The newest paranormal romance in the national bestselling Broken Heart series
Everybody makes mistakes-and my first one was named Connor, a heart- stealing Scottish hottie. I thought our night together was the beautiful beginning to a love story, which turned out to be my second mistake. I, Phoebe Allen, lifelong Broken Heart resident and vampire, am now mated to a half-demon.
Thankfully Phoebe's four-year-old son Danny is safely away at Disneyworld with his human father. Because Phoebe's right in the middle of major paranormal drama, helping Connor and his rag-tag group of friends retrieve part of an ancient talisman in order to ward off Connor's vicious stepmother, an uber-demon named Lilith. Phoebe swears she isn't falling for any of Connor's demon charm. But still, he's willing to do anything to protect her and prevent demons from storming into Broken Heart. And her undead heart can't resist a bad boy with identity issues...
Michele Bardsley lives with her husband, their two children, and Her Highnesses Isis and Cleopatra, two of the most spoiled Bengal cats on the planet.

Intriguing. Book six of series.,

This review is from: Come Hell Or High Water (Mass Market Paperback)
Phoebe Allen is a single mother of a four-year-old named Danny who is currently with his father and out of town. Phoebe is also a vampire, Turned only weeks after Danny's birth. She resides in Broken Heart, where the super natural are protected. Connor Ballard has been in Broken Heart for the last month and has slowly seduced Phoebe into his bed, tricking her into becoming his mate. It is too late for Phoebe when she finally learns of Connor's deceit. She is now mated to a half demon.
Thanks to a prophecy, Connor has pulled Phoebe into a situation fraught with pain and deceptions. But the young vampire is about to learn how to be more dangerous than even the worst demon in Hades. **** FOUR STARS! This story speeds up quickly and seldom slows down as Phoebe finds herself being catapulted from one dangerous event to the next. The author uses just about every type of supernatural being to entertain her readers this time. (Demons, vampires, fairies, goddesses, hellhounds and more.) If you are looking for a simply paranormal romance, this is not it. I found this story to be deep and complex with multiple ongoing undertones. Intriguing! **** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.

fun chick-lit urban fantasy romance,
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Come Hell Or High Water (Mass Market Paperback)
In Broken Heart, Oklahoma single mom Phoebe Allen is looking forward for a short breather while her four years old son Danny is visiting Disneyworld with his dad. .However, her respite ends almost immediately after Danny leaves.
Half demon Connor Ballard courts the vampiric mom because he believes she is his only hope to prevent his purebred demon stepmother Lilith from escaping her incarceration in hell. However his pursuit changes when they are mated, but he knows he must stand vigilant because if Lilith escapes to earth all hell will break out. Phoebe realizes she must help the hunk, but does not have to consign her heart with new mate; now if only her heart would heed her advice. As always with this chick-lit urban fantasy romance series, Michelle Bardsley combines humor with romance and this time literally the stepmom from hell. The story line is fast-paced as the wind comes sweeping down the plain is not sweet; almost as terrifying as the heroine's first night in town when a Consortium member welcomed her to Oklahoma sooner than she wanted. Fans will enjoy this thin but fun tale as the vampire mom figuratively insists "Over My Dead Body". Harriet Klausner 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:

4 Hearts from TRS!,
By Tina Pavlik "Tina" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Come Hell Or High Water (Mass Market Paperback)
I enjoyed book 6 of The Broken Heart Series. This installment was a little darker than the previous offerings but filled with enough laugh-out-loud moments as to not make it too scary. The author's sarcasm is an art form and this story is full of wit and humor. This is a frisky adventure. I love demon heroes and Scots so Connor is a twofer! There's just something so sexy about an ultimate bad boy. If you are expecting your favorite residents of Broken Heart you'll be disappointed as much of the action takes place beyond the small town's Invisi-shield. I wished that I could have spent a little more time with the Irish hotties and the sexy, fury German triplets but I liked meeting a whole new cast of characters. It was nice to finally learn more about Phoebe as she hasn't really been spoken of much in past books. I just felt like this could have used something more, it was as if something was missing that I couldn't put my finger on. If you are new to the series or a frequent visitor to the paranormal haven in Oklahoma this is a fun read. - Theresa Joseph

First read was great!,
By Christie Lou - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Come Hell Or High Water (Mass Market Paperback)
I had never read a book in this series so this was a great surprise! This book was hilarious! While I don't normally enjoy books written in the first person, I thought this one was very well written and really connected with this character. She was flawed, not as great as she thought she was, and basically learning along the way. Yeah, pretty much how I feel! This book had parts that were a little hard to understand if you haven't read the series, but those parts DO NOT detract from the story and I enjoyed the humor, romance (was it ever hot!), and story line. I am definately going to go back and buy the previous books in this series. I LOVE Michele's writing and sense of humor and look forward to more of her books!
