***MY HONEST REVIEW OF  A WALK IN THE SUN***

 Nicholas’ mother died giving him birth. His father blamed him, so there was no relationship between them. As a young adult, Nicholas gets bitten and turns into a vampire. The only other person that knows, is his fiancé Elena. When a black magician becomes smitten with Elena, she rejects him. This starts a war between Nicholas and the magician.

I felt so sorry for Nicholas throughout the entire book. It was a very entertaining read. I liked the idea of a vampire who still prayed to God and only did good. I hope that this becomes a series, for I feel the character of Nicholas can provide more interesting reading.
