This is one vampire story that is definitely not for the underage teenagers. This book have a lot of vampire sex in it. Lotsa and lotsa em, so if you’re a minor, please stay away from this book.

I picked up this book not expecting that there’s hot, rampant sex going on at some point in the book, but I was pleasantly surprised that there’s hanky panky going on in there.

Despite of the sex scenes, this book was wonderfully written and not trashy in any way. The storyline was amazing and I somehow enjoyed the politics of it.

Overall, a good, steamy read that will satiate any bloodthirsty or sex-thirsty readers for that matter.

I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. I received an ARC of this book from Harlequin publisher via Netgalley. I was not required to write a positive review for this book.

Book description:

Once upon a time…the Blood Sorcerer vanquished the kingdom of Elden. To save their children, the queen scattered them to safety and the king filled them with a need for vengeance. Only a magical timepiece connects the four royal heirs…and time is running out.

Nicolai the Vampire is renowned for his virility, but in a cruel twist of fate “The Dark Seducer” has become a sex slave in the kingdom of Delfina—stripped of his precious timepiece and his memory. All that remains is a primal need for freedom, revenge—and the only woman who can help him.

When the wanton vampire summons Jane Parker, she is helpless to obey. She’s drawn to his dark sexuality and into his magical realm. But for this human, all is not a fairy tale. For saving Nicolai could mean losing the only man she’s ever craved..
