Great start to new spin off series.

We are once again treated by this author to an engaging plot with complex main characters and a mystery to solve.
This is told from Evan’s POV. He’s a vampire private detective and circumstances lead him to Colin, a human who has just been made aware that Paranormals and magic exist.
Even though these two likeable characters become soul bonded they are yet to build a real connection between themselves so there is only very low heated scenes. We are left with Evan and Colin and a potential for a really special relationship between them in the HFN ending. They both have “bruises on our hearts” which need to be taken into account.
I find this to be a very enjoyable read and look forward to more in this spin off series. It can be read as a standalone but I do believe it would enrich your reading experience if you at least read the the final book in the Not Dead Yet series. This would provide more insight into Evan and the other wonderful side characters.
