Nurse Julie Taylor has been lusting after
Roger Decker, a sexy police officer, for months now. Their
days off haven’t coincided, though, so they’ve had to content
themselves with stolen kisses in a closet. One night after
bringing in a crazy guy who thinks he’s a vampire hunter,
Roger finally asks Julie out. Julie’s so excited about the
date she thinks nothing can bring her down—at least until a
man attacks her when she’s walking home. The next morning she
awakens to the face of her neighbor, who whisks her inside
just as the sun is rising, claiming she’s been turned into a
vampire! Now she’s got to decide if she should go on her
date, and if she should tell Roger about her new
sun-challenged status…
Sex, Lies, & Vampire Hunters
is a fun, fast-paced vampire story. Julie’s frustration
and confusion after she’s turned made her both believable and
sympathetic, and Roger was just yummy! It was easy to root
for these two characters to get together, as they seemed like
a great match for each other. Supporting characters, such as
Julie’s neighbor, her friend Kim, Roger’s partner, and the
vampire hunter all add a lot to the story. I liked the way
Myla Jackson emphasized the characters’ internal struggles but
didn’t get too heavy on the angst. If you’re in the mood for
a quick, enjoyable vampire tale, pick up Sex, Lies, &
Vampire Hunters! |
