Midnight Comes by L.M. Hatchell is a prequel novella to the Midnight Trilogy.

This novella is only 38 pages but it is enough to give us a basic idea of the world and each of the characters. I can’t wait to pick up the trilogy to find out what happens!

We follow a Vampire & a Fae who are banished for falling in love in this fast-paced novella. The characters are strong and it is easy to love them and want to know more. The premise of the story is believable and intriguing. The magic system is interesting and I look forward to learning more about it in the first book in the series.

Hook, line, and sinker.

I've been caught. Hooked by this short tempting book that's packed with piercing characters and intriguing plot lines, I fully intend on sinking my teeth into this series.

I'm a goner indeed.

Time to consume the rest!
