Publisher's summary
A world of sex, magic, and old gods awaits, and the LaMascares Mansion is the doorway....
Justin Devereaux has always been different, and not just in looks from his parents. His interests run to the magical and mysterious while theirs seem very pedestrian and small. The one thing that has always interested him and frightened them is the LaMascares Mansion. The mansion has sat long, seemingly empty and abandoned, but Justin feels someone in it watching over him.
Peren LaMascares has been trapped in the mansion on the hill for too many years to count. He needs a LaMascares’ heir to free him and bring about the family’s - and world’s - dark destiny. He finds that heir in the innocent, unsuspecting Justin.
Peren leads Justin into a world of sex, magic, and old gods. Will Justin abandon all the morals he’s ever had so that he can have the lust-filled passion that Peren offers forever?

I don't have time for mysterious strangers. Even the really hot ones. I met him in a bar the night before I left to move across the country - and I never expected to see him again. But then he followed me.... It would be creepy if he was just a stalker - but he’s not. He’s a protector, shielding me from a group of nutjobs who believe in dragons. He saved my life - but now it’s my turn. And apparently, the nutjobs aren’t wrong. Dragons are real. And I hold the key to saving them all.

Getting into the vampire-only detective unit was the easy part. What’s going to be more difficult is dealing with my new partner - an ancient vampire who keeps threatening to eat me. The unit has never had a human in it. Marcus - or, as I like to call him: Fangy McFangface - would really prefer to keep it that way. He’s grumpy, short-tempered, and broody, but I have a way with words, and I know he’s starting to like me, even if he swears he’s not.

Smart men never dabble with demons. I never claimed to be smart, but at least, I’m powerful enough to control them. When I bound Havoc to me nearly 300 years ago, I never realized how difficult he’d make my life, although “accidentally” lighting him on fire every now and then does bring a smile to my face. Havoc is handsome, mysterious, and somehow, my closest companion, even if we don’t always get along.

From the moment he walked into the club, Casey knew this guy was different.

But even as a 200-year-old descendent of Hercules, he wasn't strong enough to resist....

Not what I expected!
I have read and listened to quite a few books from this author. This book was not at all what I expected. Storyline left me feeling a waste of time, and lacking in giving depth in characters where the story was going.

The story is good, but ends abruptly
I really enjoyed the story, and the narrator does a very good job. However, the story feels very quick and doesn’t give much background. In general I wish it had been longer, just to let the story develop.

Weird twist on good vs evil 😶
It goes to show you, one ever really knows. I like the whole mystery aspect of the story. Towards the end, it’s a wonder if there’s indeed such things as good and evil. I for one, have yet to meet an unflawed person.
Justin Devereaux is intrigued and fascinated by the LaMascares 🎭 Mansion, to the point of obsession. Dark. Truly dark. The mysterious man introduces young Justin to sex. As much as Justin wants to do what’s right, he’s disturbed and conflicted. Like I said, dark. And… it may not be for everyone. I have enjoyed Raythe’s Reign since 2017. Once again, a gripping story by X. Aratare. 💕 Perfectly, beautifully written. And a disturbing one! 😈
As far as narration by Chris Patton, wonderfully executed as always. -A fan. 💘
PS: this is a weird short horror story. Something I would expect cooked up in the 70’s. 😝 Definitely not romance.

It was ok....
I normally love the author but this story was difficult to listen to at times. The intimate scenes weren't sweet and loving, more sinister and almost rapey. ( If that's even a word)

A great quick read
I thoroughly enjoyed this short story and its darker theme. All the smut descriptions were very good and had me excited whilst reading through all those steamier scenes.
Kinda wished that at the end Justin would've just given himself over entirely to the dark pleasures offered by Peren and embraced his own darker side and desires. Alas, that's not what happened, but the ending was still satisfactory enough. Also feels like it could have a continuation, should the author decide to pursue this story further, given how it ended.
It was a great quick read. Would recommend :)

excellent performance, rushed perverted ending
the first 2/3rds of the story is very well built and tense Lovecraftian horror that simply SKIPS to the next bit...which covers dark and frankly perverted sexual content. Completely dubious non consentual sex with a literal demon and cult leader, while the underage or CLOSE to it male protagonist is in no uncertain terms raped and his parents forced to watch😅. yaaaa. There's also a large hole in the plot where the story simply Skips to the sex scenes.
