I'm glad I finally started on this series.
Single White Vampire was a cute, amusing, chick-lit style vampire romance. But unlike the thick, flowery, icky romantic writing style of Christine Feehan, this book's style more closely resembles that of MaryJanice Davidson's Undead series.
Lucern Argeneau is a vampire, but he's also a writer. Little does the unsuspecting public realize that the paranormal romance books he's writing are actually accounts of his family's history: the relationship of his mother Marguerite and father Claude, his brother Etienne to Rachel Garrett, his sister Lissianna to Gregory Hewitt... the stories he tells in his books, while fact to him, are fiction to the public because who really believes in vampires anyway?
Kate Leever is Lucern's editor, and pays a visit to Luc to try to convince him to participate in a few publicity events for his books. She is shocked by the reclusive and surly vampire—though she doesn't yet realize that's what he truly is. Between Kate and Luc's mother, they trick him into attending the
Romantic Times conference, where Kate begins to wonder about the increasing feelings she has towards him as she begins to crack Luc's hardened exterior and see the true man beneath.
There were a number of funny scenes, such as Luc's introduction to television, and his indignation at watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. "Did you see that? Buffy just staked that poor vampire. He had yet to
do anything even untoward, he just crawled out of his grave and she staked him. That is just not right!" LOL

Light modern vampire romance; 2nd in series of Argeneau family.

Cute, light read. Not my usual type of book, so it took me a while to get into it. Once I did, though, I finished it quickly and started looking for more books by the author.

OMG! The scene starting on page 277 has got to be one of the funniest things I've read recently. Good book all around, but this scene is like icing on a cake.

A good fun read -- with vampires. Puts a different twist on some of the vampire "myths."

SWM-"Lucern." Successful biographer of family, books recently categorized as "paranormal romances." Something of a recluse. Hates crowds, aggressive women. Doesn't like sunbathing, garlicky dinners or religious symbols. Likes old-fashione values; spicy mexican dishes; warm,nice-smelling necks; and plump red lips. Stronger than then men and can vanish in the blink of an eye. Currently unaware he's seeking a woman to share eternity.
SWF-"Kate C. Leever." Newest editor of Rmance at Roundhouse Publishing. Perky, fun. Has recently discovered a egacy author just dying to be broken out. In fact, her career could take off from it. (The tall, dar, handsome writer just needs to be takend to several romance conventions and introduced to his fans...and stopped from acting so strange in public.) Dislikes "difficult, rude, obnoxious, pig-headed writers." Currently unaware she's met the man of her wildest dreams.

This is a very sexy, clever take on a romance novel. Lots of fun and surprisingly well-written.

This the first book I've read by Lyndsay Sands and I enjoyed it very much. Great characters and the book is really funny.

I really, really liked this book. It's about a romance writer .... who just happens to be male ... and just happens to be a vampire. It is light and fun. His editor hasn't a clue. She wants to drag him to romance conventions and speaking engagements. NOT your typical Vampire Book.
