A dark killer haunts the streets of Los Angeles, stalking unwilling victims and draining their blood. When the evidence runs dry, Detective Max Bowman quenches his thirst at his local bar hoping for inspiration. Instead, he’s robbed and left for dead in the alley. Waking up in the warm bed of horror novelist Carter Gray was the last thing he expected, but it may be the lead he needs. For Carter hides a dangerous secret behind his life as a bestselling author and it might be the answer, no matter how unbelievable, Max has been looking for.
But as they search for the killer, Max begins to wonder if he’s being led in circles by a mastermind of plot twists and deception.

Thirst edition by Lisa Worrall Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
It has been a long time since I read a vampire story. Boy, am I glad I broke my fast with this one. THIRST is a terrific book! It's sexy, hot, exciting, exquisitely written, and spooky as hell. Lisa Worrall did a wonderful job of hurling her reader into a stunning world of hunger, passion, bloodthirsty romance, and a male on male love affair like I've never read before. It was a love affair that transcends life, and when an author can pull that off I think they've accomplished something. THIRST has enough horror to please the horror fans, and enough romance to please the romance fans. And let's not forget Maria Fanning's fabulous cover. It's perfect. I really enjoyed this one.
4.5/5 stars...
Police Detective Max Bowman makes no secret to his fellow officers that he is gay, but he doesn’t flaunt it either. When out at a bar trying to unwind and grab a quick lay, he puts his trust in the wrong person. Max goes from passing out after being bashed and mugged to waking up in a dark room surrounded by red silk sheets. He can feel the remnants of the attack, but he has no memory of how he got where he is. Well, other than a pair of piercing green eyes.
Carter Grey has been on the run for close to eighty years. He realizes exactly what he is, a killer. But there is a suave and finesse to his style both inside and outside the bedroom. He seduces his meals and enjoys them fully before he drains them then buries them. He was going to drain Max as well, until he was caught up in those brown eyes and the enigma that is Max Bowman.
The two things these men do best is fight, and then make up. Carter is determined to live his life alone, soulless, without love. There is something about Max that calls to him though. He swears Max makes his breath catch and his heart beat faster, which is saying something since he has no heart and hasn’t sucked a breath in almost a century. Max feels the pull to Carter as well, so much so that he can find Carter just by mentally wanting to. They don’t understand why they want each other so badly and they give a valiant effort to fight the attraction, well Carter does anyway. When an old enemy makes his presence known, Carter fears losing the one man that has made him feel in over eighty years over a false accusation.
Oh but this book was fun! There was suspense, danger, a bit of comedy and flat out raw sexuality. The banter back and forth between Carter and Max made me snicker more than once. Carter is this other worldly, domineering personality that has to have his way and gives off the ‘I’m not budging’ vibe. While Max is a big, burly cop with the attitude and sex drive to match. There chemistry is immediate and electric, so much so that sometimes it was too much. Like I said, their two favorite things to do were fighting and each other, but the overuse of sex put a little bit of a damper on the story.
But overall, this was still well worth the read. If you are a fan of paranormal, vampires, sex on a stick alpha males and that added air of danger then this is the perfect book for you.
* I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review through http//mmgoodbookreviews.wordpress.com *
A vampire and a homicide detective? What wasn't to be intrigued about? Honestly, I'm not really sure how to rate this book. On one hand I enjoyed it and on the other it frustrated me.
I guess we'll get the negative out of the way. I'm the type that dislikes needless sex scenes- if it doesn't advance the plot, ya don't need it. There are a few such scenes in this book. Some of the sex is indeed plot-advancing, but then others weren't really needed at all or just needed to be a "fade to black" type thing honestly. That said, most of the sex wasn't really that well written either. Again, if you're going to write sex, then make it GOOD. That's not the case here I'm afraid. There are a few steamy bits, don't get me wrong, but on a whole it was rather meh.
Also, I found that the character of Gordon seemed to change in his behavior/characterization- even the way he spoke! He had an established persona and speech pattern at the beginning and then the last two or three chapters he seemed to take on a whole new personality. Lyle is another character we see a rather instantaneous change from at the end- but at least his has an explanation attached to it. Still, it's a rather jarring experience so late in the game and ending the book with the antagonist rather than our protagonists is rather a turn off. And a final character is Alex... When were we ever given the idea that Alex would go and do something so stupid/bold as side with some crazy vamps that want to KILL HIS PARTNER AND FRIEND? It was just too left field and out of the blue to be believable.
Along the same lines, I noticed throughout the story that the author seemed to not be able to make up her mind what type of accent Carter had. (Yes, she establishes the mixed accents due to living in various places but she mentions on a certain twang that comes out at certain points, and then proceeds to change which accent that is back and forth.)
Now, with all that said, the positive. I quite liked the characters of Carter and Max. They were intriguing. I found their push and pull very dynamic. While the whole "love at first sight" concept is ridiculous in other genres, using vampires makes it believable and I'm rather a sucker for the soulmates trope. These two were well-developed and we get a good sense of who they are throughout the story. Their romance is a rather emotional one- but in a good way- and I was constantly rooting for them.
There was a rather beautiful twist towards the end that I enjoyed. When we think it's all over for our leads and then things turn out to be not as they seem.
Overall, as I said, this book left me rather confused on how to feel about it. It was a nice read, don't get me wrong, but I certainly found there were parts I was just wanting it to get over itself to get me some solid plot. It had pacing problems, no doubt. But if you can get past that than I think you'll find a decent story. Can't say that it's worth a BUY, but borrowing it from the library or getting it on sale? Yeah, I'd tell you to pick it up.
I felt the book was ok. My main issue was the main characters, a deadly vampire and a police detective acted like teenage girls in many of their thoughts and actions. It was also predictable and boring the second half.
This book have been out for quite awhile now when I first saw the book I didn't know if I would like it or not other reviews said it was a dark vampire story. Months later I saw this book again with a different cover but the same book I decided to give it a try boy I'm glad I did it was a wonderful book I loved Max and Carter and I was happy to see that after all the trouble he caused Lyle got his second chance at happiness even though I shouldn't but I understood why he did what he did.
