Being a new member of the undead sect has its ups and downs, something that newly embraced Akio Lee is finding out first hand. Being able to spend eternity with his beloved Vincente, the man who introduced him to life in the nightside, is a definite up. Having to feed on strangers? That’s one of the downsides, and something that Akio is finding difficult to swallow. But what other option is there for a recently wed vampire couple who need blood to survive?

Finding a new donor perhaps? One who comes into the lifestyle willingly, as Akio had done, and is open to the unique and sensual relationship that develops when three men have a blood bond. A man who can exist in both the nightside and the dayside worlds. A man like Ian O’Keeffe, the handsome caretaker of the manse Akio and Vincente now call home? Ian seems to tick every box Akio and Vincente have—he’s comfortable around vampires, he’s obviously into men, he’s drop-dead gorgeous, he’s more than a little mischievous, and he’s human. Mostly.

But will the outgoing handyman be willing to offer two vampires his vein, his body, and his heart?

Oh how I have missed my Erie gang!!!! Nightside pics up after the last book in the Erie Shifters series, An Erie Garden Party where Akio was changed, or “embraced”, into a vampire himself. Sidenote: I like how VL puts a little bit of a different spin on the world of vampires, they are embraced, not changed, there is no licking the wounds closed, and the explanation of why they sleep on the dirt.

Akio and Vincente have decided that the time has come to move out of Lupei Manor and into a manse of their own. After finding the perfect home they got an extra added bonus of of a hot and sexy caretaker, Ian. Oh how I loved the chemistry of these three. And good Lord I thought just Akio and Vincente were hot...whew!!

There is a bit of a mystery about and as always a lot of humor. As with some of her previous books a lessons of love and acceptance as well.

Do I think you need to read the entire series to just read this book ...eh you maybe a little lost with some of the characters, but you might be fine. However i can not stress enough how much you SHOULD read this series because it's just fun and fabulous!!! I mean how could you NOT want to read about a skunk shifter???

I give this book 4 stars.

V.L. Locey loves worn jeans, yoga, belly laughs, Dr. Who, Torchwood, walking, reading and writing lusty tales, Greek mythology, the New York Rangers, comic books, and coffee. (Not necessarily in that order.) She shares her life with her husband, her daughter, one dog, two cats, two Jersey steers and a flock of assorted domestic fowl.

When not writing lusty tales, she can be found enjoying her day with her menagerie in the rolling hills of Pennsylvania with a cup of fresh java in hand.
