This is one of the worst vampire book I've ever read., Nov 16 2004

This review is from: A Taste for Passion (Paperback)
The plot is boring and predictable. The description of relationship between Rana and her grandfather gave me a creep. It's like between two old lovers instead of grandfather/granddaughter. I would read this if I had no other books to read, but I would skip some of the story. If you are a fan of vampire books, you're better off reading Laurell Hamilton/Tanya Huff/Sherrilyn Kenyon.

A Great Vampire Romance!, July 11 2004
This review is from: A Taste for Passion (Paperback)
Ms. Michelle has penned a great Vampire Romatica story that was not only very sensual but had a storyline that was great fun. The characters of this story had great chemistry and Ms. Michelle managed to combine not only sensual love scenes but also humor in a story that is fasted paced. You will be loath to put this book down until the final page. I'm very careful about what vampire stories I read but I will be adding Ms. Michelle to my "must read" list immediately. Lucian is a vampire that has been looking for the reincarnation of his love Elizabeth. He knows that he will find her it's only a matter of time, or is it? He begins to loose faith when he literally brushes up against a woman leaving a cemetery and he feels something for the first time in years. Rana Sterling has just buried her beloved grandfather Jack. She is trying to come to terms with her loss when she comes across an antique dealer and finds an unusual ring that she feels compelled to buy. This purchase will change her life. Before she knows it she finds herself dreaming the most sensual and erotic dreams of her life. She can't believe it when she comes face to face with her dream lover. What she doesn't know is that her life is about to change in ways that she can't imagine but is fate going to take her away from Lucian before she realizes how much she cares for him? This was a fast paced read that was not only humorous but also sensual. This was the first time I've ever read anything by Ms. Michelle but I look forward to picking her books up again in the future. I highly recommend Ms. Michelle you won't be disappointed.

FANG-TASTIC SPICY VAMPIRE ROMANCE!, Jun 16 2004
This review is from: A Taste for Passion (Paperback)
I loved this book! I like my books explicit but if there's too much sex and not enough story, the book always falls short of my expectations. This book blends both perfectly. I connected with the hero, Lucian, AND the heroine, Rana. Lucian is one hot commodity--very sexy and appealing in a dark, broody way and Rana, after discovering that Lucian is a vampire, takes appropriate time getting on board with the idea. Lucian is very possessive, staking his claim on Rana, but never PUSHY. I like that ;+) Rana, the owner of a bookstore, is a sweet heroine--the kind of girl I'd like to call a friend. (If the heroine is a simpering ninny, I can never get past it to enjoy the story.) I like the little bit of spin on the vampire myths, also, and the supporting characters in the story are also very appealing (especially Duncan, the vampire twin of Ian--I hope he rates his own story IN PRINT soon!!) All in all, a great read--finished in two sittings and I immediately sought out all other printed books by the author, Patrice Michelle. For fans of vampire romance, this one is a must.
