I liked Snare much better than the previous book in this series. I won’t lie, knowing that the threesome was a one-off helped.

There's a lot happening in this one. Doctor Jim is back! Man, is that guy creepy or what. Michael’s sister makes a reappearance! And there’s a dangerous run-in with another vamp! ( )

I am so in lust with the cover model. His profile is better because his eyes are ever so slightly too close together, but he is so beautiful.

Anyway, on to the writing. At first I didn't like this one as well as most of the others because it started out weakly. I felt the two guys were distant and their love didn't show. At one point I felt that the only way they knew how to show their love was through sex. But it got better and the last quarter was wonderful.

There was some lovely and romantic imagery. For example, Bill says to Michael:

"Just lemme hold you while the sun comes up. You're the silver cord that anchors me in the land of the living while my soul spends the day roaming through hell."

Nit picks: You don't need a credit card to get a cell phone. A Trac-phone, for example, is prepaid and cheap. Harman gets the phone number right away, as in within a few minutes. While we later find out he's talked to the sister, how did he know that they got the phone when they did? Yeah, it's creative license, but still. It could have been written, "a couple of hours later...."

The drama/danger at the end was really good. I loved how Bill's love was shown in his actions rather than with him saying it out loud. Sometimes I think he loves Michael more than Michael loves him. I think that's why I prefer the stories told from his perspective. But in this one, Michael actually says the words "I love you" although he was under much duress at the time. Bill's reaction is to call him a drama queen, so I'm not really clear on whether either has ever said them before.

I love this series and I'm glad this ended on a romantic and sweet note. They almost all do, but I wasn't sure how romantic this one would be given the first half. But it was good.

First half=2.5 stars, second half = 5 stars, so 3.75 rounded up to 4. ( )

Call me crazy, or hopelessly romantic, but I feel like Michael and Wild Bill are setting down... they are not yet arrived to decide china patterns, but I will not bet that it couldn't happen.

Some of this feelings arrive from the opening scene, where Michael is remembering some good moments of the past, when he had an home and a family, and this is reinforced when his sister Julie comes to visit, bringing a cell phone Michael's mother wants absolutely his son has with him. This cell phone represents a link with the past, but also a bridge to a possible future... again, call me crazy, but I can see a future for Michael and Wild Bill near Michael's family, a future in which Michael finally starts college and Wild Bill... well I don't know, maybe he will play the housewife.

Anyway it's not only the cell phone that gave me that idea, it's also the sex between Michael and Wild Bill (and yes, only between Michael and Wild Bill, not intruder this time); I don't exactly remember if in the past it was so intimate like this time, I remember it was hot the first time they did IT alone, but this time I could almost feel their body, Michael's emotion were bare and Wild Bill seemed gentler and more caring. It was also one of the few time that anything of vampire interferes between them, there was not the urge of feeding, but only the strong pull to be together, as near as possible, more one body than two. I don't know, it was almost like if Michael was more aware of his body, and of the things his lover was doing to his body, and above all he was more aware of who was doing that... Wild Bill was no more only his lover, he was his partner, the half share of a whole they can be only together.

There is also another step in Michael's discovery journey for something even him doesn't know what, but it's not the focus of the story; it's an important detail, probably it bears an important clue for the future books, but I was so entranced by the previous sex scene between Michael and Wild Bill, that I read all the rest of the story in a dazed condition, still lingering with the mind on what has happened just before. If someone reading this series has ever doubted on Michael and Wild Bill's love, reading this book he will dissipate all of them.
