Publisher's Summary

Some rules are destined to be broken.

Loneliness. A concept with which Raphael Laurent is very familiar. He's lived a solitary life for 36 years, shunning the excesses of the local vampire clan - until he spots Lord Aleric Vane, the handsome and dissolute third son of a duke. For three years Raphael has watched from a distance, for only when he is near Aleric does the hollow, empty ache in his chest ease.

Cut off from his family for refusing to follow his father's dictates, Aleric's nights are filled with vice. But after three years in London, the city has lost all appeal. Desolate and penniless, his future appears bleak. Until a mysterious man drops from the shadows to drive off a trio of murderous thieves.

When Aleric awakens, he finds himself forever changed. The itch for more that drove him to London is gone. In its place is the feeling that he's known the beautiful Raphael all his life.

But to save Aleric, Raphael had to break the rules, giving him a chance to love the one man he never thought he could have - a chance that could be ripped away by Aleric himself.

Hot

Another smoking hot book from Ava March. Read it in one sitting. Narration was perfect too. I'd love to read a book about Grant and his partner.

Left me wanting more!

(3.5 stars) It’s November 1817 in London, and Raphael Laurent has lived alone for 36 years as a vampire since he was turned. Over the last 3 years he’s become obsessed with the similarly lonely Lord Aleric Vane, who is estranged from his family for disobeying his father’s wishes. When a deadly robbery endangers Aleric, Raphael saves him from death by turning him but there are other dangers the two must navigate. I’m enjoying Ava March’s historical romances and the supernatural twist was a nice touch. The story contains Ava’s trademark steam and I thought the opening obsessive scene where we watch Raphael spy on Aleric was well-written, but I felt this novella needed just a little more story, maybe another twist and turn or more relationship interaction between Raphael and Aleric. The whole story really takes place over about 24-36 hours and it’s pretty straightforward - it felt like a few chapters of a larger book and I wanted to know more. Audio narrator Alex Moorecock gave a good performance.
