She was banished by her last Vampire family and wanted to ensure that she never put herself (or her daughter) in the same situation. As a mother I felt and understood all of Maud's apprehensions about falling in love again. I feel bad that some of my favorite reviewers disliked this book because I loved it. However, even though I desperately want to know what's happening at the Inn, I was able to submerge myself into Maud's story. Is me or do these take forever to come out? I must admit I was reluctant when I saw that this was about the sister, Maud, rather that Dina.
