I received an eARC from Netgalley in exchange for a honest review
Dorian and Cash are best friends, roommates, and coworkers. Despite their significant differences - Dorian is a vampire and Cash is a human who hunts monsters - they’ve grown to care about each and they make a good team, hunting down killer monsters at the behest of the Devereux Police Department. However, their easy camaraderie is upset when their friendship veers from platonic to romantic. Add to the mix a serial killer with a taste for human flesh, and Dorian and Cash’s careful balancing act is thrown for a loop as both men struggle to decide if they should make a move and risk their current status quo or remain in the friend zone.
Leather and Lace presents two compelling main characters and fleshes out their relationship through well timed narrative flashbacks. Dorian and Cash are polar opposites, with Dorian coming from a past filled with betrayal and upheaval, and Cash from a nurturing family of female hunters. Dorian has flair and loves to wear makeup and crop tops, masking his deeper issues and severe anxiety. Cash maintains an easy going demeanor but is searching for someone who appreciates all of him, including his deep love of Stevie Nicks and karaoke.
At its heart, Leather and Lace is about the relationship between Cash and Dorian but it also has a gruesome serial killer plot and an intriguing urban fantasy world populated by humans and supernatural creatures like vampires, werewolves, and shifters of all types. This book will definitely appeal to fans of shows like Supernatural and urban fantasy book series like White Trash Warlock and the Mercy Thompson series.
Random things I loved in the series: Dorian’s emotional support Chihuahua (her name is Dominique and Dorian dresses her in very cute sweaters and sparkly collars), the way supernatural creatures have evolved (vampires eat food and go out in the sun), Cash is Mexican-American, southern setting, werebadgers, all the soft karaoke moments, Dorian looks like a waif but is fulling capable of holding his man down!, the slow dance, the fact that the author openly acknowledges that Dorian and Cash are inspired by Cas and Dean. I’m really looking forward to the next book!
