I am trying to not divulge any secrets here, but Sarah does have a happy ending. I thought Michelle Rowen did a great job with this series and it died a natural death rather than limping along like some paranormal romance series. This is a quick read and it is best to start this series from the beginning. Tall, Dark & Fangsome is the final installment in the Immortality Bites series featuring Sarah Dearly. The story starts up immediately after the cliff-hanger ending in Stakes & Stilettos. Sarah, is still dealing with her nightwalker problem, she is still being blackmailed and has had to keep her relationship with Thierry on the downlow, or else he will be doomed to eternal hellfire, and her friends are still trying to hook her up (don't they remember this all got started with a blind date gone wrong-geesh). I want to make it known that I have not read any of the other books in the series, so I was coming to this book with no previous knowledge of the characters. With that said, I absolutely loved this book! Of course, now I need to get my hands on the earlier books in the series just to see how it all started and how we got to where we are in the beginning of Tall, Dark & Fangsome. The characters in these stories are so colorful and full of life (or lack thereof), they are so likeable that it really is hard to pick favorites. Sarah Dearly is the coolest heroine ever. She is witty, clever and quite funny. Thierry is the hot, tortured, older (and by older I mean, older by several hundred years) vampire boyfriend. With danger lurking in every corner, Sarah’s nightwalker issues, and some twists I didn’t see coming, this book is definitely not all B-positive cocktails. This is a delightful series and a must-read for lovers of the paranormal romance genre. I read the first two books last year, but I have to admit I'm not sure why I didn't read the third and fourth books in this paranormal series about Sarah Dearly (who was turned into a vampire on a particularly bad blind date). Fortunately, Rowen skillfully wove backstory details into Tall, Dark and Fangsome, so I never felt as if I was lost during this enjoyable final installment of the series. In fact, I think I'll be reading the previous books in the not-too-distant future! As an aside, I definitely got more out of this book after my recent visit to Toronto, where the series is set. no reviews | add a review

Like the other books in the series, this one a fast-paced, easy read. Rowen stays true to her writing style with witty characters, exciting twists and unexpected turns. It was hard to put down. I could have used more Theirry, but he was the mysterious man as usual. Although we do see a slightly different side of him, a bit more vulnerable. I was slightly frustrated by one relationship, I felt random and a bit forced, but I do not want to give away any spoilers. Overall it was a great read, I would recommend the whole series to an fan of vampire lit. (
