In a world filled with soulless vampires, young men struggling with life and sexuality stumble into dangerous territory. Two stories set in the same world feature young men coming of age as they struggle with their sexuality and needs. Each faces challenges and dangers of the world they’ve discovered but with the help of older, more experienced vampires, these young men may find that their first love is an everlasting love. These two stories may just be the ultimate May to December romances.
The first story, Broken Vows, revolves around young Daniel and his first gay sexual encounter with the much older Gabrielle. Gabrielle saves Daniel from an evil vampire and in the process, shows him how wonderful love between two men can be. Gabrielle taps into the hidden desires Daniel has never admitted and when he forces Daniel to leave, the young man is heartbroken. The majority of the specialis pills wholesale ts have endorsed this drug and considered as the most accepted form of therapy. So to treat the issue, numerous named medication best price for tadalafil were discharged in the commercial center. The flexibility of this course is its generic tadalafil uk biggest asset. It on line cialis is a disorder in which ovulation does not occur regularly. Their emotional connection is instanteous and takes years before Gabrielle resurfaces in Daniel’s life. The May/December theme is strong with Gabrielle often hurting Daniel for his own good. The story is incredibly short and has been published before so there is nothing particularly new or interesting about the story, but it’s sweet.
The second story, Blood Hustler, is longer but has an almost identical theme. Young hustler Tad is from an abusive home and struggling to live as a hustler. When an evil vampire confronts Tad, centuries old James steps in and saves the young man. However James’ soft heart warms to Tad and can’t help but indulge in some sexual awakening of his own. Here the emotional connection is deeper between the men even as the melodramatic emotion and abuse is over the top. The sexual aspect of their relationship takes a backseat to the growing emotional connection and recovery from James’ longing and Tad’s past abuse. Of course James sends Tad away for his own good but their love wins in the end.
These two stories are decent with a sweet, emotional connection. The couples are almost identical with only a few differences and there is a marked lack of world building in both stories. Due to this, both stories are somewhat bland without offering anything new or interesting to the classic themes. However, romance fans and those who especially enjoy the young, innocent man with an experienced (much!) older gentleman may enjoy these offerings even if they are similar to other such stories. The sex scenes are muted so those looking for the scorching sex the author usually delivers be aware these are much more a sweet romance, for all the inherent blood and violence of vampires. This small collection is okay and of most interest to the author’s fans.
