Book Review: Accidental Sire by Molly Harper


If you know anything about me you know I love a good Paranormal Romance. Vampires, Werewolves, Witches, Wizards and so on. I read pretty much anything you give me but I definitely have my favorites and Molly Harper has been on my radar for a few years. I discovered her through her Jane Jameson trilogy and I've stuck with her as much as I could.

I was so excited to get enough digital credits from Amazon to be able to buy Accidental Sire. I had read a lot of mixed reviews claiming it was just like all her other novels and I scoffed at that because Molly always gives me something new and interesting in Half-Moon Hollow and she didn't disappoint me with Accidental Sire. I hadn't read premise like this before and it was extremely interesting. Girl Meets Boy. Girl Likes Boy. Girl Gets Killed in an Extreme Frisbee Game. Girl Becomes a Vampire. Girl Bites Boy. You can see, it's definitely not he usual vampire fare. Also Meagan and Ben are NOT normal vampires.

I loved the heroine. Meagan was sarcastic and snarky just like I like and she didn't back down. I love a strong female lead. The boy on the other hand got on my nerves a bit. He just seemed whiny as hell in the beginning but I can live with that as long as my strong female lead takes control, which she did in a spectacular way. About midway through the book Ben has a change of heart and starts acting like a man so I'm happy with that.

There is some underlying mystery which also kept me intrigued, not everyone is as they seem so once the pieces of the puzzle start coming together it creates a very interesting picture.

I did enjoy where the book took me. It was pretty interesting the situation that Meagan finds herself in. I will say that the end was a little underwhelming for me, I guess I was expecting more retaliation. lol. But it's a great book and if you like a light vampire romance this then is for you. No brooding (except of the teenage) kind found anywhere.

I paid for this book with my own money. (Well, with digital rewards from Amazon) so this book is in no way sponsored. I pride myself on being honest with my reviews whether the book was given to me or not and in this case...I just wanted to share another Molly Harper novel!

A Book Review: Nice Girls Don't Date Dead Men by Molly Harper



I have been reading this very fun Vampire series from Molly Harper, Nice Girl's Don't Have Fangs, Nice Girl's Don't Date Dead Men, and Nice Girl's Don't Live Forever. I have completed the first book and midway through Dead Men. These are seriously some of the coolest books I've read in a while, mostly because of the humor and the lack of dark vampires roaming around all tortured.

What happens when you get shot in the middle of the night by a man who thinks you are a deer? Well if you are Jane Jameson then you were lucky enough to make drunken friends with a vampire who came along just in time to help you live. So now Jane is a vampire and she has to come out to her family, fight off some weirdo who keeps stalking her and figure out how to eat without grossing herself out. There are some fantastic one-liners and even better sex scenes (come on, if you read romance you KNOW you are after the good sex!) You can visit Molly's site here and you can read Molly's blog here.

I fully enjoyed this book and definitely hope you do too!

Review of All I Want for Christmas Is a Vampire (Love at Stake, Book 5)



I finished All I Want for Christmas Is a Vampire (Love at Stake, Book 5) by Kerrelyn Sparks on Sunday morning and wanted to get a review written up for you guys. If you haven't read any of Sparks's novels then go ahead and pick one up. This series is really very cute and not as dark as some Vampire series. I like a book with a lot of humor and this one definitely packs humor.

It starts out with Toni Davis meeting Scottish Vampire Ian MacPhie. Toni is a day guard for the Vampires. Meaning, that during the day when they are asleep she guards their passed out bodies from other humans who would do them harm. Ian, though, has a past, until a month ago he looked like a 15 year old boy, but due to some kind of potion he was able to age himself to look 27. Ian is on the hunt for the perfect Vampire woman when he meets Toni and they have an instant attraction to one another. Toni was attacked by "malcontents" (evil vampires) as was her room mate, however, Toni's room mate is now being held in an insane asylum.

Like I said the book has a lot of humor with Toni trying to prove the existence of Vampires to free her friend from the Asylum, (the Black Pages! Got to read them, it's very funny!) and then Ian's search for a woman goes global, enter every single woman trying to chase him down as he hot apparently.

The only problem I had with the book came when they rescued Toni's room mate. I didn't like her. In fact I found it hard to believe that the main character (Toni) would even be friends with someone as whiny and problematic as she was, she even made me regret the few chapters I read with her present. I saw her as more of a problem then a help to the story. I really liked the other Asylum rescue. I thought he was hysterical, it was a guy who was in the Asylum due to depression. Now if they could have given the room mate that guy's personality it would have been a hell of a lot better.

One other small problem I had is they mentioned Christmas like twice, so the story had very little to do with the title of the book, it was just a mismatch, the title had no relevance to the story. This is book 5 in the series and the series is as follows:

Love at Stake Series

Book One: How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire
Book Two: Vamps and the City
Book Two and a half: Novella "A Very Vampy Christmas" from Sugarplums and Scandal
Book Three: Be Still My Vampire Heart
Book Four: The Undead Next Door
Book Five: All I Want for Christmas is a Vampire
Book Six: Secret Life of a Vampire
Book Seven: Forbidden Nights with a Vampire

I've read a few of the series, one day I will sit down and read them all in a row (once I find them!) But I did read the first novel and it was a very good read!

I have started a new book by Lynsay Sands called Taming the Highland Bride which so far in looks like a story written from Taming of the Shrew. Anyway I will let you know how this goes.
