Surprise
The first book’s blurb read like a naughty secret, but the content was a surprising blend of intrigue and solid story. Book 2 continues the tradition, presenting new facets to this ever growing vampire saga, pulling Piper farther into the realm of the Durand’s while teasing us with a RH series that is shockingly slow burn.
Pros:
- Piper’s Character is more fleshed out in this installment, as are the brothers via their own POV chapters.
- It teases the physical aspects, but keeps a firm lid on fulfillment till the very end.... and with a surprising partner.
- Familial drama abounds.
Cons:
- Editing issues, though most are minor.
- Too short.

This one was extremely slow. Also, what was the point of the ordeal with the parents? The whole thing wasn't very well written with ridiculous dialogues, and it didn't really help the story.

Solid 4.5 star
I just loved even though there is some time between the books you fell right back into the story and characters as soon as you start reading. We get to know even more about the Masters and how they came to be but also more about Pipers past and what her family is like. There is a good mix of humor and suspense as well as anticipation about decisions needing to be made and what will come next for all of them.

Piper has caught the unwanted attention of a rival Vampire, but will she tell her Masters?
Will Piper fall for the charms of one of the Vampires of the house?
Will the Vampires of House Durand stand by Piper’s side?
This was another fun & quirky adventure with tension and spice.

Fantastic addition to the series.
I love that you are starting to learn more about each brother, and I hope this continues. This book has great drama and I cannot weit until the next installment.

Piper is awesome
I liked that this was told from multiple points of view. You get to know each of the guys better. Which I like. However this could use a proofreader as I noticed several issues such as missing words that couldn’t be overlooked

After Valentine's visit, Piper's refusal to follow orders and keep her mouth shut things seem to have gone back to normal. Piper does her work, breaks the occasional object, fantasizes about the guys (her favorites mostly), and mouths off when the moment/situation suits her. While the last book was steamy things do get a bit steamier with this one so get ready!
Wanted by the Vampires picks up where book one leaves off which I really like. You get the feeling that there is tension between everyone as Valentine isn't giving up in expressing his interest in Piper. He knows she's not bonded, claimed or being bitten by the guys so he's intent on trying to claim her for himself. Thankfully Piper has enough sense from her first encounter to know that this is not something she wants. Too bad she's not willing to take responsibility for running her mouth when she should have just bit her tongue.
I like that we get more of the guys in this book. It keeps things engaging and then them being summoned adds to the drama and tension. Tension climbs when Piper's period makes an appearance. Of course, things go haywire, but what's a girl to do when Mother Nature decides that you need a major blow when it comes to that time of the month? While we do get some action with this book, for those who are hoping for more...sorry. Not yet. Still a major tease of a slow burn, but at least we're getting somewhere.
There are some inconsistencies in this story, but I'm sure that they have been addressed and caught by now. My only real issue with this book is Piper herself. Either she's overreacting to a certain situation or she's acting like a teenager. No, I'm not talking about being horny. I'm talking about her attitude and level of snark. For me, she comes off more teenager than a grown woman. Then in a certain scene when Wynn apologizes to HER for her getting hurt behind her being nosey...I'm sorry but I gave that scene major side eye. I get that Wynn knows she's hot for him, but for him to apologize for her being...essentially dumb enough to be standing behind a soundproof door trying to be nosey...she got what she deserved.
I am rating this book 4.5 out of 5 stars. I'm eager for more to get going between these characters and for the reverse harem aspect to come together, but for now, I am enjoying the series and am looking forward to more. I just hope that in the next book that Piper matures a bit because for me, she acts a bit too childish too often. If you've enjoyed this series to this point grab this book and dive in.
