How to Date a Vampire

This is a 3.5 star read. Rylie Cruz is a great character and I love her to death but she can be so out there sometimes. With that said, I do like the story here. It’s a fun quick run through the streets of New Orleans as Rylie faces yet another obstacle in her quest to finally get close to Jack.

When last we saw Rylie she was getting ready to rush to her parents house along with Jack. Well apparently when they arrive they end up in a fight with the vampires who have come looking for her Uncle Ernie. During the fight Jack is bitten and while Rylie hopes for the best, based on movie transformations, she knows that she may now be dating a vampire. Things only take a turn for the worse, as if things could get any worse, when the vampires comes and want to take Jack away for an unknown reason.

Also getting in on the action are Rylie’s best friend and roommate Jennifer Matthews, who is human along with Lily the crazy client and werewolf who will not go away. With various vampires who all seem to have varying agendas, Rylie has no idea who to turn to for help.

If you are in the mood for a light read with characters that are appealing and fun, then this is for you. I found myself actually laughing out loud at times and that means it definitely has merit.

Be aware however that it does contain some spelling errors, extra words, and missing words throughout. I know that can bother some, but does not detract from the story itself.

Forget Me Not and Testing Fate

Forget Me Not by Belinda Boring                     Forget Me Not (Mystic Wolves, #2)
by Belinda Boring

I really like this series, I started reading and could not put it down. This has everything you could want in a story. Our hero’s are heroic and will not be pushed around or aside, the villain’s are crazy or just plain nasty and treacherous.

Just as Darcy and Mason think they can get back their life and plans a threat from Mason’s past shows up to make trouble. They have survived the murder of Mason’s sister and an attempted hostile take-over but what comes running through their door could be more than even they can handle. Amber, a past romance that Mason does not want to remember shows up and announces that she is the true mate of the Alpha making for a very awkward situation. The mating ritual is three weeks away and now they must deal with a situation which could become very dangerous for all involved.

This installment gives us a look at who Mason was before he became the Alpha of the Mystic Wolves and what he endured to get where he is. It also has an unrepentant woman, power struggles, attempted murder, manipulation, and black magic. There are also witches and vampires among other supernatural creatures. Give this series a chance and it will grow on you.

Another great entry that had me reading all night. Maybe it’s just me, but I really love these characters and have to give this 4.5 stars. The only thing that kind of bothers me is that each book ends with a cliffhanger, hate cliffhangers, but at least it starts exactly where it left off.

After an accusation is made against Darcy the fates step in to verify that she is Mason’s true mate. The couple have no choice but to undergo a dangerous trial in order to prove once and for all that they are meant to be together. Devlin, the vampire enforcer goes along with Darcy on her trial in order to help her as he can. The question is will they be able to complete the trials and finally be able to move on with their lives or will they die trying.

Both of these books are excellent reads and I am looking forward to the fourth installment. Another cliffhanger ending. Ugh!

How to Date a Werewolf (Rylie Cruz #1)How to Date a Werewolf by Rose Pressey

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rylie Cruz has quickly become one of my favorite characters. She is
witty, smart, feisty, and a little paranoid about her furry condition.
I  was torn when I first started reading not knowing where exactly it was
going to go as well as wondering who the werewolf was. Rylie runs a
matchmaking service for paranormal and humans in the French Quarter of
New Orleans. When she has a problem with one of her clients strange
things start to happen which endanger her life and a new relationship.

Rylie lives with her best friend, who is human, above her office space, She has told her friend that she is a werewolf and that she has a curse on her which prevents her from ever finding a lasting mate. While her friend has always claimed to believe her all it takes is a man to infer that Rylie has a psychological problem for her to decide he must be right. While Rylie deals with a client trying to ruin her business and thugs breaking her door looking for her Uncle, her friend and potential boyfriend are plotting to get her into therapy. Maybe she should have changed for them after all.

I’m definitely adding this series to my to read list.
