About this listen

Mark Hansen thought working as artist's assistant would be glamorous, especially if that artist was a vampire. Black tie events, witty repartee, gracing the pages of the local style section. Didn't happen. Not even once.

Jonathan Varga is an enigma. True, he's quiet, generous, and scrupulously polite. But he has zero social life, refuses to be interviewed or photographed, and insists he can only consume feline blood.

Why supermarket blood won't suffice, Mark hasn't asked. He's rarely at a loss for words - he can dish an insult and follow it with a snap as quick as you can say "Miss Thang." But one look at Jonathan's black-as-sin gypsy eyes, and Mark's objections drain away.

So he endures the perpetual grind of their routine: Jonathan hiding in his studio, swiping black paint onto black canvases. Mark hurling insults while he buffs the office to a shine with antiviral wipes. Each of them avoiding the other in a careful choreography...until a blurb in Art in America unleashes a chain of harrowing events neither of them could foresee.

As secrets from Jonathan's past are brought to light, it becomes clear that all his precautions weren't nearly enough.

A very different and eminently plausible take on the Vampire legend. It’s a great story taken to the next level by an awesome voice actor. I loved it.

Fabulous.

I've just finished listening to Hemovore/Sweetness. I absolutely loved it, but it really made me think about the pandemic we find ourselves in and the way that different countries are handling it. I can't help but think of the people refusing to wear masks and the impact that would have had on the spread of HHV. I also look at the BLM movement and despair at the full on civil war I'm guessing a VML movement would have caused. I think this book will stay with me for a very long time.

The story is very exciting, low on steam but high on emotion and with an HEA. Joel Leslie does an incredible job as always.

Excellent and thought provoking.

I would have liked to read a whole series with this world and characters.

A hard subject told beautifully

Joel Leslie evoked the characters vividly. The story starts by having to set up the alternative world but still moves fast enough you don't feel swamped with detail. It moves smoothly into a romantic adventure with a satisfying conclusion. There is a free novella ("Sweet") at the end to see how things turn out later...

Romance in a time of viruses

Not sure I chose the best time to listen to this story, but the concept is interesting and well written. The characters are likeable and the narration is good.
