Search - I'm the Vampire, That's Why (Broken Heart, Oklahoma, Bk 1)

Story centers around a suburban mom (Jessica Matthews) who gets mauled by a hairy creature as she takes out the trash. She wakes up later to find that the creature nearly killed her and so she had to be Turned into a vampire. Thusly she discovers a whole world she didn't know existed that has vampires, wolf shapshifters, and humans working together, but they also have enemies. Starts off interesting, but about third or halfway through begins feel repetitive. Lots of mom jokes and snarking off at vampires. Jessica may be the soul mate of one of the oldest vampires, and has a "dilemma" over whether she should sleep with him (there is a lot of lusting and description of how gorgeous he is - on about the eyes and accent and he uses a lot of Gaelic), thus be married to him for 100 years, and also worries about how this could affect her children. A lightly plotted story, pretty quick, fun-type romance read. Has a MaryJanice Davidson air, not quite as good, but I'll give this author another chance.

This was such a good book - I couldn't stop reading, yet I didn't want it to end. As soon as I finished I immediately bought the sequel. If you like your paranormal romance more light-hearted and even funny, this is a book for you.

A pleasure to read, had me cracking up laughing. A modern day mom is turned into a vampire. Those chocolate cravings just don't disappear, & eating food is not an option. Oh but her body has been transformed into a thing of beauty. She meets Patrick, a vampire who claims to be her true love. Then there is a battle of the good vampires against the bad vampires. Quick easy read.

I really enjoyed this book. I really liked the characters and the storyline.

I love this book. I just finished reading all of the Laurell K. Hamilton, Anita Blake series. I loved that this one is light and fun. I read the whole book in 1 day.

Bardsley's writing is similar to Mary Janice Davidson. Very fun read and definitely laughed out loud. I think this is the best book of the series. I have to say I didn't quite get Jessica's logic of not wanting to bond with Patrick because of her kids. But regardless it was a quick, worthwhile read.
