About this listen

Desperate times call for desperate measures . . .

Saddled with insurmountable debt, Tessa is desperate for a way out. When she's referred to an agency that pairs vampires with blood donors as a quick way to make some cash, she has no choice but to accept an arrangement. She expects pain. She expects fear. She expects a predator. But what she gets is something entirely different. Her vampire match is . . . sweet. Kind. Protective. And the way he makes her feel is anything but painful.

Can the ends justify the means?

Amos has long since given up on the idea of ever finding a blood mate. Accepting that the only live blood he'll ever enjoy will be from paid donors, he finally gives in and enlists a blood-matching service. But when he finally meets his match, she's everything he could have asked for in a mate—kind, funny, beautiful. He knows right away that he wants her for keeps, but it's a huge leap from temporary donor to eternal blood mate. If Amos is going to keep Tessa forever, he'll have to win her heart first.

Contains mature themes.

After reading the first book of the series, I assumed that in this world vampires were always the villains and werewolves the heroes. But in this book it's flipped around, with a vampire being the love interest and werewolves showing up briefly as antagonists. From a world building perspective I found it interesting to see how the two cultures clashed and neither group being all good or all bad.

From a romance perspective, I loved the sweet-but-deadly MMC and how gone he was over the FMC. There's a lot more steam in this book and it's less of a slow burn. The steamy scenes often include themes of CNC, which I personally enjoyed but might not be everyone's cup of tea. It's all 100% enthusiastically consensual and they discuss boundaries and safe words beforehand.

Really enjoyed both the story and the narration. Will be reading the next book in the series.

Sweet and sexy vampire love story
