Review from One Bite with a Vampire →
This was phenomenal, and I am thoroughly glad I stuck with the series. The story is a little light on plot, but builds firmly on the metaplot and outdoes itself with characterization. Again, the worldbuilding is solid here, and the reveals feel like payoffs this time instead of out-of-the-blue twists. The characters get a bit..
Review from The Fantastic Fluke →
A Joyfully Jay review. Story Rating: 3.75 ⭐️ Audio Rating: 4.5 ⭐️ In the 18 years since his mother’s murder, Sage McKinley has been trapped—trapped in an emotionally abusive and demeaning relationship with his father; trapped in a cycle of doing everything to please the man and still getting nothing but contempt; and trapped with..
Review from Bad Boy’s Bard →
I seriously loved Gareth and Niall’s story! Both are flawed individuals. Both kept truths from each other. The story kept me on the edge of my seat! Joel Leslie did such a fantastic job with the narrative. I loved his accents!
Review from The Necromancer’s Dance →
Ok, like so many I was a little put off with the Angelus Salvatore name. But regardless of the nod to Buffy and Vampire Diaries the author has a way with words. They are excellent at description and wording things so well. Then get to the story and world building and I’m blown away. I..
Review from Flash Rip →
Am I really being expected to believe that Liam has been surfing hookup apps for ten years and has never once come across a top? The bottom shaming he endures from every gay man he meets except Cody is unlikely, too. We all know there are physically powerful guys who like to bottom. Whether or..
Following Joel Leslie works, I found this sweet jewel that I loved very much. Both characters are conflicted with the feeling for each other, romantic Benjamin was thinking that his life was totally molded for the happy marriage with children,etc.. without thinking that passion and love are more than that. Phillips, very proud captain, was..
In terms of worldbuilding, the author did an amazing job creating an interesting lore and from that an overall plot that made sense to the world. The rules set forth are followed by the characters and the plot adheres to this internal consistency. In terms of the writing itself, there’s room for improvement. For example,..
Review from Cronin’s Key III →
The last of the trilogy so far I know I had a bittersweet emotion with this one because, I love this vampires they are so fun and crazy, I didn’t want for that to end. One thing that I love in this one is how well myth and history and fiction go so well together,..
There is a 1 star review here from the previous book that I feel is inaccurate. I’ve reviewed this title before. It is even more beautiful the second listen. The One Star is wrong. They conclude the substance abuse was tacked on to the tale, the sex trauma was unnecessary, and characters boring. I do..
My favorite series so far! And I can’t imagine a better narrator than leslie! He’s so enchanting
