Blurb:There’s a smokin’ hot dead guy locked in my garden shed.That part’s bad enough. But now, he’s trying to get out.
Growing up, my father always told me that I’d come to a bad end, just like my mom did when I was a kid. Hearing that kind of shit when you’re little eventually gets to a girl, but I can’t say I ever expected my ‘bad end’ to involve an angry vampire with a severe case of iron deficiency and a panty-melting English accent.
Maybe I shouldn’t be surprised. Ever since my mother was assassinated, I’ve felt like there was something vast and frightening hidden beneath the fabric of the world. Something none of us are supposed to know about.
So far, finding out I was right hasn’t been nearly as satisfying as I’d hoped. I guess the trick will be staying alive long enough to shout ‘I told you so’ from the rooftops.
But before I can do that, I really need to figure out if the vampire who just bit me is one of the good guys or not.
This book was not good. It was mediocre if I’m being generous. First off, it was a cliffhanger, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing but there was no closure of the current plot and no loose ends were tied up. This leads me to believe one of two things…. The author doesn’t know what’s going to happen next in which case, that’s fine as long as we have SOME kind of closure in the current book, but we don’t.
OR…. the author was intentionally doing it so people would buy the next book, in which case that is also fine if there is SOME kind of closure in the current book.
And the sex! Ug, it was mechanical and not romantic in the least. There was no reasoning given as to why all of the sudden they were into each other, aside from the fact that it was a compulsion for her. A one sentence explanation doesn’t do it folks, I need more and maybe a reaction from them after it happened. Like, where did that come from? How do we feel about what we have just done? Did we like it? Are we ready to keep doing it? Instead of “OK, yeah, moving on.” It just didn’t make sense.
Won’t be reading any more of this series.
