In a word, steamy! If you are looking for an easy read that will lead you down the path of dark vampire romance. When Danielle is thwarted in her efforts to buy a high priced artifact for the museum she is the curator for, she has no idea how strange her life is about to get . Vulture is a member of the Order, an ancient group of Purebloods. He is contracted to get both the ancient artifact and Danielle for an unnamed client. He discovers Danielle is more than she seems, as are his feelings for her. The obstacles between the two seem to mount as their time together continues.

I loved this book so much! I have read other works by one of the authors that helped create this wonderful novel. It was so good, the story line really drew you in, and you had more than a connection with the characters or the events surrounding them…you felt like you were right there with them! The book and writing was well done, there were surprises as I read through, and those are always welcome for sure.
This one I felt was a different take on the supernatural world where creatures only defined as supernatural lived and made a life, keeping things in order as they felt they needed and should. Danielle is unknown to this well to her, a secret and hidden world when she is in a auction to her an she is then thrust into a world and new life, she never even thought would even be real, and she is ready with her strong will to take all of this that comes with her life head strong forward! She meets Vulture, Danielle has been assigned to be his mate. Though the lust that each had for one another was very much there, neither wanted to admit to it. I kind of expected that for the most part. Seriously though, the heat impact from the challenges they faced really wanted me to see them go at it and let their passion really dig deep, and I mean really deep! Danielle was assigned really to protecting a ancient artifact, and even in Vulture’s world she was doing so though. As things happened more and more …I found loose ends tired together and things came to light. Answers came to me, and I still wanted more. The novel was amazing from start to finish and truly gave me everything I would want and so much more as well!
The novel gave so much to the myself as the reader. I was given hot and steam moments, as well good dialogue that went along with the drama and obstacles that Vulture and Daniele had faced together. I loved how even when hope and odds are against you, sometimes when you are not even looking you can find the greatest thing to ever be felt in life. That book had a string sense of that lingering as I read though, and it was a nice touch with everything else that happened and that progressed, All in all, the book and characters were amazing. I was very entertained and I look forward to more from these authors!

This is the first book that I have read by either of the co-authors. The blurb caught my attention and definitely wanted to read it. It is a fast-paced story that pulls you in. While you dive into the story right away, but as you read you start to end the lure of this world. I do love the chemistry between Danielle and Vulture. I am seriously looking forward to seeing this world expand.

The steam coming from this book is sure to warm you up on a cold night. Danielle is ripped from everything and has to come to terms with so much. Vulture thought this contract would be like all the rest. There is definitely chemistry with these two. The story is fast paced and full of action.

Danielle doesn’t realize when she’s been out bidded on an artifact in an auction that it’s about to change her entire life. Code Name: Vulture starts out fast paced when Danielle doesn’t get the artifact she wanted so badly and has promised to an old friend she would protect but little does she know her fated mate is the one who outbid her and throws her into a new dangerous life. She must figure out how to keep her secret and protect the artifact. This was such a good read, I finished it in one setting! It’s a dark vampire romance with a strong female lead who doesn’t know her own strength. Danielle loves history and uncovering the truth! She soon finds out that not all stories are myths. Vulture is a Vampire but not a normal one, he’s a pure blood; He’s faster, stronger and has different powers. This series was so great from start to finish, it was exciting, sexy, and I loved the mystery you get with it! Would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a dark fantasy romance!

This book is absolutely fantastic! The paranormal world building was really well done, from beginning to end! As you read and learn more about Vulture and his world and Danielle and her being sucked right into all the chaos. And as things progress towards the end, questions are answered leaving you thrilled at the prospect of what is next to come in the series!
Danielle is independent, adventurous and brave and is so much more than she appears. Vulture is cold and immoveable yet these two get shoved into a situation much bigger than they realize at the start and it only gets better as you read! Loved this book and I am definitely looking forward to reading more about Falcon in the next one! Highly recommend this for a great Paranormal world and romance!

As soon as I saw that Sylvia Black was one of the Authors, I got so excited because I have already read a few of her books and I am hooked on her! This is my first for Maya Daniels, and now I am going to be hooked on her books and CAN’T WAIT! This book being the first of this series is already so wild! There is so much love, sexual feelings, combat, drama, and more!! Vulture is his code name of a group of certain Vampires. They have lived for centuries, and whenever he is on any contract, he never breaks his vows and goes by all his rules to the penny, BUT it changes when he meets Danielle, a curator for a museum in New York. She’s his new contract, but as you can tell, it’ll mean SO much more. You will need to pick up this book right away! I am so ready to read the second book!!!

Code Name: Vulture: Dark Vampire Romance (The Order of the Condor Series Book 1) by Maya Daniels & Sylvia Black is a great collaboration between two brilliant authors. The book was interesting from start to finish and you really get caught up in the story. Although this isn’t necessarily the smoothest of collaborations that I have read the writing style of the two authors still seemed to work together. And the kinks could quite well be due to this being the start of a new series. The story really comes together and was great to read. I really liked Vulture. I was hooked by him the instant I started reading. I did have a little bit of a harder time connecting to Danielle as an individual character but I loved the connection between the two of them. I think this is a good start to a new series and I am looking forward to trying the next.

I enjoyed this book. I’m a huge fan of Sylvia Black and was excited to read this book. Danielle is an art curator at a prestige’s museum in New York city, and is looking to get her hands on a priceless relic up for auction. This relic is of personal importance to her due to a dear older gentleman who has told her many stories about it. Vulture, a sexy breathtaking pureblood, is at the auction and outbids Danielle. She is livid that the gorgeous man has her relic and can’t get it out of her mind. A night out with her best friend results in her kidnapping and everything changes for her forever. She is wanted by the underworld for her abilities. Turmoil and murder attempts are plenty. If you love vampires, Lycians and other underworld characters then I recommend this book. This was a great read. Looking forward to book 2.

Fast paced, action packed, super steamy and so much more! This book is everything i love about Paranormal Romances. I could not put this book down from the moment I picked it up. Extremely well written, the details in this book are really on another level and draw your imagination into the story along with the characters. Maya Daniels and Sylvia Black have set up perfectly for the next book, (so many questions) and I cant wait to continue reading.

This book starts out like most romance novels with the boy meeting the girl but that is about all this has in common with traditional romance books. We are automatically thrust into the action and mystery as we follow Danielle in her quest to obtain the relic her mentor has imparted knowledge about. When a mysterious stranger steps in to claim the relic and sends Danielle down the rabbit hole. This leads her to being kidnapped as she is tied up in something she doesn’t fully understand. On one hand Danielle has a secret that she needs to keep but as she gets closer to vulture and his unique tastes little by little her guard slips away. As more of the story is revealed we discover things are not as they seem and the lies piling up around Danielle, vulture, and the contract are not what they seem. Can Vulture keep Danielle safe as he learns she truly is his fated mate? What does the secret Danielle is told to keep have to do with Vulture and the contract? Will their relationship lead to salvation or ruin? This is an edge of your seat read that hooks you right from the beginning and continues pulling you in all the way to the last page.

Oh my goodness this book is amazing!!! I have read Maya Daniels books so when I saw this one I had to read it. I am so glad I did. I couldn’t put it down. I absolutely loved it. The story line is easy to follow. The details are fantastic. The characters are perfect. I can’t wait to read the next book or better yet I can’t wait to read the series. I love paranormal romance, I love every type of romance so this book definitely delivered.

I feel like vampire romance has been done, and done and done so it’s not often I stumble on a plot that feels genuinely fresh to me. But this did! The auction at the beginning really pulled me in, and I enjoyed finding out about the relic, about the Purebloods. There was lots of action, both the gorey kind and the steamy kind. Wink wink. The romantic aspect of the book didn’t feel as genuine though, it was hard for me to keep up with Danielle’s constantly changing emotions. But still, it was a solid read!

This book drew me right in from the very first page. The authors paint such a vivid picture every step of the way that it felt as if I were a part of the world that they created. I lost an entire day without even realizing it because I kept wanting to read just one more page to find out what would happen next. I honestly cannot remember the last time that I was so engrossed in a book that I finished it all in one day. As a mom of five children, sleep is usually priceless, but this time I did not regret getting less sleep one bit! This is not your typical vampire fluff novel, there’s romance, action, mystery and a twist that was a pleasant surprise. The heroine Danielle is not as soft and meek as she might appear at first glance, nor is Vulture all that he appears to be on the surface. If you’re a fan of supernatural and vampire romances this is a must read. I really enjoyed how multi-dimensional each of the characters were and the set up for the next book in the series was integrated seamlessly. I am anxiously awaiting the next book in this series, and I am off to discover more books by this amazing author.

“Easy, little bird. You’ll wear yourself out before it’s time to play.”
Vulture is one of the Order of the Condor, a vampire and specially bred killer whose latest contract becomes a little more complicated than he first imagined. An ancient relic, a multimillion dollar bid, a sassy museum curator, fated mates, hidden agendas, prophecy, vampires, magic, danger, and sizzling chemistry brew into quite an intense situation. There is definitely more to the situation than he expected. He is the predator and Danielle just became his prey. Outbidding her at the auction was just the first step in his plan- abducting her his second step- now, if he can only get her to cooperate and divulge everything she knows about the relic. Danielle was outbid at the auction, then abducted and thrown in a cage- held captive by the monster for hire. Her world changes in an instant when she realises that all the tales she’s heard aren’t fantasy, they are in fact real- monsters and the supernatural really do exist…… and the fate of the vampire world is at stake. Code Name: Vulture is the first book in The Order of the Condor Series by Maya Daniels & Sylvia Black. It is a dark paranormal romance with vampires, the supernatural, suspense, action, violence, drama, chemistry, sizzle, danger, magic, bondage, dominance, abduction, captivity, agendas, and mystery. There were some intense scenes that had me holding my breath, as well as some darkish themes. This is a fairly fast-paced story full of descriptive details- but, I felt like the story suffered a little, at times, due to the hectic pace. I also had a few issues where the wrong word/s were used, for example; esthetic instead of ecstatic- two similar words but with very different meanings…. they pulled me out of the story and had me rereading parts to try to make sense of what I had read. Code Name: Falcon (Book #2) continues the story of the Order of the Condor- with Falcon and Cara’s story…

Code Name: Vulture, as advertised, is a dark vampire romance, but what wasn’t advertised was how it’s also an introduction to a different kind of vampire story. More than just a simple by-the-book romance, there’s a complexity to the relationship between Vulture and Danielle. What starts out as a physical attraction goes beyond the skin and with steamy scenes the deeper into the story we go. The authors deliver on a shiver-inducing tale about love, survival, and magic where nothing is as it seems. If you like a story with a little spice and darkness, you’ll love this book. I’ll be keeping an eye out for book two!

Code Name: Vulture is a Dark Vampire Romance by Maya Daniels & Sylvia Black. This is my first book by Maya and Sylvia but I really enjoyed it.
Danielle is a curator of a museum looking forward to getting her hands on an ancient artifact. But little does she know, she’s not the only one who wants this artifact. Vulture is a purebred vampire. He has a job to do, and that job is Danielle. He takes a contract to take her, but boy oh boy, he didn’t expect her to be so head strong.
I would personally recommend you check trigger warnings before picking this one up. But if you enjoy Dark Vampire Romances – you’re gonna want to give this one a shot!

I enjoyed this paranormal story. This is not my first book by these authors but it is one of my favorites yet. This is a well written story about protection and the cost you are willing to pay for that. The author’s use of details made the story come to life on each page. Their creative, unique characters add to the story as being relatable and strong. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the beginning. This is a story about Vulture and Danielle. He is a born leader and also a ghost just like his brothers. She never expected to end up in a nightmare and willing to give up anything to these vampires. Problem, she has secrets that they must never find out about. As both of their lives intertwine they find themselves barely hanging on to survival. What happens next I highly recommend picking up this book. It is for sure worth the pick up. I enjoyed their chemistry and growth throughout the story. They made such great characters and I enjoyed what they brought to the story. I really enjoyed this paranormal story with hot, steamy characters. I highly recommend this book.

Code Name: Vulture is the first book in a new series about a woman, Danielle, who is a curator of a museum. The story starts at an auction where she is “guaranteed” to obtain an ancient artifact that holds many secrets. What she doesn’t realize is she is not the only one after this particular artifact. After being outbid, she obsesses about losing the artifact to some stranger. What she doesn’t know is that he will not be a stranger for long, but her mate. I really enjoyed this first book. As someone who loves dark vampire romances, it did not disappoint. While I did think that it started a little slow and confusing, I was able to catch up pretty quickly. Once I was a couple chapters in, I was hooked. Now, there are a lot of these types of novels, so I am always looking for a different point of view. I think the author did really well with bringing a new aspect to the stories we have heard in so many different ways. I look forward to the rest of the series.

Code Name: Vulture is a dark Vampire Romance story and the first book in The Order of the Condor Series by Maya Daniels & Sylvia Black. It is fast paced, with lots of action and danger and is steamy, addictive, and sexy, and full of danger. I was lost in the story and the harsh but oddly alluring world that Maya and Sylvia have created. A place where secret and lies, darkness and death thrive to weave a twisted world. One of domination, lust, greed, and brutality. When extinction threatens the vampiric race rumours abound of a relic that could just as well annihilate them or be their saviour. Unfortunately, there is only one person that knows of the relic and its secrets. Now she is on their radar she finds herself in a fight for her life. I devoured this short story in one sitting. I can’t wait to see what else they bring.

Codename: Vulture is NOT a story about falling in love. If that is your goal, I would recommend skipping it. However, if you want a steamy story full of action, adventure, and interesting lore, then this is the book for you! It has a great, original take on vampires with enough mystery to spark your curiosity. Oh and the main lead is pretty kickass. All in all it was a pretty good read!

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 😉)

First you have a brave Heroin with attitude to boot! Lucianna jumps in feet first to try and find the missing women and finds herself attached to a Vampire Overlord in the process. Salvatore has his work cut out for him with Lucianna and the desire to protect and save her, if even from herself. He is used to his word being obeyed without hesitation, until her. There definitely is a plot twist that I didn’t see coming and hopefully it surprises you as well. I have read many Vampire Novels and Sylvia has made the Masters of the Consulate a series I do not want to miss a single Novel from! Thank you, Sylvia, for the good read and keep this series going! Can’t wait to read what comes next.

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.

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.

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!!

Master Tuscano: Dark Vampire Romance (Masters of the Consulate #2) by Sylvia Black
This is the second book I’ve read by Black. This is also the second book in the Master of the Consulate Series. It does need to be read in order, although it’s about a different master.
Christian is one of the Masters and he is getting his revenge for his mate. When she needs to be turned because she is injured he does it. They go through more than enough challenges. The quote I chose for Christian is: “Very well, but the next time you feel that need is so great, you are going to harness it, and I am going to teach you how to do exactly that.”
Delilah wasn’t exactly ready to become a vampire. Or so she thought. Once it happens she finds that people who took her in may be the reason she got kidnapped. The quote I chose for Delilah is: “Traitor shifters! The vampires have never done anything but respect your place in the universe, and for this, you repay us this way?”
