It’s 1962 and Mary Straughn finds that she has more than civil rights to fight for in the Windy City. There are vampires considering making her church members their banquet. When Mary comes face to face with Gideon Keel, she can’t believe the vampire has the nerve to walk into her church. Not all parishioners had a clue that they existed until he blatantly flashed his fangs during night service. Gideon soon discovers that Mary is more than just a beautiful, well-spoken woman. She fuels his lust like no human has done in decades and proves to be the second person in history to threaten his existence and emerge unscathed.

At The Advent Of Dusk is the prequel to The Master Chronicles series – a best-selling gay and bisexual (M/M) vampire series.

Jamie Craig delivers a fantastic tale in At the Advent of Dusk. The story was well balanced with the perfect blend of suspense, action and toe curling sex. Mary is strong in character and of mind. She is willing to do what is necessary to keep those she loves safe and out of harm’s way. Gideon has a will of steel, but found it bending to what would make Mary happy. I know some of his actions surprised not only Mary, but himself. Watching the two come to terms with a budding relationship was something to behold. Each knew that no matter how hard they tried to fight their attraction destiny would not be denied. This was my introduction to Jamie Craig and I’m elated with what I’ve discovered. I am looking forward to reading the sequel series to this incredible book.
