A comfort food. I like most of the offerings in this series. The vampire mythology is good for me as I don't like the whole undead vampire thing so any explanation that makes them not dead and not have to kill the one they love is good with me. This one is more like the earlier books in the series instead of the last few. In other words it focuses more on the couple and less on the evil set of vampires who are warring with them. It is light hearted but not in a real campy way. Usually the things the old vampires go through to try to reconnect with the modern world once they meet their lifemate are amusing. The hero was a likable man and a gentleman and the heroine was a strong self sufficient woman. If you like the series, you'll probably like this one. ( )

Another funny and entertaining vamp story from Lynsay Sands. While there was nothing really new to this plot, I still loved the characters and enjoy reading about another member of the Argeneau family. I am looking forward to reading book 15. ( )

This wasn't my most favorite of the series. There wasn't that flare that I enjoy in Ms. Sands books. It was basically a girl playing hard to get for a little bit then BAM porn central, and a little bit of intrigue on who was sabotaging her, and attacking her. Yeah it just wasn't my fav of the series is all. ( )

Another fun read, love watching Cale find his lifemate, attempting cook, a great team together

The heroine is in a panic. Her restaurant is scheduled to open but it’s nowhere near constructed and her head chef has quit and everything is absolute chaos. The hero, a vampire who’s lived hundreds of years, still has no idea what to do in the face of finding his life mate. He’s awkward and shy and far from a ladies man. His family, the matchmakers they are, discover his secret and immediately plan to set them up. The hero is recommend this handsome young man who is an amazing chef and will more than willing to help her out with her problems. The hero is in a fluster because not only having absolutely no clue how to cook, he hasn’t in fact actually eaten anything in a few hundred years. But the fact that he would be given the opportunity to be close to his life mate urges him to accept the position. I enjoyed this book but it was a very basic story and fit the cookie cutter mold of the rest of the vampire series. The one thing I did get a chuckle out of was the fact that this author took her love obsession with food to its highest level by setting the story at a restaurant. ( )
