Bestowed with eternal life by the Ancient Vasilios, Alasdair Kyriakous is one of the most feared and ruthless vampires in existence. His name carries weight across all of the seven continents. 

But he is a mystery to his kind, an anomaly among the self-indulgent. While he enjoys the pleasures of the flesh, he is exceptionally particular in his choice of partners and prides himself on his ironclad self-control.

Yet with one look his control will become a thing of the past, and Alasdair will discover that eternal life doesn’t always last forever…

A DEADLY ATTRACTION

Thrust into a world he could never have imagined, Leo Chapel awakens in his worst nightmare. Taken hostage by the dangerously mesmerizing vampire, Alasdair, Leo must rely on his intelligence to escape before he reveals a secret he isn’t even aware he’s hiding.

A FORBIDDEN DESIRE

Unaware that they’ve been brought together by an outside force and are little more than pawns to a higher power, Alasdair and Leo spend time trying to uncover the other’s secrets, the attraction between them growing stronger all the while.  

But enemies are watching and preparing to act against them.  When decisions that will alter lives and destinies have to be made—can a dead, grey heart learn to beat again?

My Review

Alasdair_alleskelle_cast1

Every now and then I like to indulge in the M/M genre and Ella Frank is an author my friends keep recommending if I want some male on male action. So when I heard she was coming up with a PNR one, I jumped on the occasion.

I mean, vampires are hot, right? But 2 males vampires together? One innocent historian nerd? Could I really say no to that?

Alasdair was such a nice surprise, I’m glad my perverted and adventurous side pushed me to read it, it was everything it promised to be. Captivating and alluring, I read Alasdair in one sitting, if you don’t count the moment I had to leave the family room to continue reading in another room, this book was so deliciously filthy I felt dirty reading in the same room as my kid.

Everything in Alasdair is meant to entice and arouse. From the way Ella Frank chose to narrate the story, you can’t just read this as an outsider. I could feel the characters desire, tension and frustration and enjoyed every little morsel the author was throwing my way.

I’m not going to say much about the story here, as I think it would be best enjoyed if you can go into it as blind as you can. What I can tell you is that Alasdair was a mysterious and suspenseful story, mixing efficiently the paranormal factor to greek mythology. And as you probably understood, some damn good erotica.

I really don’t feel like I should tell you more about the story, just download the book sample and I promise you, you’ll be hooked from page 1 and will have no other choice but to read the rest. 

Just a warning though, actually make it 2 warnings.

First, if you are expecting some kind of romance here, you’re mistaken. This was pure raw sexual tension, lust and eroticism all the way. I wouldn’t have hoped any less for a vampire story, brutal and rough is the way to go!

Secondly, if you are not to keen on cliffhangers (but who likes them?) then I’ll suggest you to hold off until the next book, because the way Alasdair ended nearly killed me.

It surely opened an array of questions and possibilities for the next installment and I can’t wait to read Isadora’ story!

Excerpt

Alasdair-Teaser-3“Why won’t you just leave me alone?” he finally asked as Alasdair came to a standstill by the kitchen table. “First, you terrorize me, then you kidnap me, and now, you’re hell-bent on destroying my life. If this is your version of playing with your food, I think you’ve taken it far enough.”

Alasdair’s brow rose as he studied him. “Haven’t you awoken in a particularly spirited mood? Thanos was right. I like it,” he said, his tone dropping a few octaves. “It’s more fitting of you.”

“You know nothing about me. And I’m positive you care even less,” he grit out, his anger rising inside him now as he bravely stepped closer. “Why haven’t you killed me? I don’t get what your deal is. Are you bored? Defective? Or something else I haven’t thought of?”

The words fell off his tongue and hovered in the air between them like a provocative dare. He wasn’t sure how Alasdair would react, but before he could continue, he was crushed back against the sink. His hands were trapped behind his back, and the counter dug into his hips as Alasdair held him in place.

“I assure you I am certainly not defective. And you should stop talking. Your words, they will get you—”

“What, killed? You said you liked my newfound spirit. Now, all of a sudden, you don’t?”

“We vampires, we’re fickle creatures. We change our minds every split second,” Alasdair said. “And right now, I’d prefer you to shut your mouth. Or I’ll do it for you. Permanently.”
