Another spellbinding story from, the mega talented Laura Wright.Synjon is a vampire who just lost his mate. He has come to the isolated rain forest to let the sun take him as it takes his mate's body. Fortunately Petra, an untransitioned shifter is there to pull him back. When he awakens in a shifter medical facility, he is not a happy vamp. he is in pain, physically and emotionally. He is also starved and Petra smells delicious.I took the night to mull over this short story, tossing it back and forth. Wavering on whether or not to up my rating to five stars. The writing was of course superb. As a long time fan of Synjon, I first met him on the Roman Brothers Facebook page, I wanted his story desperately. I wanted him to find peace and love. I couldn't in my mind give Eternal Beauty five stars because it was more of a prologue. Don't get me wrong, I devoured this book. I reveled in this book. But I likened it to a starving person in front of a prime rib dinner. They can only eat the garnish and maybe take a bite of bread, but could only stare longingly at the prime rib. What they consumed gave them life, but they are still ravenous for the meat.
