Masters of the Consulate Books 1 – 4 A Vampire Paranormal Series by Sylvia Black – Review by Jenni Bishop

Master Descallia (Masters of the Consulate, #1)Master Descallia by Sylvia Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Master Descallia is the first book in the Masters of the Consulate series by Sylvia Black. Sylvia is a new author to me, and I was hoping this paranormal tale would be enjoyable. But what I got was so much more. This dark Vampire romance story instantly drew me in and hooked in deep, so much so that I was suddenly lost to the beauty of the harsh world that Sylvia had created right from the start. It is fast paced, intense, full of suspense and certainly sizzling. You know it’s a good story when you see your husband standing there waving his arms at you because you are so lost in the story that you didn’t hear him the first two times. I wish it were a little longer.

Master Tuscano: Dark Vampire Romance (Masters of the Consulate Book 2) by Sylvia Black is a dark paranormal Vampire romance story and is another great book in this series. As with the first book Master Descallia I was instantly lost in the story and to the beauty of the harsh world that Sylvia created. Her world building and characterization is spot on. It is also just as fast paced, intense, full of suspense and steaming hot as the first book. I am hooked on this series and love what Sylvia has done so far. She has quickly become someone who I will follow to see what else she brings. More, I want more.

Master Trentino (Masters of the Consulate #3)Master Trentino by Sylvia Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This author started out with a bang with this paranormal vampire romance series, and it just keeps on getting better. The narrative makes it so easy to get lost amongst the pages of this deliciously dark tale. With rogue shifters and witches, vampires and things that go bump in the night, the masters have been betrayed and now they fight for survival in their own world.
The world building and characters make this tale enticing and delightful and takes you to a place where the world is harsh but with it comes a sense of beauty as they fight to protect their mates.
The suspenseful story is fast paced, intense, and hot, hot, hot. Don’t miss out on this wonderful series. I can’t wait for the next book.

Master Romano (Masters of the Consulate #4)Master Romano by Sylvia Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely love this series with these seriously sexy men of the dark and each book gets deliciously better than the last.

Master Romano is the fourth book in the Masters of the Consulate in this paranormal vampire romance series. It is so easy to embrace the world of darkness with vampires and get lost amongst the pages of this dark tale. I have said it before and I will say it again the world building and characters make this tale enticing and delightful. Sylvia paints a vivid picture for a world that is harsh and yet comes with a deep sense of beauty that is hot…….

With paranormal beings, century old feuds, one particular sassy witch, some seriously sexy vampires and the Consulate the story is intense and keeps page after page turning. This fast-paced tale is full of suspense and is sexy mexy. Don’t miss out on this wonderful series.

These fanged lords of darkness (I love the authors description) will do anything to protect what is theirs even if it means going against and old order.

Make sure you read these books in order and start today because you are seriously missing out if you don’t.

I can’t wait for what comes next from Sylvia.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another exciting chapter in the masters of the consulate series. This novel gives more of the back story in the war between the vampires, the shifters, the witches and the syndicate. But ultimately it is about the love story between Christian and Delilah ❤️ the trials they endure and how she proves her loyalty…. Along the way a few very hot sex scenes but if you are a true Sylvia Black fan you would expect nothing less than super hot.

I love how Master Descallia flows right into Master Tuscano but they could be read separate as well. It kept me captivated, on my toes the whole time and I wasn’t able to predict the outcome. I love the mischief and companionship between the characters as well. Would definitely recommend.

Master Tuscano (Book Two in the Masters of the Consulate Series)
By Sylvia Black

Master Tuscano is the second book in this series. This book is fast paced but is an easy read. This book centres around Christian who is another if the masters and Delilah who the Consulate does not like or approve of. Christian appears to be pig headed and will protect Delilah from anyone. As for Delilah being human, she does not stay around to hear things that she feels she does not need to listen to. Being human is one thing the Consulate sees as a problem for them. Now as with all epic stories such as this one, things go pear shaped, Christian decides he needs to turn Delilah into a vampire and basically does not care what the consulate will think as there is no way he is going to lose the one that he loves. Will Christian be in trouble with the Consulate for his move with Delilah? Really enjoying this series and so glad I decided to read the books.

This is the second book in the series and it focuses on a different master and his mate. I love the characters and reading about their love story. I also love reading more about all the other masters and the drama and suspense in the vampire world.

I like that each book in the series focuses on one different master and his love interest while moving the story along so that all the books are tied together, and I look forward to reading the rest of the series.

What an incredible second installment of the Masters of the Consulate series! This was a wonderfully steamy read with the plot continuing from the first book. I do highly recommend reading these books in order as you may find yourself quite lost without the previous explanations. Delilah and Christian have an unexplainably strong chemistry that you can feel jumping right off the pages! Delilah is quite a strong FMC and I found her relatable. Christian wants to protect her and when push comes to shove, will he do the only thing he can to save her? I am truly excited to see where this series is going as I absolutely love the tropes and characters so far. If you’re looking for a paranormal romance that you can read in an afternoon, definitely pick this up! Don’t forget to get the first book in the series as well to get the full experience.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Christian and Delilah’s love story is one that we all strive for, the amount of trust and love they have for each other is obvious from the first page. Even though they get on each other’s nerves they never stay mad long and the communication between them is amazing. When we meet them, they’re already struggling due to the fact that the Consulate tried to deny Christian’s request to take Delilah as her mate while she was human. Then Delilah’s life is put in danger, Once found its obvious to Christian that he’ll do absolutely anything for her and doesn’t care about the consequences or the Consulates opinion on her. While Christian wants her to heal and recover from the traumatic experience, Delilah wants revenge and will stop at nothing to get it but there’s only so much a human can do in a supernatural world. When a confrontation turns deadly and Delilah is caught in the crossfires, Christian refuses to even entertain the idea of existence without her and changes her. Can she adapt to her new world and rules? Will Delilah and Christians flame burn brighter or burn out??

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 2nd book in the Dark Vampire series and it can be read as a standalone, but (as always) I recommend reading the series in order. This is the story of Christian and Delilah and to really understand this story, you must read the 1st book.
Once again, Sylvia Black kills it with her character development and her plot lines. I just love how she hooks the readers in with her no nonsense and fast-paced plots. And I adore how much effort she puts into her characters. She makes you invested in them.
Christian is one tough, stubborn vampire and he will do whatever it takes to avenge the love of his life, Delilah. Even though I did find Delilah annoying at times, the love she has for Christian is redeeming. This wasn’t my favorite of the series, but definitely worth the read (for Christian if nothing else ;)).

Christian Tuscano is out to seek retribution for what happened to his mate at the hands of the Syndicate. Delilah disliked the world Christian lived in but was turned by him in order to save her life. She herself goes after those that have wronged her and puts their relationship in jeopardy. The witches that are intent on taking vampire land have now aligned themselves with others that want the vampires out of power and have given refuge to Delilah. Will she prove to the Consulate and Christian that she is worthy or being his mate and staying by his side? Or has she gone too far by accepting help from the witches?

The second book in the series did not disappoint! In the second story it starts off with Delilah who has gone through some horrific things after being captured and taken away from Tuscano. This story perfectly weaves in the continuation from the first story and was one that was just as great. The way that the author weaves the tales of these dark vampire romance novels has me entranced. I cannot wait to continue to read the continuation of the books and see what else happens!

Great series! It ties in police detective work with vampires. The real world, in this case, is the human world we know, mixed in with vampire bars and a vampire overlord. If you like vampires, world building, police work, and romance, this series is for you.
Book 2 is about a man who loves a woman and would do everything for her. But will she do everything for him even though he’s the one that changed her into something she wasn’t even sure she wanted to be? Her friends don’t accept the new her, but how far will they go to mess up her new life?

As the overall story line continues for the Masters of the Consulate series this book focuses on Christian and Delilahs story. As in the first book of the series there is a BDSM theme and may be a trigger for some.
Master Tuscano is pure blood who feel in love with a human and the Consulate makes their unhappiness known to the two. Upon learning that she isn’t what the Consulate deems an acceptable mate for a Master, especially because she has no plans to be converted Delilah runs. While living with a witch coven she is kidnapped, once she is rescued Christian cares for her and tries to prove to her that she is what he wants regardless of the Consulates view. Delilah does not make it easy though. She runs under the pretense that she has to take care of her torturers because she does not want that on Christians head. Unfortunately, things do not go as planned and Christian must turn her or lose her and he just is not willing to do that. As they work to overcome the challenges and misunderstanding between both each other and the consulate While I love Christian’s character Delilah stirs mixed feelings for me. In moments she feels too naive in the story to me but by the end I feel she has matured enough belong. Can’t wait to see how the overall story carries to the next book.

This is the second story in the “Masters of the Consulate” series. It is an interesting world this author has created. It is a paranormal read about Christian and Delilah. This is an interesting and intriguing story. great paranormal, vampire romance series. Each book can be read as a stand-alone, but it’ll make for much better reading and more enjoyment if the series is read in order as there is a background story running along in the background of the romance storyline. The ongoing storyline of the vampires and their struggles with others that is running through this series. The author has done a great job of creating a great storyline with many twists and turns that keep you entertained and not wanting to put the book down.

I have never read a book that started in the middle of the relationship. It was such a fresh and exciting perspective. We get to see how Christian and Delilah figure out how to deal with their love against all odds. They have a past, and we get a chance to watch them work through issues while dealing with vampire opposition and a battle for power between species. Another domineering and sexy vampire master, the book begins right where the first one left off and changes perspective. I’m glad I read the first book before starting this one, so I had more background of what was happening. Start with the first book and you won’t want to stop!

This is the second book in the Masters of Consulate series. This series has me hooked and this is only book 2! I love how this author has created such an elaborate world that just pulls me in and makes me want to stay. This is Christian and Delilah’s story. Christian saves his love, from death, by turning her. Did that put her in more danger? Delilah is a very strong female character, which I am always a fan of.
This book was full of true love being tested. If you are a fan of vampires, witches, romance, danger and suspense, pick up this series to read.

The second book of the series is dedicated to Tuscano and Delilah. It takes off immediately after the events of book 1. Highly recommend reading book 1 first as it will help to know the motivation behind the events in this book. The author’s writing is on point – fantastic world building and wonderful characters. The book has it all – vampires, werewolves, witches, action and romance. A series that has me hooked. Bring me book 3 now!

Christian Tuscano is angry when we fist meet him. Delilah, the woman he loves, has been treated horribly by the Vegas syndicate. Christian must find out who gave the orders to take women to be traded to a human trafficking group. Not only that the syndicate was attempting to make the humans believe that the vampires were the ones selling the women to the traffickers.
I really enjoyed this book. Christian and Delilah have great chemistry and each one is trying his or her best to accomplish something so the other doesn’t have to live with tough consequences.

wow! this second book really had me going! This time it picks up where book 1 left off but instead its from Christians and Delilah’s point of view. This author has no problem with writing headstrong female leads. After her kidnapping, Delilah does not let that stop her from getting her revenge, but that pathway leads to her dying and Christian having to change her into a vampire. This does not bode well for either one of them. It shakes the whole vampire world and underworld to their core and not a lot of people are happy with this change. Christian is a good male lead and his character progression is a little bit slower to change. He is very much a ” I don’t care” kind of person and doesn’t always take no for an answer.
I loved reading this book and everything happens so fast and wasn’t dragged out at all. I wish it did answer some questions I had from book 1, but hope fully book 3 answers them all! I cant wait to see what happens next!

This is the 2nd book in this great paranormal, vampire romance series. Technically each book can be read as a stand-alone but it will make for much better reading and more enjoyment if the series is read I order as there is a background story running along in the background of the romance storyline.
We were introduced to Master Christian Tuscano and Delilah in the first book in the series and this book starts at the exact point where book one finishes. This time Tuscano and Delilah are the main characters but we do still have the characters from book one playing a large role in this book.
I really enjoyed reading Tuscano and Delilah’s story. I was intrigued by both of them in book one and was glad that they got to tell their own story. I love that the book is written in dual POV so we get to see what’s going through the head of both main characters.
I’m really gripped by the ongoing storyline of the vampires and their struggles with others that is running through this series. The author has done a great job of creating a great storyline with many twists and turns that keep you entertained and not wanting to put the book down.
Book 3 is already waiting on my kindle for me to dive into and I can’t wait to find out what happens next.

We keep the story alive and it is an adventure and experience of the dark and experience.
I have always imagined being a vampire.
If you had no other choice but to turn…..
I give this author great credit to focus on new characters within the same series.
Book two is a great bridge to book three.

Christian and Delilah work to defy the odds together. I’m so glad that this second story in this series is about Christian and Delilah because I’ve been waiting since book one to find out more about the two of them! He is so powerful but also protective of his love who is still human. She’s kidnapped by horrible human traffickers that are trying to get back at the vampires to gain more power for themselves. The horror that she witnessed while she was there is enough to rock anyone to the core and so once again she runs from Christian. There are so many forces working against them but they have a deep love that can’t be ignored or denied. When fate decides for them that it’s time for her to become a vampire she quickly has to adjust and soon realizes that she was more ready than she realized. I really enjoyed watching Delilah embrace her powers as she becomes stronger and fights to protect her new family. I’m so excited to read the next book in this series!

Forbidden Love, bad choices and second chances!
Master Tuscano is just as good as Master Descallia if not better.
In this book the Syndicate, witches, shifters, rogue vampires and Consulate seem to all have their own agendas. These additional characters add to the story very well.

Delilah ran off with the witches because she was denied the life with Christian that she wanted by the Consulate. She seeks refuge with the witches who treat her kind, even though they have a long-standing vendetta with the vampires.
When Christian found her after her abduction, he seeks revenge. He doesn’t realize she wants her own revenge. That is, until she keeps disobeying his direct orders and darn the consequences! (Even though she enjoys the consequences very much 😉)

Sylvia Black brings Master Toscano in as the hero of this book. A vampire of the Consulate in love with a human. When Delilah is left dead at his feet he takes her to to the underworld to be with him. The problem being…he didn’t get permission from the Consulate first, and Delilah has never been a fan of the underworld. Right from the start this book is filled with conflict, passion, and action. A gripping novel from start to finish following a human and a vampire in love trying to fight for their right to be together. There is really no one as formidable as a vampire in love.

Master Tuscano: Dark Vampire Romance (Masters of the Consulate Book 2)Master Tuscano: Dark Vampire Romance by Sylvia Black
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A dark vampire mafia romance. What’s not to love about that sentence?

Master Tuscano should really be read after book 1, Master Descalia, for the greatest understanding as Tuscano has continuation of the “us v them” storyline from book 1. Semi-spoiler: That storyline will continue in book 3 too.

Here we get to explore the romance and mating of Christian Tuscano and Delilah, who we were introduced to in book 1. Christian and Delilah yearn for one another despite the consulate not approving of their relationship.

I enjoyed Christian and Delilah as a couple and them coming together despite outward forces trying to keep them apart. I like how the author switches the first person POV between Christian and Delilah because it gives us more insight as to what they’re each thinking and why they’re doing things. Delilah is a spitfire who isn’t going to just sit down and let the men deal with the issues they’re facing, yet she can also be submissive to Christian, sometimes.

It was interesting to see where Luciana and Salvatore were in their relationship now and how that continued to grow. Also, we’re reading about it from two other character’s perspectives, so it’s a fun turn-about. I still love Embry and the levity she brings to even the most serious of situations. Also, who doesn’t love a female who’s confident enough in herself to basically waitress and walk around a club topless and flaunting her nipple piercings? I hope to read more about Embry specifically.

While I overall enjoyed the story and the characters, I can only give this book a 3.5 rating as there were inconsistencies that kept pulling me out of reading to try and understand. Also, while this is a fantasy novel (hello paranormal beings) some pf the things that happen are outside the realm of possibilities, like transporting yourself half way around the world in a few seconds soon after becoming a vampire.

Trigger warnings: non sexual dub-con (dubious consent), rehashing of sexual assault and trafficking, anal sex, fictional death and gruesome beatings.

After the kidnapping and trafficking Delilah was saved from, she’s had to process the trauma and emotions that came with those experiences. At the same time, the conversation about what her and Christian are has been looming in the background for months. Wanting to be his mate as a human has come with more strings than what she thought was possible. Now, it’s her turn to take revenge on those that hurt her. Vampire or not, Delilah with use the resources she has to gain control back in her life.

I liked this sequel but I didn’t really enjoy it as much as I did the first. The author repeated a lot of the tropes she used in the first book so a lot of surprise I felt in the first book were not there when I encountered similar situations in this second book. Over all I think Delilah was a decent character but I feel like she was too impulsive which wound her up in more dangerous situations than if she worked through things with Christian or even talking with Lucianna and Embry. I was a little invested in the relationship but I really appreciated some of the choices Delilah made in the final few chapters. I’d be interested in seeing what happens in book three but not sure how quickly I would get to it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Master Christian Tuscano is the head of the Tuscano house and he has a score to settle, someone kidnapped the woman he wants to be his mate, Delilah and he wants answers as to the who and why, so he goes to the only source they currently have and treats them the same way they treated the woman he loves and it was shamefully and a way that nobody should ever be treated. As he gets the answers he wants, he thinks about Delilah and how her experience has changed her, how the light has gone from her eyes and she is just a muted version of her once bubbly self, however, when he returns home to find that she has gone and only left him a letter, he is enraged and worried that something else will happen to her.

Meanwhile, Delilah is making her way to find the person responsible for her kidnapping and degradation, however she wants to keep herself and her whereabouts from Christian so that she can do something by herself for once, but this plan backfires when despite her best efforts. He is going out of his mind with worry, so Christian has called in some help and found where Delilah is and just in the nick of time when someone else bursts in on the same scene to take the person she is meeting out and she has been caught in the crossfire, so just before her life ebbs away, permission is granted to turn her and allow her to become a vampire and not just be with one.

While the attack left Delilah in a precarious situation, the person they are all after manages to escape, so the hunt is on again, however, keeping Delilah safe and secure is harder than ever when she transitions and her new powers come to the fore and some shifters come after her and while a precarious deal is struck with the syndicate to take the bounty off of their heads in return for them being given the troublemaker once the Consulate have gleaned all the information they can out of them. The shifters are not the only ones after her though and new information comes to light which casts a shadow on everything Delilah knows and trusts involving a coven of witches, but will she be able to do what she needs to do and also be accepted by the rest of the Consulate, or will she have to leave everything she wants behind to protect the one she loves? Will Christian be able to help Delilah to overcome her trauma and teach her to accept her new life, or will one of the groups after them get to their target before they do? This is a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs with a romantic twist throughout, where secrets and lies abound to weave a twisted tapestry of truths which will hook you in from start to finish.

I loved the first book – and then I read this one and I think I may love it more!😭 From the beginning I was sucked in, even with the little bit of foreshadowing in the first book. I was so intrigued! The dark vampire aspect, forbidden love, revenge plot, steam, action. This book checks all of these boxes for me. And Christian & Delilahs chemistry is undeniable. This author knows how to write and she does it so well! Thank you Sylvia Black!!
