Several years ago, I read the first two books in this series and for some reason I lost touch with this author until this book, Vampire's Embrace. When I did a little research, I realized there are numerous books in this series and my TBR (to be read) pile has grown exponentially.
On to the review. I can't say enough about Joey W. Hill's world building skills. This book is set during WWII. The MC is a nurse in the Australian Army and you are quickly embroiled into the horrors of war through the steady, compassionate, and courageous eyes of the nurses and all they sacrificed and endured to protect the wounded.
Intricately woven into this human history is the vampire world and the author ties the two worlds together in such a way you never question the truth of their existence. This book, along with the others I've read, have strong elements of erotica, and even though I dabble in light erotica in my books, the scenes in Vampire's Embrace pushes my boundaries. As did the others in this series.
But as always, the author's phenomenal writing is what keeps it from tittering over the edge. The male vampire is strong but compassionate. A true master. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is a stand alone but I fully intend to go back and read the ones I've missed.
