About this listen
Vampires, mermaids, and witches...oh, my! Black Veil is full of them all, but at the end of the day, it's The Blood Boss who has the last word. Ever since The Final War, Vampires rule Black Veil, and with The Blood Boss in charge, peace reigns.
Keeping the vampires under control is a task Cain takes seriously. Humans have accepted his rule, and anyone who seeks to destroy his territory is given swift punishment. His promise to keep Black Veil safe comes with great sacrifice and selflessness; never does he dare hope for more in life. Until one day, a man walks through his front door and changes everything.
Jayce has a happy life. His adopted parents love him, he wants for very little, and he lives every day to the fullest. But when a normal evening turns into a nightmare, and Jayce is forced to come face-to-face with The Blood Boss, the world as he knows it feels like a lie.
Then a great secret is revealed, and nothing is what it seems. Cain and Jayce must work together to stop the forces uniting against the vampires. Can Cain and Jayce keep Black Veil from crumbling into the sea when every attempt to do so seems impossible?
Contains mature themes.

As this is a short, far too much was packed into it, meaning that the romance kinda fell by the wayside.
It was too much of a slow-burn for such a story & the spice was at best vanilla & only a little sprinkling of black pepper!
I do have to give props to the author however, as both MCs are adorable, sweet & lovable
lovable
I loved that Cain always explained everything to Jayce. Emil was a blast whenever he made an appearance. Petrou was an intriguing character, but he gave nothing away.
I get that it this is an M/M novel, but there was a little bit of anti-female sentiment in it I felt as most, if not all women were either the antagonists, useless, evil or nasty. Honestly, there's only one female that I can think of that was a nice character!
There were quite a few inane moments in the story. I honestly can't believe that someone as ancient as Cain wouldn't be practically invincible by this point.
That Jayce's powers wouldn't have manifested in some way before they did or that they wouldn't make him a lot more powerful than he felt by the end of the novel.
Also, that they wouldn't have round the clock security for Jayce's family or that they wouldn't move the family to the Vampire fort whilst danger was so imminent.
But, all in all, it was a good story... it just needed to be a lot longer so as ti better set-up the world building & this pairing's romantic story.
mostly good
