Well, as good as it can be for an un-dead, single-mom.But then two brothers buy the fixer-upper next … buy the fixer-upper next door. Never mind that one’s a sin waiting to happen and the other is a bit of a jerk, neighbors are bad news for a vampire in training. Plus, Claire can’t shake the feeling someone’s stalking her. Since she hasn’t heard from her maker, Bette, or the other members of the Triad since Florida, she’s on her own.

Witches,Vampires,Sexy Werewolves,yes this book has them all. I cannot say enough about this series. I love them! Alex Owens started this book where book 1 ended seamlessly. She takes you along as Claire through her trial and tribulations of learning to be a Vampire/Witch while keeping in touch with her humanity for her daughter. Who said becoming a vampire, gaining magical powers and being a mom couldn’t be done? Don’t miss this series,book 3 here I come!
First let me state, I received an Advance Reader Copy, (ARC), but this in no way influences my review. I always leave an honest review.
I loved this continuing story of Claire’ s becoming a vamp from book, Something Chosen. She’s trying to be normal, like a mom, friend, neighbor, etc when she isn’t. There’s a lot going on, & even werewolves. I recommend this read. 5 Thumbs up
I am loving this series so far Claire is back home and has to get use to to the undead life and has a nanny She now has a nanny if that’s not bad enough just add 2 sexy boys next door it gets harder not to slip up. Lol its a must read
This book is full of mayhem and magic. Claire returns home from her trip to Florida, things are not the same. She has changed in more ways than just becoming a vampire. Claire has a lot on her mind. She is not going down without a fight. Claire has divorced her husband. Her life is constantly changing. I cannot wait to read book 3 to see what is happening in Claire’s life.
Claire is back! It’s late in the year and she’s still working through coming to terms with her old life and her new life. She left her job, divorced her no good ex-husband and is settling in to life with Morgan has her live-in nanny for her daughter, Quinn. Claire is doing her best to adjust but there are going to be some problems. Her biggest problem turns out to be her feeding habits. She can’t eat regular food anymore, and it’s not like she can just go to a blood bank and walk out with a few bags. She can dream though, right? But Claire is really in for a few surprises, and one is far from pleasant. One day, Claire receives a couple of packages. She’s hesitant to open them, so she puts it off until another time. Then, one evening when she is outside a strange overwhelming hatred makes itself known. Claire has no idea of where it is coming from or even who it is coming from. But whoever it is does not like her at all. Since she knows only one person who could feel this way towards her…she’s left with a short list of zero to who else fits the bill. Claire not only has her immediate feeding problems to figure out, but so much more when she gets a few unexpected surprises. So buckle up and get ready for a fun ride!
Something Hidden by Alex Owens is book two in her Shadow Vampire series. I am happy to say that I was thrilled with book two. Book one, for me, was a bit blasé at times, and was up and down in keeping my interest throughout. Book two is a roller coaster that engaged me from the beginning. Claire is more engaging and interesting as a character. I’m glad to see her working to settle into being a vampire. She’s working to lessen Morgan’s dependence on her. I view Morgan as an asset, but we’ll see what continues to happen between them. I think my favorite parts in this book are Claire’s interactions with her lame ex. She handles the situations so well, and I can’t help but smile wickedly and laugh half the time. This book has quite a bit of humor and a couple of really laugh out loud moments.
This go around there really wasn’t much that I didn’t like about this book. The author really does a great job with this book. I will warn that there are a couple of spelling errors. The author slips and says “desert” instead of “dessert” when describing a wine, but uses the correct spelling the second time around. Also, uses “site” when it should be “sight.” Other than those two small missteps, this book is absolutely flawless and flowing. Now, for those who don’t like cliffhangers…the author ends on one. Yes, it made me howl, but it just means I’m looking forward to the next book in the series.
All in all, I am rating this book 5 out of 5 stars. I absolutely loved this book and am glad that it was better than the first. The author does a fantastic job with the characters in this story. If you enjoyed the first book in this series, grab this book up immediately. But if you didn’t enjoy the first book that much, I recommend you pick this book up. The pace is better, and the characters truly come together and will keep you page turning to the end.
When Claire returns home things are not the same. Her trip to Florida has changed her in more ways than just becoming a vampire. But when Clive and the Cassidy come to visit, things start to make sense
Fantastic. Clara and the rest of the characters are amazing. The story is written well and keeps you interestedwithout being boring. I can’t wait to see what happens next.
I think I loved this one even more than the first! It had me hooked from the start and I couldn’t put it down till I was finished. Watch out with this series it hooks you and you can’t stop reading! I can not wait for book 3!
FANGIRLING HARD!
I am so in love with this series! Alex Owens has a way with words literally! We All can definitely relate to Claire. I don’t give SPOILER’S. I highly recommend this entire series. This vampire series is fangtastic!
I’m looking forward to seeing more from Miss Owens
