Ranch owner Quinn Pedraza has to find someone to run the saloon he won in a bet, but more than that, he needs a woman who can handle his alpha personality...and closet submissive sexual cravings. When vampire Selene Torres arrives on the scene, he gets everything he wants-and learns what he really needs. Inside Scoop: Quinn's BDSM journey is not for the faint of heart and includes extreme sexual situations and dubious consent, as well as male/male scenes.

Fangs and cowboys and chaps, Oh Myyyy...

At a time when vampires are losing their (sorry) sparkle for me, Vampire Queen series remains the one bright light in the genre. And this is simply because Joey W. Hill can keep any storyline alive because she is a consummate and compassionate storyteller. Every story is new. Every. Time.

She and Desiree Holt are on the same wave-length for this book, because I defy anyone to pick out who wrote what bits.

This story was compelling in that both Selene and Quinn were new to the whole "Me Vamp-You Third Marked Servant" life and lifestyle and yet they both knew they could and would do this thing; for each other first, and then for themselves. Outwardly, the only person who really saw Selene's vulnerability, a fatal flaw for any vamp and especially one who pushed the envelope, was Quinn. Her ties to her very recent humanity put her in a precarious position, and only a very strong human-made-third-mark servant like Quinn, who was still getting in touch with his own inner being, could balance her.

I loved the almost mentorship Selene had with Butch, and that Quinn seemed to have with Dix. These two secondary characters have their own story to tell, as do Annette and Sam. Another plus, when a story is so character rich you can taste the possibilities.

Kudos Ms. Hill and Ms Holt. A perfect blending of the minds and the methods. Not to mention, the whole chaps and fangs thing...just sayin'...

I’ll say up front that I’m a rabid Joey W. Hill fan so I approached the prospect of her partnership with Desiree Holt - or with anyone, I suspect - with some trepidation. For nothing. Bottom line: it works. NIGHTFALL is a richly textured addition to the Vampire Queen series. It is every bit as dark, layered, and sizzling hot as the others in that family, but somehow more easy to relate to, perhaps because of Selene’s relative youth in terms of vampire age. She has yet to lose all sense of humanity, but make no mistake: she is first and foremost a vampire, which means a kick ass, super-horny and blood thirsty (literally) female. As for Quinn, we witness a good ol’ Texas alpha male struggle to find his place with a woman and a society that demand his submission and subjugation - and that's even before he becomes aware of what's expected of a third-marked servant. They are all hard choices and hard pills for him to swallow, but love makes it more palatable. Besides, he does it his way - not always successfully, but he's male and Texan and third-marked or not, there are some things about him that ain't gonna change. End result - NIGHTFALL is a winner. My congratulations to Hill and Holt for a collaboration very well done.

As Hot as this Series Gets

Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2024

I've read many of the vampire queen series from Joey W. Hill, but I don't think I'm familiar with Desiree Holt. This book takes place within the same universe as vampire queen of all, Lyssa, who is mentioned a couple of times during the political maneuvering which is an innate part of vampire society. These are not sparkly vampire, folks, these are mean and sexual vampires, so if you can't handle that, stay away from the series.

In this adjacent book, the romance aspect is cranked up minus the hate part of the normal hate to love movement that happens in stereotypical romances. If you like kinky books, you need to be aware that consent is a confused matter in this (and all of the vampire queen series) so let that guide you, too.

Personally, I felt the book was more focused on sex scenes than the story I found myself surprisingly interested in since I normally do not care for or about "cowboy" or "Texas" culture.

Collaboration At Its Best

Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2014

Separately, Joey W Hill and Desiree Holt are truly amazing authors who give us hours of pleasurable reading.

Together??? Without question they have created one of the best books I have ever read. Do you love vampires? Check. Joey is the queen of vampire books and gives us a vampire worthy of our love and respect. Do you love cowboys? Check. Desiree is the queen of cowboys and gives us a Texas alpha cowboy to die for. Introduce the vampire to the cowboy and BAM!!! Instant bestseller. This is a book you will not be able to put down once you start it. Quinn and Selene will steal your heart and the HOTNESS between these two will have you reaching for a cool drink frequently.

I don't do a lot of reviews, but if I had to recommend just one book, it would be this one. These authors are so talented they make it look easy. The amazing results of their collaboration is something you don't want to miss. Let's hope it's only the beginning for this dynamic duo.

ADJUSTING PAST AND PRESENT TO ACHIEVE THE FUTURE

Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2021

Verified Purchase

It’s more than lust, this immediate sizzle between Quinn and Selene, it’s life-changing. However, indulging that sizzle brings danger with it, as well as a sometimes confusing and incomprehensible world. Both Quinn and Celine are learning to adjust, though that adjustment at times comes very slowly.
Nightfall is an intriguing mix of the vampire world and the human world, how they coexist and sometimes not. At its core this story is about trust. Definitely a not to be missed erotic book that grabs you immediately and doesn’t let go even to the end. Highly recommend.

This is the first vampire book of this author I've read. Really love Joey's other books and this one is no different. Team her with Desiree Holt and we have a winner. I'm a big fan of vampire romances with a touch of BDSM.

Quinn Pedraza is a rancher and a bar owner. Trying to juggle both businesses is getting beginning to wear him out. If only he had a better bar manager than the idiot he has now.....Enter Selene Torres. Selene is a vampire, but a young one by vampire standards. She running from the brutal abuse of Region overload vampire in New York. Selene is also a Domme and she is determined too make the alpha male human her human servant/submissive.

I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more in the Vampire Queen series.

Draws you in right from the begining. How can you not cheer for these two people that seem so unsuited and yet are both so commited to each other. Love this whole series.
