Guerino Lombardi's world just went to shit. Vampire and second in command of the Warriors of the Enclave, he's put everything on the line to save his best friend from what has to be the worst blow a man can take. Kenric, his friend and master of the Enclave, has a daughter, something believed impossible in the vampire world, and word has it she wants her father and his Enclave dead. Guerin is determined to protect Kenric, keeping the secret from him until he knows for sure if this daughter really exists and if she wants revenge.

Eve Devonshire is a woman hiding in plain sight. Not completely human, but not quite a vampire, she's accepted by neither race but is more powerful than either one. Her life has consisted of half-truths and disguises, never belonging or living in one place for any length of time. But now some have heard rumors of her existence and want nothing more than to trap her and dissect her like a lab rat.

To stay alive, Eve can't trust anyone, including the alpha vampire with midnight eyes and a thirst for pain and submission. With her enemies nipping at her heels, Eve has Guerin cornered, and both are determined to get the answers they're looking for or die trying...if they can fight their desires long enough.

Contains hot alpha male vampires, including one with a taste for sexual submission that will lead to some highly charged erotic scenes involving anal, BDSM, various restraints, floggers, and whips.


Undying Desire is an action packed dark erotic tale with a plethora of likable and colorful, as well as the nasty characters we love to hate. This is book three in The Enclave series and not having read prior works was not a problem as the world building and character profiles are so well written you do not feel lost, although it is apparent much  has occurred prior to this adventure.

I will admit the reading took me a bit out of my comfort zone, being the first BDSM read for me and the tale begins with a significant introduction to this world. However, it should be noted that even thought this is an erotic tale, it is story driven and the sexuality is not gratuitous but rather part of who the characters are, as well as the reality in which the story takes place. As the story progresses there is much more to it than the smexy, it is a tale of forgiveness, greed, revenge, anger, joy, love, and self-realization. There are some great head-lopping battles, zombies, magic, and much more.

I would recommend this book to adults who enjoy an action packed erotic read and perhaps those wanting to step out of their comfort zone to try something a little different. I received this book with a request for my honest review without any compensation whatsoever, other than the joy of reading a new book.
