review 1: Cynthiana – new vampire, though bitten without being asked… bitten by Andre St. James – who has lived a couple of hundred years, and recognized her immediately at his soulmate, and gave into impulse to make sure she could not be harmed.Unsure how much time passed, but he comes (uninvited) to celebrate Valentine’s Day with her… she has mad, passionate sex with him (she can’t resist), but kicks him out – she cannot accept his autocratic ways. At a bar with her friend, she gets a frantic call from her drug addicted, prostitute sister who calls because her 10 year old daughter was in a car accident… and Cyn rushes out to get to her – driving from LA to Las Vegas… but she hits a rabbit, blows a tire, and the AAA can’t find her… she gets a call from her ... moreniece who tells her she is fine, mom overreacted… and then from Andre, and bursts into tears and he gets to be understanding and helpful… telling her he will let her use his comp room at the new casino in Vegas (which he forgets to tell her he owns)… tow truck shows up, she gets to vegas before the sun comes up… and is treated like royalty and taken to the penthouse… Andre of course joins her, listens to her, and shows he is trying to be the man she needs him to be – not bossing, but consulting… they have mad sex again… and again… and he takes her to her sister’s trailer when it gets dark… assesses the situation, realizes that Cyn not only lost her choice when he turned her, he made it all but impossible for her to adopt and protect her niece (world not warmed up to vampires yet)… to make things right, he invites the niece, her mom (Cyn’s sister), to come live with him in a mansion In LA… and Cyn’s heart, which was teetering, spills over… ahhhh
review 2: Just finish reading this book got it for free so I really can't complain. The book is a short quick read it wasn't prefect and it wasn't great it falls in between. It starts out very enticing but dwindle just a tiny bit for me it went from A to M instead of A to B. Cyn was bitten by Andrea the first night they hooked up because he knew she was the one his mate and didn't want to wait when the time was right. Cyn was angry that he did this (she wasn't that angry i think personally), now they need to adjust to each other as well as get to know each other which brings out surprising information about both of them. I personally think it was OK and I've read worst books that are free so if your looking for a quickie something to kill time then this is for you and by the way the sex wasn't that bad either.Additional info added: I see this is the 2nd book in a series so maybe that's why I was a little lost with the werewolf and other things in the story.

Funny, quirky, quick read. I didn't read the first one and still got the story just fine.

Cute, short read. Story was a bit hypocritical/sexist at times but still enjoyable.

Definitely not what I was expecting....a novella with some steamy scenes.
