 Content Warnings: violence, some sexual content, blood, and classism.

I kept pushing myself through this book hoping that I would end up rooting for and liking the main couple...but there's way too much back and forth. Will they won't they? And then random things/people thrown in seemingly to add layers but not really fully fleshing it out...

Originally I was going to still read book two, thinking it was a duology and the story could be brought together in a good way...but I realized it's a 4 book series focusing on this main couple and...I just don't have the energy now to push my way through that much. 😅

I picked this up on a whim as the concept of the vampire having been asleep since the 1980s and waking up in present day intrigued me. I liked the contrast between Julian and Thea’s characters and Julian’s grumpy resistance to technology. The plot was interesting and didn’t settle for all of the usual vampire traits. 
I very much enjoyed the Phantom of the Opera link. And the nice dose of spiciness didn’t do any harm either. Hadn’t realised it was a series until I was about 3/4 of the way through, so looking forward to them being delivered.

DUDE. Dude. This was so much fun!! All I can say is that if you like grumpy sunshine, mates, vampires, or fake dating this is for you. I don’t have time to say anything else because I already own book two and I need to read it right now!

Too much sex and weak FMC, too much happens in about a weeks time, not a fan of the instant love as it’s not believable, irrational FMC and borderline abusive MMC, characters actions are inconsistent a lot of the time.

I received a complimentary copy of this book via Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are my own opinions.

I firmly believe that Filthy Rich Vampire has put me in a thrawl. By the end of the first chapter, I was hooked and sneaking in some reading whenever I had a second. 

This book is a wonderful mix of romance, action, and banter that kept me entertained throughout every chapter.

The only downfall is that it ends with a Clifford hanged, I need to know what happens next.
