Very cute, funny vampire story. This was a fun read with just the right amount of humor thrown in. I am looking forward to the next in the series to see how things go with the main characters.

"Dear Mom, I might be a wee bit late for Cousin Missy's wedding. It's been a tough week. Turns out, my blind date from hell was literally FROM HELL! Guy bit me. Next thing I know I'm being chased all over the city by vampire hunters. Oh, and did I mention, I got fired, too?"

This hilariously funny romp through the underworld of Toronto is worth every penny I spent on it, and you will enjoy it immensely too.

Sarah Dearly was just turned into a vampire, and she isn't happy about it. The past week has been hell, she's just lost her job, and the one vampire she cares for wants to kill himself. Welcome to the life of Sarah Dearly, and her hilarious romp through new vampire territory.

This debut novel by Michelle Rowen was a terrific read, and I look forward to the sequel, Fanged & Fabulous, due around Spring 2007. She also wrote one of the chapters of Bewitched, Bothered & BeVampyred, which I have waiting on my TBR and am even more anxious to read now. The story reminded me somewhat of Betsy in MJD's Undead series; Sarah's just as quirky and funny, if not more so.

Storyline interesting and funny. Rowen is similar to Macaclister's work in that she makes the main character have a sense of humor making the reader laugh a lot.

Kinda cute. Not an erotic type story--more clever and fun. I don't think there was even one "all the way" sex scene in the book. I'd read the next one if it becomes a series.

I thought this book was promising. I liked the idea of a blind date from hell turning out to be even worse then listening to the man's bowel problems and what him and his mom do for fun on Tuesdays nights. But somewhere along the way I found I just couldn't get into it. I didn't think the humor was that funny and the main vamps name bugged me crazy because I couldn't pronounce it. I did finish it and I thought some of the secondary characters had promise so I rated this right in the middle. I will read the next in the series because sometimes a book I think isn't that great is actually my issues and not the authors.
I would recommend this book to those who like paranormal on the lighter side like Kimberly Raye, MaryJanice Davidson and Lynsay Sands. Not that I think this offering is up to par with those seasoned ladies but the book does have a similar feel to it.

This was a cute book but definitely has been done before.

It reminded me a lot of Lynsay Sands's books, mainly because it is also set in Canada.

Vampire-lite.

Cute, funny story. Reminded me of Mary Janice Davidson's writing. I'm looking forward to this author's next book.

Blind dates can be bad, but Sarah Dearly's date is a true contender for worst ever. His neck nibbling didn't just leave a bruise; it turns her into a vampire, and the newest target for a pack of zealot vampire hunters. With her date now their latest victim, Sarah runs for her immortal life--straight into Thierry de Bennicoeur, a master vampire who is just a wee bit suicidal. Thierry can't resist a damsel in distress and agrees to teach Sarah how to live the vampire life if she'll help him end his own. But as it turns out, Sarah may be his best reason for living. Bitten & Smitten is a study in contrasts: frothy chick-lit wrapped around a grittier reality and a flip side featuring a modern heroine paired with a Brontean hero. And Rowen makes it all work together beautifully. Let us welcome this fresh voice to the genre. Nina Davis

This book was a fun, lite, fast read. It's a little bit different than the usual chik paranormal romance. First of all there was no sex, just kissing. The Vampires didn't have as many superpowers. They couldn't Glam people and it didn't seem like they were real strong or fast. I kept thinking to myself as i read "why doesn't he just glam her" or "that vampire should be able to kick that humans ass in a second". It was a cute story. Very PG -13.

Bitten and Smitten was a breezy, quick read that is more chick lit than paranormal. Excellent way to slightly shake up the existing chick lit formula. Please note that the romance is pretty light and there are no explicit intimacy scenes to speak of, so if these are important, you should pass. But ... there is chemistry and kissing and lots of laugh out loud snarky (think Joss Whedon) humor. The author also peppers enough pop references to keep TV and genre fans quite happy. The heroine speaks much of retail therapy. This was sort of vamp therapy for a warm spring day.

It RULED! I didnt want it to end at all! Its one of those books that has so much adventure and is so well written that you dont think it will end,and when it does its just like SHOOT. I actually stayed up to 4:00 one night finishing it.

I liked this book a lot. Of course I am a "vampire romance" junkie =)
It is different from books from best selling author Maryjanice Davidson, the theories about vampires are different so it will take you a chapter or 2 to get used to that if your used to reading Maryjanice vampire romance books. I read this book in just 2 days so it was so good that I didn't want to put it down. Whoever gets this book next will enjoy it as well.

This is an author I am unfamiliar with, but it was a refreshing, action filled vampire love story that was just the right level of dark-horror and romance. Michelle Rowen has did a fantasic job, and anxiously await getting the other books in this series. I think I'll have to add her to my list of favortie arthurs, right up there with Charlaine Harris, MaryJanice Davidson and Laurell Hamilton. Way to go, Michelle!

Okay, with this series, I definitely recommend reading it in order. I didn't and I have to admit...I would have liked this book more if I hadn't read the second book first. Nothing is spoiled for you or anything, it's just that there is a lot of character development from the beginning of this book and the second book.

Regardless, give it a try.

Was a good book.

Couldn't finish this book. I like my paranormal fiction a bit more dark.

This book was fun to read. The supernatural romance fiction is really huge right now and i get nervous when i read a new author ( an author i've never read before) trying to jump on the bandwagon, but i was very much entertained with this book and will keep reading anything by Michelle Rowen.

I thought this was a fun book but I think this is a romance for people who dont like a lot of physical contact. They hardly even kiss in the book and I dont think it is a great romance novel which is what it is labeled as. However it is a pretty good vampire book but when an Ann Rice novel is more erotic and that is strictly Sci Fi you know it is a sad day for romance. You see where Im going. If you dont like a lot of sex in your romance this is for you.

Couldnt put it down, a laugh a minute.

was ok
