Vincent Barnes has suffered four years as a vampire, and they've been the most miserable years of his pathetic life. Too poor for black market blood, he feeds from sleeping humans to survive. He tries to never intrude on the same prey twice, but after a single delicious taste of a long-lost childhood neighbor, he can't help returning for seconds. Wesley Garcia has been waking up with fang marks. Lucky for him, he needs a vampire-to use as bait. He's certain Vitalis-Barron Pharmaceutical killed his mother, but to gain access to their covert research labs, he has to bring them a bloodsucker for their experiments. Step one, a dramatic offer: Stay, and you can bite me. Vincent leaps at the chance to gobble Wesley up. Wes's plan is perfect. He'll befriend the vampire, then trick him into coming to the lab. No fighting, no fuss. But Vincent is more than Wesley has bargained for: sweet and shy, with intoxicating fangs that awaken new desires in Wes. As the two bond, Vincent believes he might have finally found someone worth putting his trust in... and Wes fears neither of them will survive the betrayal he has planned. Contains mature themes.

This read like YA but they were involved in some very extreme stuff.
It didn't seem very plausible that they'd get into Vitalis Barron.
Vinny was also very forgiving. I mean, I get why Wesley thought he had to do what he did. But he didn't really apologize.
That said. Would I forgive someone for potentially almost getting me killed /experimented on by the bad guys if he gave me a house? In this real estate market? Sigh. Probably. MOST probably.
But do I understand why Vinny forgave him? No. I know Wesley was remorseful. We got to see that from his POV way before Vinny even found out. But Vinny didn't know this.
So he just forgave him because ~
I read this expecting a fun & silly urban fantasy romance, only for it to emotionally wreck me. It was such a heartbreaking and accurate portrayal of grief and depression and the mortifying reality that in order to be loved, you must be known, in all your screwed up glory.
I don't care what I deserve, I want you.
