CLICK TO PURCHASE! So, what’s a girl to do when she needs to celebrate one year of being one of the undead? Dovey is in a funk, she’s desperately hungry all the time and moody. When she spies a woman in need, she grabs all her self control and turns the dying woman into a vampire. Now, to get help. Her husband is out of town so there is only the stuffy vampire, Daniel left. Daniel is not too happy about keeping the young lady in his house, but with Dovey’s changing moods he is bound to help out. If only the lavender eyed lady wasn’t so delicious. He’s gotten over the sex thing and as the new King of the Vampires, there’s not much place for a woman. And she talks like something out of My Fair Lady! And Daniel ain’t no Henry Higgins!

I did like this story. It’s funny, cute and the characters are wonderfully written. Lizzie T. Leaf always gives her readers a fun, adventurous story that keeps the reader entertained. I especially enjoyed the play on My Fair Lady. And when the heroine tells Dovey she’s pregnant, that was a hoot. I enjoyed the interaction between the hero and heroine and the love scenes were hot and emotional. Daniel is very much a Professor Higgins type of person and it was wonderful how he finally realizes his feelings for Billie Joe. Although there are a lot of laughs in this story, it is a powerful read with a romance that is intense and sizzling. If you’ve never read a story by this talented author, I would strongly suggest you get on it right away. You will not be disappointed at all.
