Thorns and Fangs

A decadent, dangerous, and entirely intoxicating book. 

I have come to expect little from queer erotica- its generally full of cliches, cringe worthy metaphors, and sub-par writing- but this? This is gold. Not only is it exceedingly well written, its sexy as hell, and manages to pull off two improbable things at once- vampire smut that doesn't read like poor Twilight fan fiction, and humor between searing hot sex scenes that doesn't take away from them. I found myself hooked, laughing, and impatiently turning the next page for more. 

Beyond that, the story itself is wonderfully done. By the end of the first page I was already curious about the world and characters, both of which have a fantastic depth and weight. Each character feels fleshed out and unique- no cookie cutter characters here- and their dialogue felt less like words on a page and more like actual conversations. The sex scenes are nice and lengthy and they touch on plenty of fun things outside the normal realms of most queer erotica, which makes this even more enjoyable to read. 

Absolutely brilliant book that I will be recommending to anyone who will listen. I cannot wait for the next.

Wow! Amazing book! Great plot with twists and turns I didn't anticipate. Normally I'd skim through most of the sex scenes to move back to the plot but the scenes were super hot. Can't wait to read the rest of the series.

When I started this, I did not expect the journey I’d be in for. I loved every second of it! 

When you begin reading, you meet Nate. He’s an escort and living in a city full of all the creatures that go bump in the night. Hunter, hires Nate for his brother, Ben. It is everything that Nate is attracted to. He’s gorgeous, kind and he does his best to control every aspect of his vampiric nature because he doesn’t want to be the monster he thinks he is. 

The first few chapters are full of some amazing sex scenes. Like, *fans self* I didn’t think it was going open up like that but whoa. As an aspiring writer I would love to be able to write sex scenes like St. Kevern does. That sounds really creepy now that I’m reading this back but it’s true. It was full of lust, need, want, and overwhelming reaction/response from the characters. 

What I really loved was the entire storyline. It wasn’t just about sex. It was about Ben and Nate fighting through everything that life through at them. And a wild Necromancer who sets his sight on the Saltaire sire and his sons using Nate to get to them, well, that was a lot to handle. 

This story becomes a full on paranormal thriller and you can’t put the book down. It seems like in every chapter there’s a new twist and it keeps you on your toes. I loved the fact that all the twists happened. Nate, finds out more about himself as the story progresses and you’re just like, “GIVE ME ANSWERS NOW!”.  You know that feeling you really get into book and you have to know what happens? Yeah, this is what happened as I read Thorns and Fangs. 

I love that their story isn’t ending here. Ben and Nate are set to move back to Nate’s home with his brother. I’m already wishing I had that book in my hands. I want to see how Ben and Nate’s relationship progresses. I want to know more about Nate and his family!

This is a paranormal MM story.  It is a great story.  It is very detailed with twist and turns all over the place.  The main characters are well developed and a little mysterious as their characters and powers unfold as the book progresses.  The story moves at a great pace and keeps the reader very involved.  Wonderful book.
