A 'Non' Review of Nightside by V.L. Locey (with apologies to the author)

Nightside: An Erie Vampire Tale (Erie #2) by V.L. Locey DNF
BLURB: Being a new member of the undead sect has its ups and downs, something that newly embraced Akio Lee is finding out first hand. Being able to spend eternity with his beloved Vincente, the man who introduced him to life in the nightside, is a definite up. Having to sneak up and feed on strangers? That’s one of the downsides, and something that Akio is finding difficult to swallow. But what other option is there for a recently wed vampire couple who need blood to survive?
Finding a new donor perhaps? One who comes into the lifestyle willingly, as Akio had done, and is open to the unique and sensual relationship that develops when three men have a blood bond. A man who can exist in both the nightside and the dayside worlds. A man like Dalton Briggs, the tall, dark, and handsome caretaker of the manse Akio and Vincente now call home? Dalton seems to tick every box Akio and Vincente have: he’s comfortable around vampires, he’s obviously into men, he’s drop dead gorgeous, and he’s human. But will the outgoing handyman be willing to offer two vampires his vein, his body, and his heart?


My Review: I received a copy in exchange for an honest review. This is one of those times I feel really sorry for the author and their wasted hard work, because even though I enjoyed the writing, I couldn't really get into the book.
At the time I agreed to review it, I had no idea it was book two in a series and that it couldn't be read as a stand alone. Unfortunately, I soon got lost and felt myself floundering. That being the case, rather than continue and make matters worse and end up giving a bad review to something that didn't deserve it, I've left it as a DNF.
until such time as I'm next in the mood for vampires and have book one on hand to read first,
