The Threads of Crimson serial continues. We are back with Lysandro and Benji with the aftermath of the events from the Velvet Vein.
From the blurb:
An ancient vampire who never wanted a family. A human who's becoming impossible to leave. A life neither of them expected.
Bringing Benji to Willowhope was supposed to keep him safe. Lysandro Moretti didn't expect it to feel so much like bringing him home.
As Benji discovers the sweet, colorful man beneath the terrifying vampire he met at The Velvet Vein, Lysandro is discovering something far more unsettling—he likes having Benji in his life.
Then a newly turned vampire needs his help. Suddenly, the ancient vampire who spent centuries avoiding responsibility is teaching someone how to survive an eternity he never asked for, while Benji quietly becomes the one thing Lysandro never expected to need.
When danger follows his newest responsibility to Willowhope, Lysandro will have to decide how far he's willing to go for someone who's becoming one of his own.
Everyone in Willowhope knows Lysandro is kind, but they're about to discover just how dangerous he can be when someone threatens the people he loves.
Threads of Crimson: Vampire’s Promise II continues Lysandro and Benji's four-part serialized MM vampire romance with protective obsession, blood and desire, found family, an ancient vampire discovering he has a heart after all—and the first glimpse of the destiny that will change vampire society forever.
Molly Otto's review:
When Lysandro takes him to Willowhope he isn't prepared for his growing feelings for the mortal snd politely put doesn't handle it well. To add to that he has to deal with whats happening with our Willowhope men (if haven't yet read Ego's Guide to Love Bites & Vampires, not necessary but gives you more into that part of the story) and what taking out another high level vampire means and how it will affect him and Benji. Benji is holding his own secrets and personally I cannot wait to see how that all plays out in the next installment. What a great read to tie in both of Lysnadro's worlds and to show another side of the character we already loved from the Willowhope series.
SNik's review:
Second in serial (Vampire’s Promise), must be read in order. Paranormal. Established couple. Slow burn/low burn. Quick read. Dual POV.
Benji has agreed to go home with Lysandro leaving New York behind and we find Lysandro’s secret home is a small town with other supernaturals living there.
As months pass, Benji and Lysandro fall into a comfortable relationship that is more snuggles and drinking blood than anything else, and that was fine. There is still a lot for Benji to learn about vampire society and there is danger still creeping in on them so there are still a lot of unknowns. I have not read the author’s Willowhope series so many of the introduced characters were new to me, but I’m guessing fans of that series will have fun reading about them in this story. Overall, this was a good continuation but not a lot happens with Benji and Lysandro’s romance, so hopefully we will get more in the next episode.
