Lorehaven Bound: A Hunger Pangs Short
A train ride through the Nevrondian countryside should be a calming proposition, but for Ursula, it isn't. Her thoughts swirl, fixated on one thing... make that two things. Specifically Nathan Northland and Vlad Blutstein. It's not just because they are both breath-stealingly attractive—although to be fair, that doesn't hurt. It's because they surprised her, and Ursula is very rarely surprised.
Even more confounding is her reaction to them, particularly the vampire, Vlad. Just what is she supposed to do about these... feelings?
All Ursula knows is that she doesn't have time for emotions right now. Not when the fate of the world is at stake. She can deal with this later. First, she's got to figure out what story she's going to tell the sure-to-be-furious Alfbern. Then, she needs catch up on all the sleep she missed before hitting the road again. Surely, she can do those things while being Lorehaven Bound.

This story is a 10,000-word character study/missing moment that takes place immediately after Hunger True Love Bites. You will want to read that first if you don't want to be spoiled for the events in that book!

I'd never purchased something so fast...
I sure was not expecting to have this drop, but still what a wonderful surprise it was to have a little peek into what's in store for the sequel.
Ursula as always is a delightful read, bringing with her a sort of chaos only one of the [ ] can! And as someone who personally is enamored with world building and lore, this short is chock full of answers and even more questions as to the nature of this world.
Truly, I have devoured this book and can say for certain that if you enjoyed True Love Bites, then you will definitely enjoy this short interquel. Thank you Joy! :)

A wonderful unexpected gift
This short was simply marvelous. Picking up right where book one left off, it's simply a delight, giving us more of characters we all fell in love with already. While I devoured this in about a half hour, the tidbits of character development and lore will surely tide me over until the next major installment in the series!

Fantastic and fantastical
I had SO much fun reading Hunger Pangs and I absolutely adore all the characters. To have this surprise short story about Ursula drop on Halloween was a fantastic way to start the day.
If you haven't read the book, this won't make a lot of sense to you, so GO READ HUNGER PANGS and then come back. You'll be glad you did, I promise.
