Book Blurb
Just when Nikki Braxton has given up on finding a normal guy she meets cowboy Jake McCann.
Tall, dark and delicious, he could be the ideal man- if he wasn't a vampire. Well, at least that explains his... uh... hunger for her. Meanwhile, that down and dirty sex they're having is giving him the energy he needs to destroy his nemesis and break the vampire curse. Good thing, because being with Nikki makes him long for a normal life that much more.
But then Nikki is abducted. If Jake saves her, he may lose his only shot at becoming human again.
Talk about damned if you do...
My thoughts
I love cowboys.
I love vampires.
How could this go wrong?
Jake has so much potential but I guess he just wasn't alpha/dark and broody enough for me. And while his yummy nature is undeniable I just didn't feel the draw to his character.
Nikki, on the other hand, I loved. She's got a list of crappy ex-guys and is trying to please both her aunt and her mother, plus run a business.
Overall I felt the story was good and I do plan on reading Dillon's but I'll probably read a few other books before I dig in to his.
The cover looks good
The cover looks good you gotta admit. I really liked these two books but I liked Jake a bit more than Dillon. I'll be curious to what you think after you read the next one.
