Desciption
Abigail Winters leads a perfectly ordinary life until the night she’s transported to an alternate earth. Attacked by vampires, her life is saved by the gorgeous but dangerous vampire, Val. When Val is injured and needs her blood to heal, she repays her debt by allowing him to feed from her. But she is unprepared for the immediate desire she now feels for the sexy vampire.Despite saving her life, Val has no interest in feeding from the curvy human. It will be weeks before her need for him wears off, if she doesn’t go mad first, and he has no wish to have her pining after him and begging him to feed from her again or worse – have sex with her. Gravely injured and with no other choice, he feeds from Abigail and is intoxicated by the sweet taste of her blood. Determined to claim her, his obsession with her grows as she fights her undeniable attraction to him. When Abigail is taken from him, Val will do whatever it takes to find her. Author’s This is a novella of 27,000 words. It contains explicit and steamy sex scenes that may not be your cup of tea. PLEASE This novella ends in one hell of a cliff-hanger, and Abigail and Val's story continues in The Vampire's Love, Book Two.
Review
I'm glad I got this as a freebie. Cliffhanger notwithstanding, it wasn't a complete story. There was zero worldbuilding, poor character development for the main characters, and zero for the side characters. And it was filled with errors. This was more like a rough draft outlining the story.This would have been bad enough, but the hero, when he first meets the heroine, saves her life and then proceeds to fat-shame her in a really unkind manner. I get that he might have his own preferences for what he finds attractive, but there was no call for his comments. The heroine calls him out later for this behavior, but he never apologized or groveled, only said he finds her beautiful.I skimmed a good portion because this was the kind of book where you don't really need to be paying attention to know what's going on.Anyway, this gets two stars instead of one because I thought the idea was interesting, and I didn't utterly hate it. If it had been developed a LOT more, this could have been a decent book.
