After Darkness Falls

After Darkness Falls, Book 1

De: May Sage

Narrado por: Lucy Rivers, Aiden Snow

They’ve exterminated an entire bloodline, purging the world of the only creatures vampires dread. Or so they think.

Chloe used to study hard and do everything right to pave a bright future, but children sometimes have to pay for their parents’ sins, and Chloe’s tab is pretty steep. At 26, when a series of attacks forces her to seek refuge in the notorious Institute of Paranormal Studies, Chloe sees it as a second chance to achieve her goals. She believes she has nothing to lose. She couldn’t be more mistaken.

Levi has had centuries to observe the mortals and immortals of this world. He knows what the sassy woman who entered his domain is at first glance. A relic of the old days...so ancient that even an elder lord descended from the first immortals has reason to fear her.

He should slit her throat while he has the chance.

He should.

After Darkness Falls is one in a series of stand-alone paranormal romance novels.

Interesting, though not much of a romance!

The heroine: Chloe - she is twenty-five years old and has worked hard to pay her bills. She remembers how self-centered she was as a teen and hadn’t cared about or known what her father was up to, it turned out he was a serial killer and was arrested, taking away all the prospects she had for college. She is now doing good now, but still wanted better for herself.

The Hero: Levi (a.k.a. Leviathan) - He is vampire royalty and is over 2000 years old with long black hair, a muscular frame and an unnaturally handsome face. He also was the owner of the Institute for Supernatural Studies and had a lot of clout in the supernatural world. Levi also loved to study things that didn’t make sense and Chloe was exactly that. So was the blood sickness that infected some vampires, his top priority was to study the sickness and find a cure.

The Story: Chloe was a human (a regular) who worked at a bar owned by a vampire and frequented by supernatural creatures. Her boss Charles ruled New Orleans and had a soft spot for Chloe. So, when someone placed a hit on her, Charles enrolls her at the prestigious Institute for Supernatural Studies in England because no human can reach her there.

The story is interesting, though there is not a lot of interaction between Levi and Chloe. I did like Chloe’s quest to learn more about the supernatural world. This world is much different than any others I have read about before. The seven families of the nobility were turned by the goddess Ariadne. Chloe hangs around with huntsmen and is being protected by vampires. The world is very interesting, and I wouldn’t mind reading more of this series.

This book was told in dual points of view via dual narration and was narrated by Lucy Rivers and Aiden Snow. I love Aiden Snow’s voice; he is one of my favorite male narrators. He has a deep, sexy voice and he always does a great job at narration. Lucy Rivers has a nice soft voice, though there is something about her voice that I don’t like, I am not sure if it was because she sounds older than 25 years or the fact that her male vampire voice was really bad.

Love this Series

I have listened and read this series several times! it is a beautifully written collection and if you love any sort of paranormal romance I highly recommend it. the first one isn't super-let's say- graphic but still wonderful the following ones get more delicious.

*truly entertaining*

Sage has it people! The "it" factor readers hunger for. Staying within tried and true parameters, May wrote a paranormal story of a woman living in constant fear, dreaming of a better tomorrow. With limited resources, her options were nonexistent, until her employer decided to sponsor her and fulfill her dreams of attending Europes paranormal academy. With a semi-unified diversity of students and faculty, the academy is everything Chloe hoped for until Vampire royalty suspects she's their doom. The story is full of wit, charm, sexual tension and fascinating bloodlines! I'm definitely moving on to book two.

After Darkness Falls

Loved this story! It was so different from other vampire stories and loved the characters. I noticed book 2 is about Bash. I'm kind of sad because I want more Chloe and Levi!
Loved the narration! Lucy Rivers is one of my favorite narrators

Great Vamp Story

I love Levi and Chloe relationship! The love hate relationship is always the best fight to make up . This was a lovely story on somebody learning their background and evolving in body and mind . Great job can’t wait to read the next book .

Good storyline but…

The Lucy was really hard to listen to.. Aiden would have been better reading the whole book.. other than that it’s a good storyline

Not your average romance

I liked it. If you like your books dirtier this isn't it, but good story and characters. Nice twist also.

Very 👍 good listen.

You will not be disappointed. Fantastic story the author and the narrators pull you into this world.
