She was promised to his brother for a thousand years…now he fears he’ll never deserve her…
Lila, a high born aristocrat of the Vampyre kingdom, was betrothed to Sathan, King of the Vampyres, for a thousand years. Although she cared for Sathan and loved him as her king, secretly her heart yearned for his brother. When Sathan falls for another, Lila ends the betrothal, terrified at what her life will become now that she won't be queen.
Latimus has loved Lila since they played on the grassy riverbank as children. Knowing his brother was the better man, he never begrudged his betrothal to the woman he secretly loved. Now that Sathan has married another, Latimus becomes aware of Lila's feelings. Believing his war-ravaged soul will never deserve her, he vows to push her toward a worthier man.
As the war against the Deamons rages, Latimus fights the Dark Lord Crimeous. When Lila suffers a brutal attack, Latimus is shaken to his core. Resolved to avenge her, he acknowledges the emotion that has always burned for her in his blackened heart. But Lila has moved on, and as the war ensues, he worries it might be too late to claim her...

What?
The Elusive Sun was a book filled with spice but that was basically it. There is very little actually content and the majority of the book is just dialogue between a couple characters. There’s next to no world building and very few characters, with only 2 that actually have any character growth. I found this book to be very drawn out and boring.
Reading this book would be much better than listening to it. The audio version is good when it comes to the narration/descriptions but the dialog portions, which make up the majority of the book, sound very robotic. I do not recommend this book or this series, despite really trying to give it a decent chance to win my favor.
It is very rare I don’t complete reading a series I start but this is one I will not continue.
