I will be honest, I don't usually read other reviews before I write mine. But I did here. I wanted to see if anyone else was struggling with what I did. But it appears that what I struggled with, every one else loved and had expected it of this author, who I have not read before.
Let me try to explain.
I could not see where this was going, at all. And that is a good thing. I do like being kept on my toes.
BUT I'm still not sure what actually happened when it all went down! I'm confused by it all, I have no clue what it was about, apart from a witch moving from body to body? Maybe? I'm not entirely sure what Joanna was, either. A vampire maybe? I dunno.
I actually liked that only Alex had a say, I think putting Jago into the mix would have confused me even more. Especially when it becomes (somewhat) clear that Jago is not just Jago, you know??
So, I think, I just didn't get it! But I did finish it, so . .

Felix signs up to be a donor for a year to enable him to save his sister, Astrea. Severin is his latest vampire. But Felix is changing the taste of his blood, to make it sweeter for the vampires. Severin, however, tastes something completely unexpected: his mate. But keeping his mate safe is becoming harder, as the coven who has Astrea is doing things totally against the rules.
I liked this, I liked it a lot. I've not read anything by this author before an I enjoyed the way the tale was spun.
Both Felix and Severin have a say, in the first person, so I liked that.
It's got some steam, and some danger. Some drama and some emotions. Not a lot of anything, but enough to make the book interesting.
I also liked that, besides Felix and Severin, we get two other romances! I'm not sayng who for spoilers, but I liked that we watch them fall along with these two.
I liked the two epilogues as well!
All in all, a good read, that made a wet Wednesday more enjoyable!
4 very good stars

This is the first I've read of Mr Takely and I do think I might read some more. I liked this, a lot.
Written from both Josh (not Joshua!) and Daniel's point of view, it tells of falling in love with quite possibly the most forbidden person: the son of your best friend. Cos that's basically what happens. Josh meets Daniel, they have amazing chemistry. Then Josh finds out Daniel is best friends with his sperm donor, the man who wants nothing to do with Josh.
There was not too much emphasis on the age gap, 20 years. I liked that. Too often it is the whole focus of a book, but not here. I liked that Daniel falls hard and fast, regardless who Josh is.
I hated Josh's sperm donor, and what he does here. He does redeem himself, but only after being put in his place by Daniel and by his wife. Who was wonderful to Josh once she knows who he is!
I do like how it all played out though!
4 very good, but, far too short, stars
