This prequel was written at about the same time as the 11th book in the series, so it really wasn't written for newbies, it was written for fans who wanted a back story. Not having read any of the other books, it just felt like an info-dump. And after all that, I'm still not really sure I understand the World of the Midnight Breed. I'm not sure I'll go any further with the series.

It's been over a year and a half since I've read a book from the Midnight Breed series. This sweet novella was a great way to refresh my memory and encourage me to continue on with the series. *looks at the pile of abandoned Lara Adrian books

The story was a quick tell, but that's how novellas usually go. Readers wanted to know how Savannah and Gideon met, and this book filled that empty space in the series.

Onwards and upwards with this series! These books aren't going to read themselves.

Interesting. I'm eager to read the first book of this series (again) and see if I still like it as much as I did before. I don't remember much, but this novella has certainly peaked my interest.

A TOUCH OF MIDNIGHT gives us the origin story of Gideon and Savannah, a couple I've always liked from the other books. It's also a simple intro into the world of the Breed, though I do feel like it's better if you've already read some of the series. I enjoyed seeing Gideon as a warrior "out in the field" and his care and affection for Savannah is obvious. A quick read with a fast paced romance and enjoyable characters.

For any Breed addict wanting Gideon and Savannah's story the wait is over. I would not want Savannah's gift of touching something and seeing its history. In this story she sees some absolutely horrible things.

Gideon's reason for contacting Savannah is a sword that changed his life and not for the good. She has now seen what he lived through. She will soon be living through her own horrors.

Hopefully Gideon will be able to save her.

10/20/22 Now that the series is complete it is time to binge listen. I have to admit I really enjoyed listening to the story. The narrator did a amazing job.

Awesome!

This was a great insight to Gideon & Savannah relationship. As always Adrian takes us on a great ride. They are one of my favorite couples.
