I run a Facebook group and am usually very active, posting many times throughout the day.  Not today.  I spent the afternoon  reading. Standing up despite physical limitations, because the book was sitting near the table and I got up from lunch to get it and then settle in to read and I opened it instead and got sucked in immediately and so I stood up all afternoon reading, devouring the book, unable to do anything else -- including take a potty break or pull my attention away long enough to walk 6 feet to my chair -- until I'd finished it. What book could hold me like that, you ask? This one.  If you want steamy man-on-man sex, vampires that don't sparkle, and LUST, buy it. Like now. I'm still fanning myself and thinking about cold showers.Keith and Javier are fascinating, and the sexual tension quivers like a strung and pulled bow.  The others who play a part in their lives -- Keith's servants Amaroq, Marlon, Linette and Margot, Javier's wife Ofelia, and the man who is determined to hunt Keith down, Chrétienne de Sens -- are much more than walk-on characters and each has his or her own quirks, foibles and desires as they help or hinder Keith's pursuit of Javier.  Rich, full characterizations, well-described settings, and writing that draws you in and does not fail to deliver on its early promise make this a book well worth reading.  And now, I'm off to read it again, savoring each detail once more.  Or twice more.
