I found this book funny it had some parts that I actually laughed out loud. Kate is an editor and is trying to get Lucern to go on book tours. Eventually she winds up tricking him into going. His books are extremely popular and they are written about vampires. No one knows that they are actually his family history that he is writing about. It is a cute plot, good characters and all around fun read. I enjoyed reading this book. It was a fun, light hearted, comedy-of-errors, fluff read. This is the kind of book you would use to relax after an expecially stressful day. The plot isn't complex and there are quite a few misunderstandings with humorous consequences. The book isn't really good enough to make you remember events/scenes and want to read it again, but it is good for a few hours of amusement. It was a good book and very funny !! It was a little slow at times..but a very good book over all ! This book for the record, was not as good as A Quick Bite, but better than Love Bites. I struggled with the notion of giving this book a three star but rejected it, based on the fact that I have given many better books than this a three star. Still this isn't quite as bad as the other books I have given a two star...so 2 1/2 stars, really. Here, we once again re-visit the Argeneau vampire series. This time, grumpy Lucern gets his turn to to find a human chick who can't read his mind to fall in love with and then turn into a vampire. Predictabiltiy bites. Kate is everything a man would want in an eternity mate. She is fiesty, indespendant, and sexy... She is good natured even when dealing with tempermental Lucern. Kate is an editor for the romance novels Luc writes. But really they aren't novels, the are historical novels because they tell what has really happened in his family. Kate is a little dense at times and it takes her WAY too long to figure out that Luc is a vamp. This book is more comedic than Love Bites and there are very funny, well played scenes here. However, in between those funny, well played scenes are a lot of boring filler pages. We never truly grasp what is so special about Kate that in four hundred plus years, she stands out as THE ONE. And we never truly understand why Kate falls for grumpy nosed Lucern. Still, I like this family. I like the comic portions of these books. The sex scenes are pretty boring, and there are tons of repetitive things that happen in each of the first three books. Still, one could pass the time in many worse ways than to read this book. I know that this is a lighthearted series but it could benefit from some more depth to the characters, and some variances in plot elements. Other than that, Ms Sands can write some stellar moments into a book and there are little snippets of this story I probably won't forget easily. Preditability bites... no reviews | add a review
