Taste Blurb:
At Barinkoff Academy, there’s only one rule: no students on campus after curfew. Phoenix McKay soon finds out why when she is left behind at sunset. A group calling themselves night students threaten to taste her flesh until she is saved by a mysterious, alluring boy. With his pale skin, dark eyes, and mesmerizing voice, Demitri is both irresistible and impenetrable. He warns her to stay away from his dangerous world of flesh eaters. Unfortunately, the gorgeous and playful Luka has other plans.

Unfortunately, the gorgeous and playful Luka has other plans.
When Phoenix is caught between her physical and her emotional attraction, she becomes the keeper of a deadly secret that will rock the foundations of an ancient civilization living beneath Barinkoff Academy.Phoenix doesn’t realize until it is too late that the closer she gets to both Demitri and Luka the more she is plunging them all into a centuries old feud.
My Review:
I absolutely enjoyed reading this book.It was very intriguing.Kate puts a new spin on what we refer to as "zombies" also know as "flesh eaters".I have read a few books with zombies in the but not one that wholey about zombies.I heard good thins about this book and wanted to see for my self what all the rave was about. I was not sure if I would like it but once I started the book I was instantly drawn in.
Phoenix is a very trouble and broken girl,who is thrust into a world that is dangerous. Once she sees part of that world she is curios to know more. She runs into some "Night Students",when so accidentally ends up on campus after curfew.Why are their "Night Students" when no one is suppose to be on campus after curfew?Why do they keep making references to tasting me?
Phoenix is a very dynamic character.She has a hard time with authority and lets whatever she is thinking slip out of her month.Inside is she broken and alone,but refuses to let anyone get close enough to penetrate the wall she has put around her heart.Once she is in Zhamvy City she must learn to watch what she says and decide if she will let someone in and if she does just who that someone will be.
Dimitri and Luka are almost total opposites but both want the same thing,Phoenix. Phoenix is instantly drawn to Dimitri who is a lot like her.They are both stubborn and go head to head in an argument. Dimitri,though he wishes to give into his desires,pushes those though selfish wants aside to fulfill his duty to his people.While Luka is the playful guy who doesn't always play by the rules.He is just as broken as she is. Luka runs from duty instead of embracing it.Dray believes he can use Phoenix to save his people but that may come at a higher price than any of them are willing to pay.Can she help Luka overcome his inner turmoil without falling for him .Can she help save a kingdom from dying without causing chaos that could tear it apart? Will she give her heart to Dimitri, Luka,or no one because she believes she is too broken to love and be loved?
Author Bio:
When Kate Evangelista was told she had a knack for writing stories, she did the next best thing: entered medical school. After realizing she wasn’t going to be the next Doogie Howser, M.D., Kate wandered into the Literature department of her university and never looked back. Today, she is in possession of a piece of paper that says to the world she owns a Literature degree. To make matters worse, she took Master’s courses in creative writing. In the end, she realized to be a writer, none of what she had mattered. What really mattered? Writing. Plain and simple, honest to God, sitting in front of her computer, writing. Today, she has four completed Young Adult novels.
