Book 4 in the Vampire Erotic Theatre introduces us to two new characters, Andreu and Payne, who come to the theatre to cover for Javier and Callum as they honeymoon and take care of their new mates.Andreu is Javier's brother and comes to the theater to cover for his brother while he spends time with his new mate. Andreu looks at his time at the theater as an opportunity to learn the ropes to one day soon run his own theater. However, Andreu has no plans to be a grunt at his theater and he is definitely not going to get shackled by a mate. At least that was the plan before a sexy succubus was drawn to the erotic acts on the stage.Varya is a succubus, part of the fae world, she knows that she shouldn't be at the theater since her magic won't hide her from the strongest of the vampires, but her curiosity leads her inside where she sees Andreu. As desire flares between the pair, Varya finds herself unable to leave the male that has a dark aura and therefore is considered against the law by her race. This gorgeous man who she can't read keeps bringing her back to the theater until a final encounter causes Andreu and Varya to realize that what they thought they wanted and knew may not be all there is. Will they allow love into their lives?I have to admit that at first I was disappointed that this book wasn't about Snow and didn't really like Andreu's arrogance, however, as his character was developed in this story he did grow on me. Although, not one of my favorite characters of the series, this was a good story and I absolutely loved Varya. The twists and turns as we watch the two lovers grow together and learn a bit more about Payne through his interactions with them, really intrigued me. Heaton did an amazing job of introducing two new characters to the series line up and I can't wait for Book 5, Bewitch, so I can watch Payne meet his mate!
