Succubus Dreams

So last night I finished Succubus Dreams by Richelle Mead. I cried near the end, it was terrible. I love books where the main characters have issues, and nothing goes right, but heartbreak? No, I hate that. It just wrenches at me. I know I should be used to it by now, but whenever this comes up in a series, it makes me just want to quit reading them. Luckily I have always forced myself to keep reading, and in the end things turn out. Maybe not for the better in my opinion, but at least some of the sting of the heartache fades. Take the Sookie Stackhouse series for example. I was so upset to find out Bill had been betraying her the whole time, but now she is with Eric and that actually seems better. I think the hardest for me to swallow was when Kisten died in Kim Harrison' Rachel Morgan series. I cried for a really long time over that one. I know I am silly, but I still hold out some crazy hope that he will come back somehow, that or she ends up with Trent.

Anyway back to the book of the day. Even though they have split, for some crazy reason I just do not see it as permanent. This is the fourth book in the series, and all along there has been hints and allusions to there being something more between them. I may just be nuts but I am thinking Seth just might be either her husband or her original lover reincarnated from the past. Then there is the issue about her contract, something from that time is an issue today. The sixth book is supposed to come out next year. I have a feeling I will be really anxious for it once I finish the 4th and 5th books. But, then again waiting for things has never been one of my strengths.
