Review: A pretty refreshing plot.

A pretty unique story line here, with a world where humans and vampires coexist amiably. Like the other reviewers have noted, the human Bran is a well developed character. I appreciate the idea of Bran working in a teenage shelter for both unwanted humans and vampires teens, whom Bran cares for. While I quite like the story I do have a problem with Heath's character. He is a nine centuries old vampire and likely the oldest vampire in existence. He is suppose to have lost most of his humanity and very jaded. But somehow Heath come across not that different from just another gay man in love, except that he falls into a coma during the day because he cannot withstand the sun. Infact Heath come across very vulnerable and really like a love struck fool when he met Bran again. I know this is a MM romance but this couple's interaction is more like a two gay men love story and not a human-vampire love story. Also the back 15% of the story seems to drag a bit with attention shifting somewhat to the other couples. Guess this is a set up for a sequel ? But there is a decent plot here and I like the fact that the sex scenes are kept short.
