This is such a fun idea for a series. All the stories we remember from childhood but given a grown up twist and this author excells at it. Each book in the Blood Prince series builds upon the last to take the reader on an amazing journey and yet all are standalnes without dreadful cliffhangers! Five princes all from different realms which surely must cumulate in an amazing conclusion but for now clear the decks and settle down with this the story of Adonis . Adonis is an incubus and his entanglement with Ivy who is locked within a tower with her long golden hair forms the base for this story.Oh and yes that does kind of remind me of a certain Repunzel fairytale!Adonis is probably the least likely person to expect to find love with just one person as he's an incubus who needs an awful lot of sexual energy just to survive. It's as plain as the nose on his face that one person could never release enough power into him , isn't it? Well maybe not because there are forces at work that put him directly in the path of the most amazing young woman Ivy and Ivy is so much more than she seems . She's remained locked in her tower and believes that her mother is protecting her from all the evils within the world but Ivy is in for a rude awakening because an incubus is quite literally about to drop in on her! From the moment that Adonis first sees Ivy he realises that she's someone special but how can he convince her that a life outside her tower would be better and more to the point how can he ever hope to share that with her? Secrets will be revealed and the ultimate price will have to be paid but meanwhile Ivy will remain forever locked within her tower!I'm loving this unique twist on Rapunzel from Ms Blackstream and thoroughly recommend reading these books right from the very beginning. As I've read each story I've been totally captivated by first her vision of Cinderella with werewolves, then Snow White with vampires and now this featuring the most unlikely hero of them all . Trust me on this one , Adonis may be the bees knees in the bedroom but would you want a guy who is always going to be off with other partners? No well that's the dilemma within these pages and it's a wonderful journey of discovery for both Adonis and the reader alike!Now I know what you are thinking, a hot demon who needs lots of sex guarantees that this will be erotic and naughty but you know what? This story does not rely on sex to titilate the reader and fill out the pages ,no this book tells a really good story with characters to care about and whilst there is heat it's not gratuitous in any way. This has depth and I applaud the author for not just taking the easy route . Simply fabulous. The next book will be a take on the Little Mermaid and a certain grumpy angel by the name of Patricio and I for one can't wait!Start with Before Mdnght and follow the journey for yourself but whatever happens if you love reading about a romantic paranormal hero getting his happy ending then do not miss out on this book!
