The Immortal Kindred Series #1
Deepest Midnight
True love never dies.
At least, it doesn’t for Millicent, a once French noblewoman turned immortal vampire. The love of her life is murdered before she became immortal. Forever is a long time to live in despair. Two hundred forty years later, she locks eyes with an English actor, who happens to look exactly like her dead lover.
Sadness turns to happiness as Millicent and Jack find passion in each other’s arms. Their fling quickly turns serious as Millicent finds happiness once again—and possibly her one true love.
However, their relationship becomes complicated by her own uncertainty, Jack’s mortality, and the other man in Millicent’s life, Alexandre, her maker and companion. When Alexandre puts his foot down, Millicent must decide if she’s going to continue to be led by others or take the reins and drive the outcome of her life.
Deepest Midnight is set in modern day Savannah, Ga with occasional glimpses back to 18th century France. This is the first book in The Immortal Kindred Series.

This is a creative, easy flowing and the twists and turns I didn’t see coming left me on the edge of my seat story. This is about Millicent who gets turned by a mysterious man, Alexandre. But then she meets Jack, is it possible that he is her true love? They will leave you questioning reincarnation, will they make you believe? I enjoyed the characters as they brought the story to life for me. I can’t wait to see more from them in the future. I highly recommend this book.

This book was well-written with sprawling scenery that really felt like you were taking each step with the main character, Millicent. It was easy to navigate her mind and get a feel for what she is thinking but maybe note ven saying yet. I loved the chapter cliffhangers that got you to the end but made you want to keep on reading just a bit more. The entire book from cover design to pages wafted of a longing and mystical tale.

4.5 stars for this complex and dramatic preternatural romance
Not your usual spin on a vampire story, this romance goes beyond death in another form — reincarnation. Millicent is a vampire, turned by the doting and mysterious Alexandre just as her human life fell apart spectacularly when, within the 18th century French aristocracy, her husband uncovered her torrid affair with a lowly painter, Julien, the true love of her life. Unsurprisingly, this leads to Julien’s untimely death.
Centuries later, when Millicent spies Jack, an exact physical match for her Julien, it stops more than two hundred years of mourning him and she begins to hope that he may be her Julien in more than just appearance. Though whether he is or isn’t, Millicent soon falls fast.
This doesn’t go over well with Alexandre, who hints that there is so much about their kind that he hasn’t divulged. On top of his edict that she end things with this human, other events unfold that challenge Millicent and Jack’s relationship.
This story is dramatic to say the least, and completely enjoyable. I loved the elements of Millicent and Julien’s backstories that were carefully interwoven to reveal things as they were relevant, rather than dumping all the information at once early on.
The ending was well done, but still leaves plenty of intrigue for what comes next. How is Jack really feeling about his potentially being Millicent’s reincarnated lover? What are Alexandre’s origins that caused him to be so mysterious? What will happen to Millicent and the gang next?
With plenty of steam, and some surprising turns of events, I’m looking forward to learning more about all the characters in the next installment.

Deepest Midnight is the first book in The Immortal Kindred Series by Clara Winter. This was my first read by Ms. Winter, but I am a real sucker for a good vampire story, so she had me right from the beginning. The story is a paranormal romance, with vampires, supernatural themes, suspense, action, drama, and a touch of mystery. Ms. Winter spins a captivating tale, with an original twist to the vampire theme.
Millicent has been brooding and glum for over two hundred years mourning the loss of her soulmate, even though it happened so long ago, the pain is still fresh and the loss weighs heavily on her heart- it’s like she’d lost a part of herself. So, imagine her shock when she stops to watch a as a movie is being filmed nearby, and looks into the face from her past. The actor is the spitting image of her long lost lover. Is her grief-stricken mind playing tricks on her? Is this a freaky coincidence, or could he really be the same man? Join Millicent, Alexandre, Annie, and Jack to find out all the captivating details for yourself.
This was a great story, with wonderful paranormal elements crafted in such a way that they were entirely believable. The whole story ‘came alive’ before my eyes, and that comes down to the authors talent for spinning a great story. I am really looking forward to the next book, “Rebel Heart’.
Thank you, Ms. Winter!

I love the concept behind this story—soulmates reunited after centuries apart—but can they overcome in this life larger hurdles than they overcame in the last? Then, to complicate matters, throw in an overprotective guardian, some Hollywood glitz and an unsolved murder and you have one wild and crazy ride.
Clara has a gift for dropping you into the middle of a moment and painting the scene around you—you genuinely feel that you are taking this journey by the heroine's (Millicent) side—and despite her immortal status, she retains all the human qualities that make her so lovable and relatable.
I can't wait for the next installment in this series!

5 out of 5 stars
The story Deepest Midnight: Book One of the Immortal Kindred Series by Clara Winter is a paranormal romance book. It is a story that hooked me in from the very beginning and didn’t let go until I had read the final page. I loved the attention to detail that the story has and it felt like I was right there with the characters experiencing what they did. I loved reading about the character of Millicent. She is an immortal/vampire who still feels grief because of the past. She finds herself caught unaware when she finds herself looking into the eyes of a man who looks just like her long dead love. She meets him and finds out the man’s name is Jack. I could feel the desire and attraction between them. While they label what they are doing as having fun, it is not long before Millicent feels strong emotions for Jack. One of the issues she must face is Alexandre, Millicent’s maker and companion who is firmly against the relationship. What will Millicent do? Will she give in to Alexandre as he is the one that has protected and saved her in the past or will she go forward on a path of her own choosing, one that could lead her to happiness again? Read this book to find out. This is a story that had me turning pages to find out what was going to happen next. Millicent is a character that I grew to love with each chapter that I read and found myself wanting her to be happy. I found that the story flowed smoothly and enjoyed the transitioning from the modern day setting to the 18th century. My emotions went up and down with the characters throughout the entire book. Don’t miss out on a wonderful romance story that includes immortals/vampires and kept me mesmerized until the end. It is a book I would highly recommend reading. It is the first story in a series and I look forward to reading the next one.

Deepest Midnight (The Immortal Kindred Series #1) by Clara Winter was an engaging read that had me hooked from start to finish.
My first read by this author and I'm impressed. It's been awhile since I've read a good paranormal romance, especially one involving vampires, and I will tell you I had this book read in one sitting. This book had a mix of everything, it played with the normal tropes and clichés, but didn't overload, and gave more substance to the vampire lore. This book had this dark tone throughout. Even when there was cause to be happy, that lurking darkness was still there, letting us know this book is anything but.
There is one thing I want to touch on and highlight, that really pulled me into this book, and that was the flashbacks to Millicent past. They were giving little by little at first, just a sneak peek here and there into her oastself, and into a time long gone. It gave us just enough that when she reveal her whole story, you were engrossed, captivated and didn't want it to end. In truth, if the author wanted, could make a prequel going more in depth with what transpire not only between Millicent and Julien, but what transpired after her change.
Overall this book is a solid read, and it's a solid start to what will probably become my most anticipated series of this year. So please take my super high recommendation and my golden stamp of approval, that this book will put you in a trance and you will not be able to stop reading until you get to that bittersweet ending.
Happy Reading

Five Stars
Vampires are my go to books. I love most reads that feature blood sucking lol. I was so excited to dive into this story. Normally it’s a guy that’s the vampire and the female is just a mortal. In this story our girl has the fangs and it’s depressing. But it gets better she just has to find her happy place. The author made some surprising twist that made the story stand out more. It wasn’t a typical vampire story. Mills has a very depressing personality and it doesn’t make her likable but you do understand her. I don’t like my characters to be down 24/7. As the story goes on the author puts some twist in that just have you wanting to scream. I love books that are unpredictable. The author definitely delivered.

This is book one in the Immortal Kindred series. As far as vampire stories go, this one is interesting because the author throws in the idea of reincarnation as well. Millicent was alive in the 1700’s and was a French noblewoman. She fell in love with a man who wasn’t her husband. Soon after she became a vampire and for over two hundred years mourns the loss of her true love. By chance, she meets a man who is the spitting image of her lost love. Does reincarnation exist? Can this actually be him?
The story switches back and forth between the 18th century and present day so we fully understand Millicent’s life. The author did a good job because you never get lost within the story. Milli’s knowledge of vampire history is limited to only what her maker told her, which isn’t much. She has only lived with her maker and another vampire, rarely meeting any other immortal. Guaranteed this will lead to some interesting situations later in the series.
This is the first book that I have read from this author. I found the story to be easy flowing and interesting. There was romance, drama and mystery rolled all together which made an intriguing story. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next.

I really enjoyed how the book utterly captivated me from the word go. I became so immersed in the story and the characters. I couldn’t decide how I thought it all might end which I found really exciting. I wanted things to work out well for Millicent and I was behind her the whole way.
This was such a strong and brilliant start to a new series. I cannot wait to read more.

Deepest Midnight: Book One of the Immortal Kindred Series by Clara Winter is a paranormal romance and supernatural themes. This captivating tale revolves around vampires, which is full of suspense and drama, mystery and action, love and pain. Clara has written a story that pulls at you and keeps you enthralled all the way through and definitely leaving the best of the story until the very end. Clara’s attention to the detail of the characters and the world in which she created is rich and vivid and brings the story to life. The story transitions nicely from the 18th Century to modern day.
Millicent has been in mourning, for over two hundred years. Losing your soulmate never gets easier no matter how many years have passed. Imagine her shock when she comes upon a face, a face of someone from her past. Could it be him, her long lost love? And what will her maker, make of her new find?
I am really looking forward to reading the next book in the series, Rebel Heart. If you like a good vampire book then have a read of this one.

Deepest Midnight was a brilliant read; I was hooked from beginning to end. The author‘s writing was excellent, the story flowed well, it was easy to read and very engaging. The author’s attention to detail was great which made it even better to read. The characters were well thought out and developed well over the story. Vampire stories are amongst my favourite paranormal romance reads but I do find sometimes they are much the same so I liked that this one was a little different, I could tell the author had really thought about what she was writing about and which direction she wanted her characters to go in. There was a dark undertone to the story too which I particularly liked. I enjoyed the little snippets into Millicent’s past and finding out more about her.
Overall I thought that this was a fantastic paranormal romance read with some great twists and turns which left me guessing what was going to happen! I am really looking forward to reading book 2 in the series and I highly recommend this one!

I love finding new authors as well as new series. I also love books with Vampires. This book was just my cup of tea! The author had a very unique take on vampires and I found her characters to be quite refreshing.
I found that I was really routing for Millicent. I like how the author was able to intorduce parts of her past to enrich the book and help to get to know her character better. I also enjoyed how the author was able to bring the drama into the book. I quite enjoyed how the author was able to draw out the intrigue and the murderer wasn't really obvious at first. I really enjoyed this book from page one and cannot wait to read more from this author and this series.

a great read about hope. Living forever can be miserable if you have lost the one you love. Millicent still mourns her lover even though he died more than two centuries ago. But when she meets an actor who looks exactly like him, her hope is reignited. Desperate to find out if he is Julien, she seeks him out and accidently develops feelings for him. If he is Julien, can Millicent hope for a better future or will the past repeat itself?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn't put down. Well developed characters like Millicent struggling with her feelings but still going for what she wants or the supportive and friendly Annie. The contrast between bright happy Alexander and moody Millicent was beautifully written and enjoyable.
I loved the visual detail throughout the novel in the sense of history with alleyways covered in moss and cobblestones and the fountain giving the place a sense of character. Or the vivid sense of colour in the past with vibrant blues and pinks and green parks or gold birds eye catching and bright making you feel as if you were actually there.
I loved the mix of genres with realism of actors and police officers and the fantasy of immortals that combined together for a captivating read. I also loved the original fairy tale feel of the meetings with Jupiter in the little cottage in the woods with a wise helpful figure was beautifully written. The flashbacks into the memories of the past were well written nd didn't distract from the narrative of the present. The use of italics and dates in these sections was a great addition and made it easy to follow for the reader. Overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.

This debut vampire romance is a great read! The story floated between the past and the present in a way that kept me completely intrigued, and I couldn’t wait to see how the book ended. I liked all the characters and their bond with each other. I’m eager to read the next book in the series!!

This is not your run of the mill vampire love story. The author does a beautiful job weaving her tale through flashbacks, plot twists, and intriguing characters. I found myself entranced by the story and read it in one sitting. I am so thankful that this is book one in a series; I am anxiously awaiting the opportunity to read book two!

Millicent carries a torch for someone she lost over two hundred years ago. She not the easiest person to live with, often melancholy.
Meeting someone who could be her lost love, rips into emotions, that she hasn’t felt in decades. A dash of history and some hot guys, make this novelette interesting. Millicent, will do whatever it takes rediscover love and keep it. Discovering a long standing betrayal and manipulation, she will no longer let anyone get in her way.

Rated 4 stars
This is a story of vampires or immortals. I was glad to pick this up because it’s been a bit since I was able to indulge myself. I was a bit shocked over this story. It was not what I expected it to be. It starts off at a nice pace as we are Introduced to the characters. We meet a few humans and then everything goes haywire. Half way through there is A lot of memory sharing and inner thinking. I got a bit bored at that point. Millicent is Way overthinking the situation (I know she is a different vampire but still) It picks back up near the end for a smashing conclusion.
Vampires are my second fav paranormal story. So I have read a lot. I felt this had a some holes in it. With them being together for 240 years I would think they would know a lot more about vampires than what was led to believe. I enjoyed the story of how Alexandre enticed Millicent to him. The relationship with the human and between the 3 vampires were lovely adds to the story. Overall this is a short look into the current life of a few vamps with some flashbacks to help explain a few things. I enjoyed the explanation of the title. Very interesting and perfect! I liked this...yes i had a few issues but it is a good story and held my interest. I read it fairly quickly and the story did move along nicely. This is my first time reading this author. I am giving her second book in the series a read.

This is a story of vampires or immortals. I was glad to pick this up because it’s been a bit since I was able to indulge myself. I was a bit shocked over this story. It was not what I expected it to be. It starts off at a nice pace as we are Introduced to the characters. We meet a few humans and then everything goes haywire. Half way through there is A lot of memory sharing and inner thinking. I got a bit bored at that point.

Deepest Midnight by Clara Winter is the first book in the first book in the Immortal Kindred series. The story is set in modern day Savannah, Georgia with some flashbacks to the 18th century French court. Millicent is an immortal vampire who meets an actor who looks like her long lost love of ages ago. I really like Millicent and the other characters. I was drawn in by the story and loved the flashbacks to her mortal life. The secondary characters were great. I really look forward to reading more from this series.

For some reason, I was initially hesitant about reading this story - I'm sure it was the space I was in at that moment. What was I hesitant for? This story is fantastic.
I was immediately invested in the characters. The story moves quickly and doesn't use a ton of unnecessary descriptions. It is clearly well plotted from beginning to end. I read it in one sitting and read every word. There was no need to skim at any point.
There is a lot right with this book and nothing wrong with it.
This is a book I would recommend to my younger cousins and look forward to reading the next book in the series.

I give Deepest Midnight: Book One of the Immortal Kindred Series by Clara Winter, 4 stars.
Millicent is a vampire that has been around for over two centuries. And she has been grieving the whole time. In fact, she has not been happy since she was mortal and was truly in love. But that ended up being short lived. Now she has met man who reminds her so much of him. But is it this man the one she loves or just the memory of her lost love? Plus he is human. If she wants a long relationship, she must tell him. Will it ever work?
This a paranormal romance with some suspense thrown in. There are flashbacks to tell you more of Millicent's mortal life plus much going on in modern day. There at the relationships with her immortal family, as well as interacting with humans. She struggles daily. This book was okay to start with, but it gets quite good with the twists and turns you won't see coming. Plus an angle that I won't give away that I have not seen in vampire stories before.
I was intrigued with this book and I highly recommend it to those who love vampires and interesting stories.

Deepest Midnight: Book One of the Immortal Kindred Series by Clara Winter is paranormal romance that quickly became an addictive read. Set in Savannah, Georgia, this story has all the historical feel of that location in the character interactions. Add in attractive vampires, this story took on a twist that gives the story charm, allure and intrigue. Millicent is the heroine, who is fractured/flawed, from her past. Her character was strong, yet vulnerable. When she believes fate has changed her path, she cannot avoid not pursing that. However, not everyone is willing to let things fall as they will and that brings in the drama of the story. It was detailed, well written and an addictive pleasure to read.

The story is awesome being that it’s about vampires. I loved the fact that reincarnation and/or doppelgangers are in this story. I really like anything paranormal. This book was a slow read for me. Not because of the content but because of the small print in the paperback. That set me back a little bit with the speed of reading this story but it didn’t hinder me on liking the story. I did however predict a few things that happened in the book, that I definitely don’t want to give away. Alexandre! Millicent and Jack are perfect for each other. Their relationship, meant to be only fun, turns into way more real quick. There attraction undeniable. Alexandre was Millicent and Annie’s maker. I found myself in awe of him in the beginning but hated him towards the end. I really enjoyed the 18 century flashbacks. I would have loved to live in that era, wait maybe I did. Fun story and I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

Great start to this series! A very original vampire romance. I really appreciated all the peeks into the vamps’ histories and Millicent’s human life. It gave a good foundation and explained how and why she became a vampire in the first place. The story was fun and held several strains of mystery within as well as some exciting action scenes. I feel like it sets the series on a good course and I can’t wait to read Annie’s story.
