Bite Me If You Can

My thoughts:

Another good and light Argeneau vampire novel. I truly like that about this series. And once again, this one can easily be read as a standalone novel. I have only read 3 out of 6, but it works. There is a new couple in each, and the whole vampire thing is explained to the newbies. Trust me on this.

In this one a woman, Leigh is out walking and gets attacked. Luckily for her Lucian comes to the rescue as he is hunting down her attacker. Since she is bitten he explains things to her *coughs*, ok he tries, he calls in help, and he is pretty bad at the whole thing. That is what I liked most about him, for someone among the oldest in the world (talking BC here), he is pretty bad at certain things. He is the grumpy grandpa that has given up on sex and food, since why bother at all. What can I say, I liked him, especially in one scene where he buys books about how to talk to woman. Leigh then, well she comes to term with the whole vampire/nano thing pretty fast. But she has been hurt by a man in the past so she is not that keen on falling in love, or lust with anyone.

These books are light, there is some humour, and there is some passion. I just sat down and read it fast, and I do like books like that. You can just relax, sit back and read a cute story about a couple falling in love. Though as always there is some danger in them too, here it's the guy that bit her and he will be back at the end.

What next, well I would really like to see Marguerite's book. That would be fun (nr 9 it seems ;)

Conclusion:

The whole vampire thing is still interesting, I do like the story of Atlantis and how "vampires" were created. The lightness and humour in the books make them fun reads. Cute and fast.

Rating:

They are enjoyable ( )

This is book 6 is the Argeneau Vampire Series and I loved it.

Lucian Argeneau, who is uncle to the people in the earlier books, is a hunter of rogue vampires and he has come to Kansas City to hunt one when he finds Leigh, a recently turned vampire.

Lucian has been alone for a long time, since his family was lost in the fall of Atlantis. After a series of events he is left with having to look after Leigh and help her through her turning - he also finds he cannot read her which means she could be his life mate. Both Lucian and Leigh have to come to terms with that one. ( )

Two Minute Review for “Bite Me If You Can” by Lynsay Sands

Leigh was bitten by a rogue vampire and is saved by Lucian Argeneau. Lucian is sort of a police man of the vampire nation. It turns out the rogue wants Leigh back. Between helping her learn to control the thirst, protecting her and cleaning up after the dog, Lucian is a very busy vampire. I enjoyed the first part of the book. A man out of his element is funny and touching. I think parts of the book bogged down. There is not a lot of action in the middle and a lot of character interaction between Lucian and Leigh. ( )

One of my favorite series. If you haven't read these, please do. ( )

Even ageless immortals can be crusty old men. And all it takes is a young beautiful woman to melt that crust.

Perhaps it is the family conspiracy, but Lucian seems much more human than in the other novels of this series. And Leigh has a strength of character that shines through, especially when kicking vampire butt.

A light, quick read, written with a deft touch that keeps the reader enrapt. ( )
