The Incubus’s First Real Meal
(Craving More, Book 1)
by Riley Rivers
An incubus who’d rather die than feed…
and a witch determined to save him.
Ryan has never enjoyed being an incubus. He hates the hunger that constantly plagues him and hates the need to feed off the sexual desire of others. But most of all he hates the power of his aura and how it removes the inhibitions of other people. Ryan is not about to push himself on a person magically forced into being willing. Instead, he spends his weekends at various clubs, gleaning what he can off the energy in the air. And the handsome, all-too-tempting new bouncer at one of his regular haunts? Ryan can deal. He’s gotten good at denying himself.
Chris is a tattoo artist by trade and a bouncer as a favor to a friend. He also happens to be a witch with a talent for reading auras that is second to none, and he’s been paying attention to frequent club-goer Ryan for a while. Sure Ryan’s gorgeous and totally his type, but beneath that glossy exterior Chris can tell he’s in pain – and his aura is so weak it’s scary. When he steps in to stop Ryan from getting unwanted attention from a handsy club patron, he realizes Ryan is an incubus… and that he’s starving himself to death.
Ryan needs to feed before it’s too late, but can Chris convince him it’s not just about sex? Will Ryan ever believe that someone might want him of their own free will?

A really endearing story!
I love the easy flow of Riley’s writing and Ryan and Chris are just wonderful to read.
I loved Ryan! I haven’t read about an incubus before but I loved Riley’s take on the creature. Ryan is shy, lonely, and has a lot of self-loathing due to being an incubus. He mistaken knowledge of how his powers work has haunted him his whole life until he meets Chris. I thought Chris was a great, well-rounded character. Endearing, caring but not overbearing. He sparks up a friendship with Ryan, even though they both want more.
As there friendship grows, so does their feelings. I liked that this story wasn’t about fated mates but friendship to feelings type of story. The story ends with a happy for now ending that I hope there will be more of in the coming books. Ryan and Chris’s interactions were hot and I really enjoyed Ryan coming out of his shell once they admitted their feelings for each other!
This is a great, light, story that you can easily devour in one sitting!
