Eddie is an hairstylist... I believe this is the first time I read a book where one of the main character is an hair stylist, and this is not a small detail, but it's something that characterizes J.P. Bowie's work: he puts together simple guys, with ordinary life, with wonderful and unbelievable vampires. Obviously the simple guy of the time is overwhelmed by the stunning vampire's world, and can't help to madly falling in love for the vampire: the lure of wealthy is as much powerful as the lure of sex... between a huge mansion in the best neighbor of Los Angeles, and an handsome naked vampire in a satin sheet covered bed, how can the simple guy resist? And why he should?
So, come back to Eddie. He is just out of an abusive relationship with a unworthy boyfriend. One of his customer, a movie star, invites him to his Halloween party, and Eddie decides to dress as an angel. With some help from friends, and some paranormal events, Eddie arrives to the party to find there Joshua, an handsome man he met in a bar some day before. From that moment on, Eddie's quite life is no more the same...
The story is not very long, 72 pages, but it's sweet and romantic. All in all, I was almost as interest in Eddie and Joshua than in Sam Peterson, the movie star who invites Eddie. I'd be happy to read a story about him, maybe also a "normal" story, without vampires and co: a boy meets boy type of story, with the allure of the movie industry setting.
There is not a real link to the previous vampire stories by J.P. Bowie, even if it's only a detail. The world is the same, Joshua, the vampire, hints that he probably knows the other Los Angelos vampires; so I will not consider this as part of a series, but you know that this story has the same feeling and setting of the others.
