I enjoyed reading these books. I liked the characters & how the action built a little more with each book. I'm looking forward to reading bloodlines.

Since I love vampires and vampire stories I thought I would give this book a try. I love reading new to me authors and finding new books and authors to love so I'm really glad to have read this because I know I'll be reading more from this author in the future.

Jason Sullivan loves a good challenge and after meeting Taylor, he's in full challenge mode since he asked her out and she turns him down.

Taylor Grant tries to keep Jason away and even warned him she's sworn off men and sex but it doesn't stop him from pursuing her. She finally breaks down and gives in to a date. They see each other a couple of times and then he brings her home to meet his family, that's when the real fun begins.

The emails they send back and forth to each other were fun, playful and made me laugh. You could really see the chemistry between these two and I knew they were made for each other even if they didn't...yet.

Jason is different, he's a vampire. But the real fun is Jason's family. They are so much fun and I could see myself being comfortable around them as long as they've been fed before I get there. But Jason loves animals and it seems so does his 'family'. I really like it when a story has some kind of animal element to it and this one has more than one and it was too darn cute how the household ends up with not one but several different animals.

Everything is going great and then something really bad happens and that starts a whole new darker feel to this story. Things happen and feelings are hurt and even I got emotional reading it but in the end we get to find out if a human female will willingly change her entire life to be the vampire of her dreams.

I am a sucker for vampire stories and I finished this one pretty much in one sitting. It flows rather nicely, has enough action, humor, and spunk to keep me interested. It even touches briefly on some morality issues, which I did not expect from a vampire romance book but nevertheless I appreciate.
I liked the way Aiden's character evolved from a strutting, impossibly sexy vampire killer to a man who actually becomes caring and loving. But I guess that is the point of all romance books; the change that love brings. Interesting background stories on part of both Aidan and Sam. There is a hint of good stories behind secondary characters and I will search for more books by Ms. Wilson in hope to learn more about them.
Last but not least, I like good eroticism in books I read and this one did not dissapoint!

I really enjoyed reading this book. I actually stumbled upon it accidentally whilst searching for another book, (this was one of the recommendations) and i decided to give it a try. I love how its a vampire/human story in a completely new and fresh way. I was hooked from the start and am slowly working my way though the series. There was just a few parts that seemed to far fetched or unbelievable to me which is why i didn't give the full five stars. But definitely a good read.

I really enjoyed the second book.  Seeing how they become a family and
how being a Vampire can be just a dangerous as being a human being.

Loved the new characters too!

I purchased this bundle when I first got my Kindle thinking it sounded interesting and the price was reasonable for the number of books.  I am a paranormal romance fan, and had never read anything Harlequin or by Kimberly Raye before.  I am so glad I got this bundle.  These stories are addictively good.  Definitely a guilty pleasure.  The vampires in these stories feed on sexual energy as well as blood, so expect quite a bit of heat but nothing too extreme.  While these are light reads, the characters that Ms. Raye creates pull you into their stories and keep you there waiting with baited breath to see if they get their happy ending.  The plotlines are interesting and have enough twists to keep you reading as well.  Since they are romance stories you know the happily ever after is coming, but you still get anxious at times to make sure it does come.  There is quite a bit of humor in these stories too.

While some of the stories are better than others as is often the case with bundles, everyone will have a different favorite (mine was Dead Sexy).  I find that favorites in these depend on which character you like the most.  Still, they are all entertaining and easy, perfect escapism when you want to stay away from the serious, heavy, dramatic reading.  Don't expect these to be JR Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood or Christine Feehan's Carpathians, or any other of the more serious paranormal romance series.  Don't pick these up expecting Bram Stoker's Dracula either.  This is Harlequin Blaze, and they are known for light and sexy reads.  I give the bundle a 5 star rating because I think that Love at First Bite is a very good series in the light paranormal romance category and at a good price.  If you like Harlequin romance, give this a try.  If you are looking for a beach read or something to read between heavier reads, you may want to take a look at these as well.

The bottom line: Kimberly Raye managed to make vampire cowboys who are not too cheesy.  They are actually pretty hot and they steal your heart.

This bundle includes 4 titles: Dead Sexy, Drop Dead Gorgeous, and A Body to Die For, and Once Upon a Bite (the last one is a novella).

Other vampire cowboy titles by Raye: Cody, The Braddock Boys: Brent

One of the things in life that make me happiest is finding a new book series to read. Vampire Academy is one of those series. I was unsure how I would feel about it when I began reading it. Lissa Dragomir is a vampire princess. Surprisingly, she is also mortal. She is protected by her best friend Rose Hathaway. Rose Hathaway is half human and half vampire. Originally, the two young women escaped from St. Vladimir's Academy due to an unknown threat to Lissa. However, they are captured and forced to return to the Academy. One of their captors is the sexy Dimitri. Rose is drawn to Dimitri and he is also attracted to her. St. Vladimir's is where the friends will once again encounter friends, romance, catfights, and danger. They will have to unite to preserver over danger and to have their heart's desires.
Vampire Academy grabbed my attention from the first page and captivated me until I closed the book for the last time. Rose is a strong and sassy heroine. She is willing to sacrifice what she wants for Lissa's safety. Richelle Mead has crafted a complex vampire world that I enjoyed learning about. Dimitri sounded very delicious and had very good chemistry with Rose. There is also mystery in this book and I was eager to find out who the culprit was. When the culprit was revealed, I was very surprised. I could envision the Academy while reading as the world-building was superb. Rose and Lissa's friendship seemed realistic. They did get into disagreements but always wanted the other one to be happy and safe. I enjoyed the supernatural setting combined with the usual teen normalcy and drama. The dialogue really matched how the characters were portrayed. I could see Rose conversing and being sarcastic while I was reading. One of my favorite things about this series is the characters were aware that they were vampires. However, they still discovered unexpected powers. There is one very sexy scene in this book that will leave readers swooning and wanting more. The ending alludes to the next installment, but does not end on a crucial moment. Rose acknowledges her looks which is unusual to see in young adult book series. I found it made the book more believable. The two main characters have a desire to be better, which a feeling many of us can relate to. However, they never dwell on their problems; they attempt to solve them. Overall, if this series continue on this excellent path it will be one of my favorite series. I would recommend Vampire Academy to readers who enjoy paranormal romance

I very enjoy all the books in this series. I have D.B.Reynolds  on auto buy and look forward to reading more from this author.
If you like the vampire genre,these are the classic type vampires. They have to drink blood and they don't sparkle in the sunlight.
 I highly recommend. Raphael is the first in this series.

I really do like this series a lot and wish that there were more of them. Of course, I like all of the Thurlo books and this series is one of my favorites. It is so very different and intriguing to me. The main character is a bit of a challenge to me and most likely to the authors as well. You don't usually get to read about a police officer who is half vampire and has to keep blood in his refrigerator for snacks. He also has to smear himself heavily with sunscreen when he goes out in the day time. All of this makes for most interesting reading. I did read the first in the series and could not wait for more. If you enjoy the western motif and the vampire stuff added in, then you would like this book, I believe. It is a very readable and good book.

I really liked these books - I like them that much that I have just ordered the All in series.

The story lines in these books are really good - whilst they are predictable (I don't know many romance books a that aren't and to be honest any that don't have a HEA aren't a good romance but that's my opinion) they are really well written and I like that the characters appear in the series. These are the kind of romance series I like to read.

I enjoyed this book because it isn't the usual man slut bad boy book - I like the role of Sadies dad and the realistic responses instead of fighting and then jumping back into bed with each other. It was well written and overall a good read. I look forward to more from this author

First I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Vampires are an exhausted area for fantasy writers but Ms. Neill still managed to build a fresh and interesting story out of the over-exposed supernatural entities. Perhaps it was the dynamic of Merit and her new master, Ethan Sullivan that I find interesting, or maybe it's the fact that she is strong enough as a new vampire to be named Sentinel for her particular house. Either way, I thought the story and cast of characters were both interesting enough to get me to buy the next two books in the series. Ms. Neill's writing has an easy readability to it and her books will make fabulous Spring time reads for me. I am definitely looking forward to more.

I have read all of the books in this series and really enjoy reading about the Carpathian people and how they find their lifemates.  I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoy sexy vampire books.

I loved the whole series, while I usually like vempire movies I going into this series I want sure it won't be some cheesy attempt to turn erotic into fantasy.
But this turned out to be a great read, two is a very likeable character with an interesting story that provides a twist into the idea if a "vampire world".
The series is well written, and entertaining.

Its no secret that Im a huge fan of Molly Harpers writing style. The humor and sarcasm is right on par with mine and her characters are so easy to like. THE CARE AND FEEDING OF STRAY VAMPIRES is no exception to that, even if I have been reading this series out of order. While there was nothing extra special about this book compared to Harpers other ones, I really enjoyed reading this one is particular. Probably because her characters felt authentic and the interactions between them were so amusing.

In my opinion, Iris and Cal are a great addition to the cast of Half-Moon Hollow, the little Kentucky town were many of Harpers books are based. For such a small town, it has a tendency to attract a lot of supernatural events. In this case, Cal is drawn to the town because of the uncharacteristically harsh vampire killing happening all over the country. Apparently some vampires are being poisoned by drinking bad batches of synthetic blood, which is making them go more or less crazy and kill whoevers near them. And Half-Moon Hollow is the place to investigate because its the location of the first dramatic kill. Cal is hired to investigate whats going on and he unwittingly becomes a target for poisoning himself. He ends up getting really sick and passing out on his kitchen floor after drinking blood from a town welcoming basket. Iris, the main character of the story, literally stumbles upon him as shes dropping off a client contract for Cal to sign. As a personal errand girl for vampires and vampire needs, she usually does a lot of things for her clients but cleaning them up and caring for them (especially feeding them straight from the source) is not in her job description.

It goes against Iriss southern upbringing to simply leave this vampire out in the sun and when he asks her to help him by lodging him in her house, she cant refuse. The huge amount of money he offers kind of seals the deal Laying low in her house and hiding from the vampire community while he recuperates is his goal but as he gets better, the investigation into the killings and his poisoning becomes a priority. When you have a very good looking vampire and a young woman living together, you can expect sparks to fly, especially when you're reading a paranormal romance. Cal and Iris have a lot of chemistry and although their relationship is an odd one, its really fun to read the scenes with their hilarious banter. The sex scenes are just an added bonus.

Personally, I think what makes this book different from the authors other books is the relationship between Iris and her younger sister Gigi. Orphaned as a teen, Gigi had to turn to her older sister for guidance and parenting. While their relationship isn't a typical one, I think even if Iris plays the role of single parent, they're sisters first and their relationship is one that anybody would wish to have with a sibling.

Southern charm, hilarious moments, and great characters are what Ive come to expect from Molly Harper and she really delivers with this book. If you're in the mood for a good laugh and a straight forward story, this is one to pick up. One of my guilty pleasures is a good chick-lit book and Harper has a knack for adding paranormal elements to chick-lit stories. As the first of a spin-off series, this is definitely a book you can dive into if you haven't read any of Harpers other books.

Very interesting read with darker elements. I loved the fact that it bought back classic vampire themes and the characters where very enjoyable. Alex was by far my favorite. This was very enjoyable a must for paranormal vampire fans. Especially fans who love classics and miss the style of them. Because this that style. This is a series, and I look forward to reading book 2 to see where this goes from here.
