female. A broken family is something I and many others can relate to, and you can’t help but feel for the character’s pain.
Before I go any further, remember that this is a romance. Even with the creatures of the night involved, there is a tale of true love here. I am not a fan of romance stories, no offense to any romance authors out there; I just can’t get into them. This story, however, was so well written I couldn’t help but love it!
Andrea is a beautiful soul with an unending well of talent. I am honored to know her and thankful for having the opportunity to read her latest book. I consider this a must read, and I give it 5 out of 5 bones!
