Kerrelyn Sparks had me giggling almost non-stop with this story. This book was just so darned good! I was curious to see how the heroine managed to remain a virgin at the age of tweenty four, and I can say I get it. Completely understandable. This book sucked me in from the beginning and would not let me go. The characters, the story, it all just worked so well together giving a perfect amount of humor with mystery and those little moments that make you sigh and wish you were actually the heroine and Robby Mackay would just sweep you off of your feet and protect you from the big bad monster...who by the way seems to like apples.


*sighs* I'm tempted to re-read it again.

Although I agree with JessicaRabbits review, there were a few things that bothered me about Olivia. In two or three situations she SO over reacted, I was embarrassed for her. One time is when Robby found out she was a virgin.

I also appreciate a woman that can kick butt, but it's aggravating when she's being offered protection, and walks away saying I can take care of myself, knowing she cannot in this particular situation. And she did this b/c she was having a hissy-fit. Other than that, I still loved the book, and will probably always continue reading Sparks vampire series.

I loved this book! I read it in day, that's how good it was. The only thing that "bugged" me was how the heroine (Olivia) was overly distrustful of Robbie. I wanted to scream at her sometimes but thats how you know the book is good it really makes you feel something for them...

It's like this book was written by a very talented 15 year old. The shallowness of the story, the use of language, the silly love scenes are just kind of juvenile. She does a lot of telling rather than showing. People in love in four pages, no character development, lack of exposition - it's like a draft of a book that will be written later. Kerrelyn Sparks is a popular writer but that doesn't mean the writing is good. It isn't awful but it lacks any depth, romance, or edifying moments.

Recovering from being tortured by the Malcontents, Robby MacKay retreats to a greek island for a much needed rest. He is also planning his revenge. On the island he meets Olivia Sotiris, an FBI agent visiting her grandmother. Olivia has taken a break from work because she is being stalked. A serial killer she helped put behind bars has become obsessed with her, tracking her every move and sending her stuff in the mail. Robby decides to help her discover who his accomplice is. He also wants to get close to her so he can figure out how to tell her that he is actually a vampire.

This is a good addition to Sparks' Love at Stake series. Both the hero and heroine have obstacles to overcome. Olivia is used to feeling the emotions of everyone around her and knows when they are lying. She doesn't understand why she can't read Robby and doesn't know if she can trust him. Robby, must decide if revenge against the Malcontents should rule his life. And, will Olivia accept him when she finds out he is a vampire. My rating: 4 Stars.
