The Vampire Queen's Servant by Joey W. Hill

The characterizations are as complicated as the dark world this book set itself in. So, it is a romance story but with enough twists. On the other hand, Elyssa had another motive to reject his offerings, she is dying and by giving him all of her marks, he would die if she dies. All these time, he had to get used to the ideas of being under Elyssa’s dominance, as a queen and also as a master.

Technically, whole focus of the story was on Jacob trying to gain the trust of Lady Elyssa by becoming her human servant and Elyssa’s continual refusal even if she need him. With the help of Thomas, he trained to serve her and seemingly prepared to offer everything for her and this is for a reason. As for Jacob, he was a trained Vampire Hunter who choose to serve Elyssa because even he couldn’t escape her intriguing presence. The problem is, serving a powerful female vampire need a certain level of servitude required and Jacob is not a submissive in any sense. However, to her surprise, she received an unexpected surprise when her former human servant, a monk named Thomas, gifted her with a human servant or technically a slave to her needs. Lady Elyssa herself is a considered an extinct creature as a vampire royalty and one of the creatures of the night you shouldn’t mess with. Even I wasn’t but I was curious enough to read it only to find again this is really a well written book on the subject. Actually this isn’t a BDSM erotica in that spanking and kinky spectrum but it does consist on some issues on dark sexuality that may or may not up to anyone’s cup of tea. The Vampire Queen’s Servant is a paranormal erotica with enough romance element that is curiously more in context of power play and trust within a relationship than other conventional BDSM book.

In this time where EL James’s 50 Shades of Grey kept popping up in any conversation regarding ‘conventional’ erotica (which apparently set a standard for everyone to disregard an actual storytelling and comprehensible language), The Vampire Queen’s Servant is surprisingly enjoyable to read and written by the wildly talented author who managed to blend sexual intensity and characterization in one book without compromising anything.
