review 1: I received this book in exchange for an honest review (Lovers of Paranormal on goodreads.com).Excellent story! I must agree with what some other reviewers have said in regards to the grammar and punctuation, however. It really could have benefitted from some good editing. Occasionally during the dialogue, I had difficulty determining who was speaking because the author didn't always create a new paragraph each time a different character spoke. I also noticed the change in tenses sometimes.That being said, the story itself was excellent, as I said. I love that the characters have flaws and aren't afraid of them. It makes them so much more real. I do think that there are times when Beck is unnecessarily cruel, but considering she has had so few relationships in her lif... moree that haven't been cruel, it's impressive that she isn't worse! I like that she seems to mellow, especially as she comes to accept new roles within her paranormal family.I also really liked the little twist on how an undead heart can beat....that's all I'll say! No spoilers here!I will be continuing with the series clear to the end because the author has made me care about these characters. I have laughed and cried my way through book one, and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens to the Jaxon/Young clan as the story progresses. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy this story!
review 2: Rebecca (Beck) Stockdale is an unusual young woman. Her parents call her a freak because she wants to study parapsychology. Beck's older sister Bev and "The Man" have been her constant supports through out her life in ways that her parents never will be. Beck's life changes the day "The Man" decides to tell her who he really is to her. Beck's life will never be the same again and she likes it that way. "The Man" is really Richard Beck's mate. Richard is really a vampyre and knows that to drink Beck's blood is poison to him and other vampyre's like him. Richard tells Beck that his all alone except for his brother Leso since the rest of his family is dead. Beck wants to change this for Richard and Leso for all the happiness they've brought her. Only one thing can put a damper on this idea vampyre named Elderson. Can Beck truly bring back Richard and Leso's family? How is this accomplished? What about Elderson? Your answers await you in The Undead Heart.I loved the vampyre lore presented in this story! It follows most of traditional vampyre lore but with truly unique twists not yet explored by other authors. Hands down the best character in this story has to be Beck. She literally does not put up with other people's personal hang ups which other people stumble over into big drama. I appreciate how the author handle alot of aspects in this story that could have been real stumbling blocks. I look forward to the next installment in the series. less
