After finishing this book I quickly went to the next in the series, “The Orb” and was delighted with new characters and a continuation of Tom and Elizabeth’s story. Can’t wait for the third book to come out!This story begins with Tom, a smart, attractive college student with a strong libido planning out his next move. Since Halloween is the next day he better find himself a great costume, the key to getting into a naughty nurse’s undies is to impress with a manly outfit and quick wit. He has the wit so he’s on a quest to find the costume to match.When he finds the odd shop that he swears wasn’t there yesterday his brain rationalizes that he must’ve been too drunk to notice it before. Besides, the only time he was in this side of town was when he was downing drinks at the club. So he ventures in and meets the lovely Elizabeth, and she changes his life forever.What I’ve come to really enjoy about this author’s writing is the realness factor. Our brains are so wired to accept the things we see that we can rationalize almost anything. So it is with Tom, the costume can’t really be moving, it most be the lighting. My body is changing into a woman, okay… I must be on an acid trip!I enjoyed the humor, hot hot hot sex scenes and the creativity in this book and book two. I have so many questions (mostly about Elizabeth’s past) so I am excited for the third installment to come out.Oh and out of curiosity I Googled “Symbiote” and this is what Wikipedia gave me, “The Symbiotes envelop their hosts like costumes, creating a parasitic bond through which the host's mind can be influenced.” – which is exactly what happens to Tom in this story. But here is where the author gets creative, these humans did not simply stumble across some amazing life altering creatures. Nope, it’s a lot more intricate and interesting story.
