Riley is a half-vampire and half-werewolf and meets Quinn standing on her doorstep not wearing anything after she had just had a fight. She's weary of him and since he has amnesia, he doesn't help her because he can't answer any of her questions. He's a vampire, well-built, exceptionally handsome and even though you would think vampires would be pale, he has been alive so long that he can stay in the sun and get a tan. Throughout the series, this pair is so hot and cold it makes for a very entertaining read. Quinn has a distrust of werewolves because of one from his past and Riley gets tired of his judgmental and manipulative ways often. Even though he makes mistakes, she does as well with regards to any relationship between the two of them and I continued to root for them to get together. They had steam coming out of their ears almost every time they were around each other either from attraction or from anger.
Quotes:
“Which meant I got left with Quinn yet again. Given the time he was taking to make his decision, I wasn't exactly happy about that. I mean, putting me with him was like flashing chocolate my way then telling me I couldn't have it. It was just plain mean.”
"My skin crawled with sudden awareness, and I glanced around to see Quinn walking through the shadow provided by the towering fence. Although walking was something of a misnomer - gliding would have been more apt."

"I pulled my hand from his, but clenched my fingers to retain the warmth of his touch. That one reaction made me realize I had better be careful. Until I knew more about him, about what he was really up to, I'd better keep some distance. no matter how much my hormones were suggesting otherwise."
"This is your mate?" Quinn's voice was scathing. "Good Lord, I thought you had more taste than that."
