Bricker is a hoot! Ya gotta feel sorry for him…. his one and only is already married!!! Ugh and then his buddies set him up to woo Holly and tell him all the things she dislikes but tell him those are the things to win her with! Poor Holly is overwhelmed with the turn, the life mate issue, the turn…and the fact that she is indeed attracted to Bricker but refuses to leave the husband…the courtship is quite hilarious and will make you smile and LOL! Lots of pitfalls on the way to the end but it ends in a HEA for everyone! This is a fun series … careful you may just laugh out loud for real!
Justin has always been one of my favorite characters in the Argeneau Series. I was hoping for more laughter. I did enjoy that Holly and Justin weren’t being chased by bad guys.
Brilliant with humorous aspects HEA
Characters are great, I was waiting for Justin the main character in this book to finally meet his life mate. What a great story! I found it humorous, and fall in love with the other characters. Could not put this one down. Loved it.
This is a part of the Argeneau series and it was a great read. I just love this authors books and I can’t wait to read more by her.
Great book!
It is a great book
About a Vampire is book twenty two in the Argeneau series by Lynsay Sands and it can be read on it’s own. It’s not necessary to have followed the story from the begging to pick this one up.
Holly is currently working as a part-time worker for a funeral home when she unexpectedly encounters Justin one night. Justin is there doing his Hunter job and disposing of the bad vampires that have been killed.
I liked About a Vampire as much as I could, but I was hopping for more. It lacked the humor that I have come to love and enjoy. It didn’t have a very good explanation on why Justin is attracted to Holly. The only thing we get is that he can’t read her mind, which is one of the indications that an Immortal has found their lifemate. And, last their was no true conflict and so the story just dragged.
Justin’s lifemate in this one is Holly and it turns out she’s married. Is married before her turn and after to a human. I kinda felt bad for Justin having to deal with finding his lifemate and then knowing he can’t have her; because she’s married. Holly on the other hand never wowed me. I get her wanting to be loyal to her wedding vows, but the more we learn about her marriage the more it sounds like it was convent and that they are friends with benefits instead of true husband and wife team. But, what really upset me about this story is Justin’s friends and colleagues. They where deliberately mean to Justin. They gave him very bad advice on what Holly likes. Yes, in the other stories Justin razed them and gave them a hard time when they found their lifemates, but he was never deliberately cruel and the women never got hurt by his antics. It was just so wrong and upsetting to see this. Then their is the ending where everything wraps up nice and easy and it’s all a ok. It was to convent of a way to wrap everything up and make it all turn out for the best.
The only thing that I truly enjoyed was the return of shared dreams. Why? It’s one of the indications of a lifemate and one that we haven’t seen in a while.
About a Vampire was an easy and comfortable read, but disappointing for me as a fan.
