The construct of this cowboy vampire romance is too convenient. Our hero is a 150-year-old vampire who feeds not only on blood, but sexual energy. Just as he's found the way to turn himself back into a human, he meets the woman who's given him the best sexual energy he's ever fed off, and he starts to realize that he might want to settle down. Luckily things don't end up the way it seems they will, although the change of plans is never really resolved in a way that seems fulfilling. I'm also a little disturbed by the heroine's desire to be turned into a vampire when it seems that the cure for her hunk's vampirism is so close. If I didn't think about it too hard, the actual love story was decent, but the whole vampire concept was weak at best. At least there weren't any sparkles.

I'm not sure what made me pick up this book - other than it fit a challenge I needed a quick read for. It was formula romance TO A T - lust at first sight that turns into love. Bad boy, good girl. Meh.

Nikki Braxton is done with men, tired of their cheating ways and unusual hobbies, that is until she meets sultry Jake McCann. Jake is striking, brooding, and all out sexy in a finely wrapped package, when he suggests they go back to his motel for a night of uninhibited sex the good girl in Nikki quickly refuses. After some thought though, the bad girl in Nikki decides, why not, one night of lusty sex with no commitments is just what she needs. You don't always get what you wish though, when vampire Jake forms an unusual bond with Nikki.

There were aspects of this story I really enjoyed but some of it was jumbled and the end was not quite as final as I would have liked, it definitly setup for a sequel though.

This was a nice enough read. Just think about it - a motorcycle riding cowboy vampire, it already sounds good. I recommend this book if you're looking for a quick nice read with no deep meaning for a sunday afternoon.

Solid start to a series… I hope this particular vampire mythology is explained a tad bit more in the coming books
