Seduce is the third book in the Vampire Erotic Theatre Romance Series by Felicity Heaton and having read all the books in this series so far this one is by far my favorite! The depth of the emotions that the characters express and the beautiful way the author has of describing the scenery had me lost in the pages into the wee hours of the morning.

I don't know where to begin to express how much I loved this book! Everything about it was perfection from the characters right down to the storyline. There is so much to say so let me first start off with the leads in the story Antoine and Sera.

As regular readers of the series will recognize Antoine is one of the owners of the theatre and brother to Snow (mmmm Snow I will get to him). A thousand year old vampire who keeps an emotional distant from others, except his brother, and leaves himself closed off from forming any attachments.

In Seduce I discovered the depth of his pain and the reason behind his coldness and I could not help to want to comfort him and make him mine. Although he presents a tough facade it is really an armor that he maintains in order to keep the ghosts that haunt him at bay. As the story progresses this beautiful man both inside and outside starts to allow that armor to crumble and readers are given the chance to see the true Antoine; a compassionate man who would sacrifice his own happiness for the ones he loves, capable of fierce devotion and a broken man who wishes to be able to find comfort, peace and happiness.

I have to say I love Sera! She is the type of heroine I truly enjoy reading about and love all the characteristics that the author gave her. Compassionate, tender, gentle, comforting, selfless, understanding, brave, courageous and most of all full of love to give to everyone around her. Sera has been watching Antoine for many weeks and deep down in her soul she knows Antoine is the vampire for her. Despite warnings from her sire that Antoine is not the type of vampire she should try to capture Sera can sense behind the strong, powerful, cold vampire a passion that is waiting to be unleashed and calls to her soul. She has never felt this way for anyone before and she cannot explain the magnetic draw to him.

The relationship that develops between the two of them touched my heart as Sera in her own way broke down Antoine's armor and showed him he is worthy of being loved. Now the sexy time between them was intensely hot, not only because of how talented Antoine was, but because of the deep emotional connection they had with each other, baring their heart and soul.

I have to say to all the Snow fans is you are going to LOVE this book! We get to see Snow quite a bit and hear him open up about himself; the depth of his bloodlust, the horror of it and how it has affected him. There were several scenes between Snow and Antoine that were so touching it made me cry at the depth of their brotherly love and devotion for each other. Another scene that was also very moving was with Snow and Sera together and her compassion in showing understanding and providing comfort and peace to both Snow and Antoine made me really love her.

I highly recommend this book to everyone because it will touch you and enthrall you on so many different levels that you will not want to the book to end. I can't wait to read the next book in the series, but most of all I would love to see more of Antoine and Sera and definitely Snow in his own book! After learning so much about him your heart will ache for him and wish for peace and happiness for him.

Seduce is the third book in the Vampirerotique series and whoa! It definitely packs a punch. Here we get a closer look at Antoine, who we all know is Snow’s brother, and Sera, a relatively new vampire who definitely has a thing for Antoine.

Here we get a closer look at Antoine, who we all know is Snow’s brother, and Sera, a relatively new vampire who definitely has a thing for Antoine.

“For the first time in three centuries, he needed to surrender a fraction of control so he could lose himself in this woman.”

Ok, I’m going to start with Antoine, because it is no secret how much I love my leading men. Antoine is very old, and he has the weight of the world on his shoulders. He’s tasked himself with “curing” snow, and is his watcher and protector. Seeing as Snow can fly out of control with no warning, this is quite a big task. Antoine has not left himself room in his life for anything but the theatre and Snow. I feel badly for this man who appears to be so cold and detached. But as they say, it only takes the love of a good woman to change a man forever. I think Antoine is one of my favorites out of this series, just because he has closed himself off to such a degree that when Sera comes along, he is helpless to fall for her. And who wouldn’t? The woman is superb.

And Sera… she auditions for a spot in the show just so she can get closer to Antoine. Her sire, Elizabeth, thinks it’s a foolish idea, but coaches her anyway. Sera is deliciously creative, both in her determination to get near Antoine, and after they pair up. I love this woman!!! She is fun and intelligent, and she does not give up – ever. Not on Antoine, not on others (who shall remain nameless to prevent spoilers). Her audition sparks something in Antoine that he never expected – desire. And let me tell you, that desire was white hot sexy. I love that Sera is strong and confident outwardly, even when she feels the opposite inwardly. I believe that is what true courage is. She sees what she wants, and she goes after it.

And a little bit about Snow… we all love him. I wear a bracelet I got from Felicity daily proclaiming I will happily be a donor for Snow. He does not disappoint in this story, and I love how we get to learn a little bit more about him little by little. There is so much more than meets the eye, this man has hidden depths we can’t even grasp yet. He was nearly a show stealer in this book, and my heart goes out to him multiple times. His book is coming up, so I am anxiously waiting for that.

My final thoughts on this story? It was excellent. The writing was terrific with a nice flow. It grabbed me right away and didn’t let go until the very end. I did feel a little bit rushed at the end with the appearance of another character. Their introduction was a bit glossed over. I wonder if this is because they will be featured later? I don’t know. But the book is hot. There are some kinky elements in this one that will set you on fire in all the good ways. Sera and Antoine are a couple that I’d love to read about even more in the future.

The Vampire Erotic Theatre series is both a tease and a treat, a voyeur's dream. With each successive story, Ms. Heaton gives us a little more in-depth look into the workings of and performances in the theater, and Seduce follows that tradition without shame, starting out the story with glimpses of a steamy orgy between Victor and some of the other performers.

Sera, a relatively young "turned" vampire, wants Antoine so badly she's willing to audition as a performer in his erotic theater. As one of the Aristocracy, an Elite like Sera is below his notice and his duties as theater manager keep him busy enough that having to personally facilitate her audition is a serious irritation. When Victor, the theater's star performer, shows up at her audition, Sera realizes what she's expected to do, in front of the man she's trying to impress, and a beautiful awkwardness ensues. A seductive striptease that steamrolls into a fiery, aching seduction, Seduce is hot, heavy, and enthralling within the first quarter of the novella. Ms. Heaton is a master of crafting alluring characters who are complicated and deep, and evoke powerful emotions with punch and passion... both as individuals and as a couple.

Antoine had quick appearances in the previous two stories (Covet and Crave) but his past hasn't been explored until now, and boy is it a beast. Living with such scars for so long has taken its toll and Ms. Heaton paints his struggle vividly and with heart-wrenching depth. Covet and Crave both hinted at dark secrets in Antoine's and Snow's past, but the depth of the suffering they've endured is far harsher than I'd expected, and really sets the bar high for future stories in this series. By the time we get to Snow's book, I think I'm going to be a nervous wreck!

The connection between Antoine and Sera is deep and strong, probably the most vibrant of any of the VET couples to date. I loved the vulnerability they exposed to each other and the sheer intensity of passion they brought out in one another. Moments, more like chapters, were so hot I had to stop reading in public (on my tablet, where the cover wasn't even visible!) for fear I was making revealing expressions and little noises. Embarrassing, right? But so true! And SO good!

One of my favorite parts about Seduce was getting to know Snow better. It will be a few books before we get to his story, and the new characters are great - unique and interesting - but he is going to need a really strong woman, and their story is bound to be a rollercoaster of a ride!

Plot & Characters:
A thought provoking, intense and erotic tale of seduction! Seduce lured me in and held my heart captive 'till the very end!

In this installment to Felicity Heaton's Vampire Erotic Theater Series we follow Antoine, part owner of Vampirerotique, and Sera, an Elite newly turned human, through a passionate story of seduction that consumed my every thought. Always known as cold and calculating, Antoine never saw himself falling for a female after suffering through the failure and pain of his last relationship. Sera knows what she wants and has Antoine in her sights no matter what it takes. One an Aristocrat of pure blood, the other an elite of the lower class, together a tale of forbidden love that unfolds within the famous Vampirerotique Theater where all the other characters of past and future installments can be found.

From the beginning each page is filled with profound emotions and revelations that will have you falling for not only Antoine but also his tormented brother, Snow. We're taken deeper into the brothers' relationship and their heart wrenching past while learning Sera's place and purpose in Antoine's life, if there is one at all. Both the opening and the closing of Seduce are of an equal all-consuming suspense. The author writes with focused attention and knows how to tale an exquisite erotic paranormal romance!

Writing:
Ms. Heaton has taken quite nicely to the spicier side of writing romance! She writes with a level of attention that pulls readers in while making the romance sizzle with passion and lust! As I've said in the past, Ms. Heaton is a natural!

Summary:
The first two books of this novella series gave readers a nice introduction to Antoine before we got to his book. I was uncertain as to what his story would be but couldn't wait to see what the author had in store for him. She didn't disappoint! Seduce is an all-consuming erotic romance that will pull at every single heart string you have!(less)

I have no clue how Felicity has managed to make me enjoy each book more than the previous, but she has.

Sera has been frequenting the theatre for months with her sire. She enjoys going immensely, but it is not to watch the acts on stage. She spends her time in the theatre watching one of its proprietors, Antoine. She is so attracted to him that she has decided to do anything to get past his icy unapproachable façade. Her sire has given her numerous warnings that no one gets close to Antoine, but it has only fueled her desires to get closer to him.

Antoine doesn’t let anyone get close to him. His has too many unhealed wounds from his past, a deep rooted fear for what the future holds for him, and a bloodlust crazed brother to deal with. The theatre is the only other thing he has made room for in his life. I knew he would have some darkness in his past, but I never imagined his life had been so tragic. This vamp deserved a happily ever after. He got quite the impressive lady too.

I absolutely loved Sera. She is one determined vamp. She wants Antoine. She sets out to seduce Antoine. She does not run when she learns all about him, she never even blinks. I like this type of character. Antoine has gotten used to the status quo of his life. He does not seem overly eager to change anything about it. Sera makes him want more than the little he has gotten used to. I found myself fist pumping and cheering for Sera and her determinedness.

For Snow fans like myself, readers learn much of the reason for why he is the way he is. I’m sure there is much more to learn about him though. It’s all very tragic and will leave you craving his story even more than you already were.

A couple of new male vamps were introduced. Callum and Javier’s brothers will be brought into the theatre’s inner workings. Readers are given just enough details about them that they are left impatiently waiting for the next book. One of the brothers seems to have some nature of secrets in his past. He also seems dark and broody. I can’t wait to read more of this very sexy vampire series!

Vampire Sera isn't a real fan of accompanying her maker to the Vampirerotique theatre for the racy entertainment, she's there for one reason and one reason only, the dark and mysterious Antoine, one of the theatre's proprietors. Sera yearns to have a chance at seducing Antoine and is determined to get his attention at any cost. Her sire's warnings just make her desire for him that more intense. Seducing the centuries old, tortured vampire will not be easy be an easy task for Sera, but stealing his heart is where the true challenge lies.

At first glance Antoine appears to be solely focused on work and have no intentions to pursue love. As Sera slowly works her magic, we learn he isn't incapable of emotion but suppresses that part of him due to a heartbreak that has left him scarred. When those walls finally come down, Antoine reveals how how big of a heart he really has. His relationship with his brother Snow is quite touching and also shows a softer side to this dark and passionate vampire. Antoine is at his most vulnerable when he loves and when he loves it's fiercely and completely, Sera is one lucky woman! Watching him open up to her melted my heart.

Sera is a protagonist to admire. Sure she's not some kick ass warrior, but she's a fighter in her own right, she puts it all on the line for love and doesn't take no for an answer. Her character was a delightful surprise. We usually meet strong leading ladies who are feisty but rarely make the first move when it comes to romance. Sera's confidence and compassion are her best assets, it's a treat to watch her play the game of seduction with Antoine throughout the book.

Seduce is the third installment in the Vampire Erotic Theatre series and Ms. Heaton has outdone herself. She flawlessly creates a world of dark and erotic characters that tug at your heartstrings and make your pulse race! Sera and Antoine scorch up the pages and the Felicity Heaton's intricate attention to detail allows the reader to play a voyeuristic role while reading their seductive encounters. The transformation of the hero from icy to passionate and our heroine's determination and unconditional patience for her lover really gives us the best of both worlds, unbridled passion and romance. You'll instantly be swept away into this erotic and sensual world of vampires and crave for more!

Bloodlust runs in his veins, a dark master waiting for the day it will reign over him. Now a woman with a pure soul and wicked intentions has him in her sights and is determined to crack the ice around his heart.

Antoine, one of the owners of Vampirerotique, has kept himself walled off from all emotion since his blood addiction has been threatening to take over. With a dark past that haunts him every day, the only one he cares about anymore is his brother, Snow. That is until Sera comes into the theater one night with her Sire to audition for a job. Sera has no idea that awakening feelings in Antoine that had long been buried could be her downfall. Will she risk it all for the unattainable Antoine? Will she even want to when she finds out about his dark addiction?

Sera certainly has a "get him at all costs" attitude. She's been admiring Antoine from afar at the theater but now has come up with the "brilliant" plan to audition for a part in order to get some alone time with him. Things don't go down quite like she was hoping but obviously we wouldn't have a story if she didn't get somewhere *wink, wink*. Antoine was certainly a tough man to crack, but after getting to know him and his brother Snow, you can certainly tell why. Especially with a past relationship that he has been dwelling over for many years. Their story managed to build it's way up even for a shorter book and didn't feel rushed.

I have to say that I am really anticipating Snow's book now! We found out just enough about him to be very intrigued while still leaving him a huge mysterious, tortured character. I can't wait for him to get his happily-ever-after. Obviously I'm not alone since Ms. Heaton is holding out on his story, saving the best for last I'm hoping. This was certainly a fast, sexy read!

Sera has her sight and fangs set on Antoine. She is determined to not only seduce him but melt the ice surrounding his heart. She believes she can do this but must first get the chance to speak to him, alone. She has a plan and is determined to succeed. But will she?

From the synopsis, we learn that blood lust is an issue with Antoine. Up until this point, all we’ve seen of Antoine has been his distant, “all business”, hard ball self. We finally get to know why he’s the way he is and of course, we get more Snow as they are brothers!! Loved that bonus!! Okay, back to Antoine and Sera.

I will admit, I didn’t particular like how Antoine’s and Sera’s story began, but as it progressed it got significantly better and I fell in love with it. It seemed to be just all about the physical aspect (I’m sure you’re thinking “Uhm, Viviana, this is an erotica novel. OF COURSE it’s going to be about the physical!”). Allow me to explain and try not to spoil it for those who have yet read it. I like the tension an author creates between the hero and the heroine and then that moment when they decide to just go for it. The way it happened here, the focus was more on the physical desire vs. the tension. Then again, that could be attributed to Antoine’s blood lust (and this point comes to me as I’m writing this). Regardless, that physical desire part was hot as hell!! When he …… and then he pounces…… oh and then when he….
Sorry, I had to do that to you!! I know, ‘bad Viviana’!

At the beginning, I didn’t like Sera very much. I like that she’s strong and confident in that she will be successful and seduce him and even make him hers. But where does that strength and confidence come from? Also, one minute she’s all “I’m sooo going to have him” and then next she was “I don’t know if I can do this”. But again, as the story progressed, I liked her more and more.

The pace of the book was great. Similar to the previous books, the length is more like a novella but you’re not cheated at all. You’ll get a great story, great characters that you will continue to see and get to know. As well as getting to meet a few new ones.

Oh Antoine, what a prize! We've seen Antoine around in book 1 and 2 and I have to say I never ever thought someone could break through his icy layer. But lucky for us Sera was up for the challange. After seeing Antoine at Vampirerotique she has lusted after him. Lucky for her, her sire has an in at the theater and gets Sera an audition in hopes of seducing Antoine. And wow wow wow did she give the performance of her life!

This story was smoking hot! One of the hottest. But there was a lot going o...more

Sera had her eyes set on Antoine from the moment she saw him. Despite being warned off the emotionally aloof vampire, she just couldn't let go of the possibilities and feelings she had for him. So what's a girl to do? Well, seduce him of course, but to do that she has to find a way to get him alone and have his attention focused on her.

Antoine has burned before. He holds himself apart from everyone except his brother, Snow and the few people he considers good friends. Yet while watching Sera perform, and knowing her game, fight as he may he begins to succumb to the feelings she is awakening not only in his body, but in his heart as well.

Welcome back to Book Three in the “Vampire Erotic Theatre” series, where you can't get enough of the sexy owners or the ladies who get under their skin.

I loved Sera. She was determined, yet sweet . She knew what she wanted and wasn't afraid to go after it, even though she might get hurt laying herself out there. I respect that in a character and a person. It made her more real in my eyes.

I had no idea there were secrets to Antoine. I always wondered what his story would be, but had no idea what to expect. After all, he is completely gorgeous and fierce. He always held a bit back, but was strong when he needed to be in the previous stories. This book lays it out and soon you will see the other side of him.

The passion is so flaming hot, you will sizzle as each page is turned. Be it rough and wild or tender and sensual, you feel that passion as it builds between them down to your core. You start rooting for more, rooting for Sera and Antoine ,because they steal your heart.

Once again Heaton doesn't fail to make you love “Vampirerotique”. Not only that, but Heaton makes you fall in love with all her characters, main or secondary. Did I mention I love how Snow was present quite a bit in “Seduce”, but still Felicity is only building the fire, teasing us until she is ready to set us ablaze with anticipation for his story. I, for one, am Seduced by this series and eager for more.(less)

BLOODLUST

This third one, while it was good, I wouldn't say it is as good as the first two so far. It focuses on the stubborn and hot headed Antoine, and it is interesting to see how a women finally gets under his skin. :)

Enter Sera, she has had her eye on Antoine for some time now, and while she has been told to keep her distance from the standoff and very complicated male, she is very determined and seizes her chance to seduce Antoine while "auditioning" to be an actor at the theatre.

Besides hi...more

WOW! I'am feeling a little hot after reading this one! Antoine isn't who he seems to be, he is closed off from the world and people think he is just a typical aristocrat (Full blooded vampire, for who haven't read the previous books) but deep down he is troubled and restless and guess what? Sera is just the girl to change that!

This is the third book in Felicity Heaton’s Vampire Erotic Theatre Romance Series. Felicity Heaton has written a fantastic steamy book. That captures you from the beginni...more

Great installment for the VET series!

Seduce is the most important book for the Vampire Erotic Theatre series so far. It introduces a world in wich pur blood vampires are the ones to suffer the most, tormented and cursed by their condition. That is imperative for understanding the Vampirotique's oldest owners, Antoine and Snow.

One of the sexiest scenes is Sera's seduction, when she's surprised by the kind of audition she has to perform. We have glimpses of Antoine in previous books but we didn't...more

Definitely a 3.5
Antoine has never missed any of the performances in his Erotic Theatre. Scrutinising each performance but never showing any sexual reaction to it made others think he was made of ice. Almost 1000 years younger than him is Sera who has been watching Antoine from afar. She's never wanted anyone like she has wanted him and will do anything to get him to notice her, even if it means auditioning for a part in Vampirerotique.

This is the 3rd novella in the Vampire Erotic Theatre Romanc...more

Another must read from Felicity! This series is getting hotter by the book and I can't wait for the next installment.

Antoine is the vampire part owner of Vampireerotique who appears to be cold and detached from life. Sera is a new vampire who has fallen from him from afar and is determined to make him notice her.

He is an aristocrat vampire and she is an elite and she is warned by her sire Elizabeth not to get involved with him as he is beyond attainable. But Sera has been wanting him for a year...more
