Series: Vicious Feast #1
Author: Kate Evangelista

Format: Ebook received for review
I’m Dakota Collins, a tough talking, eye patch wearing, workaholic photography student. Why am I important? Well, maybe because I get to spend an entire month with Vicious, only the sickest indie rock band out there.
You see, I needed a subject for my Spring Showcase introspective in order to graduate. During a chance encounter at a club I’d been sent to cover for the Daily Gossip, our ironically named college paper, the features writer I usually teamed up with introduced me to the band—by accident, I might add. It involved a run in with a scary, bald bodyguard. Anyway, long story short, I signed a contract to take pictures of Vicious.
I should have known their handsome yet way too serious for his own good bassist, Luka Visraya, wouldn't be able to keep his hands to himself. He’s gorgeous and all, but the way he smiles spelled trouble with a capital L. I’m in for a long month with him around.
Crazy shit happens and then some. So, if you want the skinny on Vicious and the events revolving around my stay at Lunar Manor, read my story.
This book – while I absolutely loved it – is a good reason to watch what you read (and I don't mean the books!). When I decided I wanted to review this book on tour, I looked at the blurb – that sounds awesome. Then I looked at the categories other people had put it in – New Adult, Paranormal, Romance, Vampires, Zombies. Those are just *wrong*. In this particular book there was no mention of Vampires or Zombies. And Paranormal? There was a hint of something at the very end, but even putting it in that genre would be a stretch. I think readers of Taste, also by Kate Evangelista are doing Savor a big disservice. I’m going to direct you to the author’s website if you want the breakdown of why Savor and Taste are different books, even though they have the same characters. You can see that post here: http://kateevangelistarandr.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-genesis-of-savor.html . I’ve never read Taste, so I’m not sure if that changed my experience of Savor or not.
