Dr. Gert Bower's day goes bad fast when she accidentally releases an abominable monster of the abyss on the streets of New York City. Desperate to stop it, she turns to the only person who can help her track the monster down. Vi De Luca is a private detective and creature of the night, a vampire more than willing to help Gert—for a price.
In exchange for catching the monster, Gert must spend one night with Vi, and let Vi have her way with Gert's blood and body. Though she does not remotely trust Vi, for the good of the city Gert agrees. Yet tracking the monster turns out to be more than either of them had bargained for. When Gert embarks on an experiment to try and reanimate a human corpse things just keep getting worse.

Business Makes Strange Bedfellows edition by EE Ottoman Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I delightedly reviewed a digital ARC provided via NETGALLEY for the purpose of this review. No fees were exchanged.
A delightful, antiquarian, occult, sexy LGBTQ tale sure to gratify readers who wish H. P. Lovecraft could have spent more time writing on the Queer slant of horror literaure. Seriously, E. E. Ottoman is a delight, and certainly knows zie way around the tentacular. So relax and ready yourself for a ride through Old New York, where Science unites with Necromancy, the City is overrun by.a rampaging Cthulhuian nightmare, and vampires pass through lust on the way to True Love.
This was a quick read that had a little bit of several things I enjoy in a book. The plot was fun and moved forward at a nice pace with the underlying attraction between the characters lending it just enough romance to keep a smile on my face. The plot itself was interesting and held itself well through the quick pace of the story. While I generally prefer longer reads, which is all that kept this story at 4 stars, this was definitely worth picking up.
Any mistakes in grammar, spelling and formatting were minor enough to be easily overlooked. I would definitely suggest this to anyone looking for something quick, funny, witty, full of action and laced with romance.
I was given this book in exchange for an honest review by Inked Rainbow Reads
I received a free copy via Inked Rainbow Reads in exchange for an honest review.
This is an intriguing and strange short tale. It's outside my usual preferred genre, but the premise interested me. I'm glad I picked it up.
From the description, I was expecting more humor. This was unexpectedly dark, and it was more serious than I anticipated. I found both Gert and Vi to be compelling characters, and their relationship certainly lived up to the title.
I thought it was very good. There were a number of surprises along the way. The only thing that was a bit lacking for me was that I thought the relationship itself needed a bit more depth. It was hard to understand why, outside of the physical, they were drawn to each other once the situation was resolved. The ending was a bit rushed as well. Despite that, it was still a decent story.
4.5 stars
I loved the world created here. It was like reading out of one of my favorite already-created worlds that I wrote fanfic in for years. I did struggle with the connection between these two at first, but at the same time I liked the slower build up to it. We never learn all of Vi’s secrets about who and what she is, which somewhat bothers me if only because I’m interested in this take on vampires.
With science, action and creatures, this short story certainly has it all; oh! And a love story to boot. I wished it had at least one or two more rounds of editing, but the typos weren’t overwhelmingly distracting, only on occasion. Gert certainly has a personality of her own, as does Vi.
There seems to be two competing plots going on in this short story, so it probably could have easily been expanded into a novel with more focus on each. However, for a short, this was well-written and the world definitely developed enough. I could certainly visualize where the characters were (the world and city) and mostly what each looked like.
For my first foray into E.E. Ottoman’s writing, I don’t think I could have chosen a better piece.

I've had this story for a while but when the author sent out a free copy as a Hallowe'en treat for people who get their newsletter, it reminded me I'd never gotten around to reading it.
I really liked this a lot! And wow, it totally wasn't what I would have expected, based on the word "business" in the title; I actually think that's what put me off reading it so long. But I had apparently forgotten what the blurb said This is no ordinary blah-type business we're talking here! )
This was partly an f/f rendering of Frankenstein, only it's kind of . . . Dr. Frankenstein meets cool vampire detective for scary adventures and hot sexytimes, and both are surprised when things take a turn into deeper feels.
The story was, by turns, grisly, erotic, disturbing, surprisingly thought provoking, and genuinely lovely. And the ending managed to take an act of blinkered ambition with predictably horrifying results, and turn it into a creepy-sweet HEA that tugged hard on my heartstrings. In the end, all I could feel was awwww!
I also can't stop picturing these characters as Edward Gorey illustrations. Particularly poor, dear little Matilda! 🖤🖤🖤
I love the queering of the Lovecraftian mythos. Nicely drawn characters that I would like to read more of their adventures.
Enjoyed this thoroughly, would love to read more about this couple and their mysteries.
