Utterly brilliant, side splitting, sexy romp!,

This review is from: Single White Vampire (Mass Market Paperback)
Lynsay absolutely rocks with her new series about a dysfunctional vampire family! I won't go into the plot line too heavy because you need to experience all the surprises and delights yourself.A mother, two sons and a daughter (and more relatives to come hopefully) face the every day struggles of vampire existence in the 21st Century. In this tale, originally called Lucern, we meet Lucern Argeneau, the first son. He is a four hundred year old vampire, getting by in the dreary world by writing contemporary romances about...well, vampires...only no one catches on he is merely writing about his family. To his surprise, they are a big success, so much so his editor, Kate C. Leever of Roundhouse Publishing is determined to drag the reclusive writer to the Romantic Times Convention. Lucern is a grumpy - albeit sexy - curmudgeon, and he is determined NOT to go to a book convention. However, Kate is a whirlwind, an editor - who has little life outside her work - so she is firmly determined to drag him kicking and screaming into the limelight. She gets aid from his family, who think Kate is not only a super editor, but also the perfect mate for Lucern. And while Lucern loves her as an editor - at a distance - he hates to admit he feels an attraction for the pushy lady. Only, romance for the vampire - as well as attending a book convention - has a lot of modern day drawbacks. Kate fits in well with his family, though she finds them a bit odd. Lynsay is known for her side-aching humour, but she is at top form as Lucern is forced into the world of sunshine and supermarkets. Being your totally civilised vamp, Lucian does not go around biting necks - let's face it, in today's situation of aids, drugs and diseases only a foolish vampire runs around taking blood without knowing the donor's lifestyle! Being a smart vampire family, they have invested in a series of blood banks, and have a steady supply delivered to them. Only Kate's presence causes Lucern to miss din-din more than once, making him so famished he considers attacking a steak in the local market. By the time Kate installs Lucern in the convention hotel, she is becoming concerned there is something very wrong with Lucern's health. From the mad escapade at the Ball for the Romance Times (with an appearance of Lady of RT herself!!) to Kate coming to terms with her popular vampire writer might just be writing biographies instead of fiction, it is typical Lynsay wit and brilliance. Lucern is sexy, deliciously grumpy and is the new wave of vampires for the 21st Century. I have always enjoyed every book Lynsay was written, but I must say she takes the gold ring with this wonderful funny book! I fell in love with Lucern, so cannot wait for the rest of the Argeneau family

This review is from: Single White Vampire (Audio CD)
Amazon only allows one review for all versions of the book. I want to give 1 star to the $70 audio CD version (LOL, $70). ZERO stars to the preloaded audio player version (what a horrible idea, it has at least 5 fatal flaws IMO). I do want to give 5 stars to the MP3 version and the paperback.I love this Argeneau series. It's hilarious and there's lots of action. I own all the paperbacks. So glad to see that they finally released it a third one as MP3. If the publisher reads this - hi there, keep up the good work. If you release MP3 CD versions of the other 11 books in the series, under $20, I'll buy them, promise.

Lynsay Sands is Incredible,

This review is from: Single White Vampire (Mass Market Paperback)
This whole series just gets better, I truly love how she incorporates her characters in all her books but writes them independently...if you start the series at book 3 your not lost. I hated turning the last page as the characters truly come to life and the world you find yourself in is believable and a true escape.
