***Crimson Debt is a serialized novel in 3 parts. Parts 2 and 3 are also available on kindle unlimited***
A tough, no-nonsense vampire Auditor who doesn't take crap off anyone shouldn't let herself get Cornered by Love...what am I doing?
My name is Addison Godwin and I’m a Non-Glam—one of the one in ten thousand humans who is immune to vampire glamour and mind tricks. My ability enables me to work as an Auditor—a government agent that monitors vampire/human relations and tries to keep the two species apart—sexually at least. That’s because you can’t go to bed with a being strong enough to bend an iron bar in half and not wake up looking like road kill the next morning.
Enter Alec Corbin—a six foot four master vamp with piercing silver-blue eyes who’s a royal pain in my ass. He’s also determined to get me into bed. He swears he can be gentle but I’ve seen enough vamp/human crime scenes that started in passion and ended in tragedy to keep my distance, even if he is supernaturally hot.
But just because I Audit (and sometimes execute) vamps for a living, doesn’t mean I hate them all. My good friend Taylor, was turned against her will. Now, living as a slave to the most sadistic Master vamp in town, she leads a miserable existence and I’m helpless to save her within the confines of the law.
Evangeline Anderson is a registered MRI tech who would rather be writing. And yes, she is nerdy enough to have a bumper sticker that says “I’d rather be writing.” Honk if you see her! She is thirty-something and lives in Florida with a husband, a son, and two cats. She had been writing erotic fiction for her own gratification for a number of years before it occurred to her to try and get paid for it. To her delight, she found that it was actually possible to get money for having a dirty mind and she has been writing paranormal and Sci-fi erotica steadily ever since.
This is the first book in the Born to Darkness series by Evangeline Anderson. This book is a mixture of Anita Blake and Sookie Stackhouse worlds. You first meet Addison an non-glam which means no vampire can glam her and make her feel or image things in her mind. She's also a auditor for government to check on vampire owed companies or bars etc. Alec Corbin is a very old vampire who owes Under the Fang nightclub and has loved Addison since she first checked his premises 2years ago. Really good story just feels at times like its a bit long but a lot does happen and the struggle between Addison and Corbin doesn't feel rushed and develops is a lovely romantic story. Looking for to Taylor story (Addison BFF).
Interesting concept; a human that can't be brain controlled "glam" by a vampire becomes an Auditor, someone that polices human-vampire interactions.
Addison, the Auditor, inspects Corbin's nightclub. She hates all vampires except one, her BFF who was forcibly made a vampire. Corbin has had a thing for Addison since she first walked into his club on an inspection.
I read all three together so my review is for all three.
Her attitude is a little annoying, but it fits perfectly with this story. I can't imagine how I would feel living in a world with vampires, and having to be very careful all the time. Careful about going out at night, catching the wrong person's attention, or worse one of family or friends being hurt. As usual, this author pairs a great story line with romance.
Good book better than I thought it would be. A nice quick read. I plan on reading more of her books. Book flowed nicely. I also enjoyed the characters.
