review 1: I'd never read a book before where males could get pregnant. So I was curious as to how this author would tackle that issue. Well I was disappointed in the story. First off Zack meets Eljin and within 2 days they are declaring their love for each other. Zack is a straight man who's never fathom being with another man and yet in two days he's found his soul mate who is pregnant with his child.So much more could have been done with the story. It would have been nice if Zach and Eljin had more time to get to know each other. I mean, who has the time to jack each other off when you are being chased by bad guys? The final slap in the face was the author doesn't even let us get to witness a male birth. So now I'm left to wonder if Eljin will give birth through his mouth or his ... moreass!!
review 2: Ex-Marine Zack, who has been discharged from the military due to head trauma, rescues twink Eljiin from some bad guys behind a bar. Pursuit follows and we find out that the baddies have been sent not only to hurt the pregnant(!) elf Eljiin but to kill Zack, the unknowing father, as well. As they try to make their way back to Ejiins world, on the other side of the veil, Zack battles with this newfound knowledge. I have several issues with this book. Zack does a 180 from "I'm not gay, you can't be pregnant and elves doesn't exist" to full acceptance within a few pages. I wish the author could have included a little more angst to make the story more interesting. Eljiin the elf was portrayed in such a way that he could easily have been replaced by a woman. Small, slender, pregnant and hormonal. Only the sex scenes, which Zack seemed to accept with remarkable ease, made this book into a m/m read albeit of a somewhat Harlequin quality.The book is the first in a series, "Dark Court". This story ends with several unresolved issues and unanswered questions I'm sure will be dealt with in the rest of the series. If you are willing to read on...2* less
