Rating: Summary: Lyndsay Sands " Love Bites" an excellent read! Review: This book had it all, a great heroine, and hunky hero, hot steamy attraction, believable action when they meet, and of course, when he saves her, and she him! Great read all the way around!
Rating: Summary: Terrible book Review: This book is like a bad Danielle Steele novel with vampires. A completely moronic story and a huge waste of time!
Rating: Summary: Good & Cute Review: I really enjoyed the story of the reclusive vampire and the his cute editor. I prefer darker vampire romance, but still enjoyed this one as well. It was cute...I plan to buy the next installment by Lynsay Sands.
Rating: Summary: A New (Refreshing) Spin On A Dark Subject Review: Another winner for Lynsay Sands! I'm beginning to believe that Ms. Sands can write anything she puts her mind to with outstanding (and hilarious) results. "Single White Vampire" is a wonderful and completely satirical romance filled with fun and gobs of humor. Taking dark paranormal subjects to bright new heights, Lynsay shows us what might happen to a 612 year old vampire who's simply minding his own business and trying to make a 'living', just like the rest of us poor schmucks . . . (Ahem) Well, maybe not JUST like the rest of us. Even if you don't like vampires, it's hard not to love Lucern, a brooding vampire who has wearied of his lonely existence but finds modern women far too independent and bold for his discerning . . . um, tastes. Enter Kate C. Leever, his new editor and an extremely bold creature, who has taken the biographical accounts of how some of his family members found mates and had the audacity to publish them as (EGADS!) 'paranormal romantic fiction'. With the help of Lucern's own mother, Kate finagles a reluctant 'Luc' into promoting his already wildly popular books by doing that "R.T. thing". The "thing" he inadvertantly agrees to do is attend a romance convention filled to the gills with enthusiastic romance readers just dying (pardon the pun) to meet the dark, handsome writer. Suddenly, Luc is facing an entire week of readers, writers, dinners, awards, uproariously funny masquarades, misunderstandings, and even a bit of danger. So, what's a vampire to do??? Especially when the carton with his week's supply of blood is turned away by the hotel's front desk by mistake! Why, what any vampire turned author would do . . . turn to his editor for assistance, of course! And what delicious and hilarious assistance it is! Enjoy what is to be the first in a series of light-hearted, fun-filled stories about a family of vampires searching for blood . . . Oops! Uh, I mean, love.
Rating: Summary: One of the worst books I've read in a long time. Review: Boy when I read the reviews on this book, I wondered if I had gotten a different story. This has to be one of the worst I've read in 2003. The heroine was a fool and the hero was a pain. I saw no comedy in this book, barely registered the humor and couldn't even finish it. I finally skipped to the last few pages from the middle just so I could see what the ending was and if I wanted to try to finish it. Nope, ended up throwing the book in my get-rid-of-in-a-hurry box. Wish I could get my money back as this was not worth the money I paid for it!
Rating: Summary: Wtf? Review: Umm..Lydnsy's vampires are screwed up-getting blood from BLOODBANKS?Going out in the sun?And what happened to all the special powers vampires are supposed to have?Lestat could kick Lucern's ass! Aside from that..tis an enjoyable read..just the way Lyndsy made her vampires ticks me off.
Rating: Summary: Oh my heavens! Review: I was laughing so hard I scared the kitten. I have not enjoyed a book this much in a while, and I read ALOT. It took me all of 7 1/2 hours to finish. I just could not stop reading it. I don't just recommend this book, I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone!
Rating: Summary: Awesome book! Review: Kate C Leever has the impossible task of convincing Lucern Argeneu to participate in his own publicity. The maddening author's one word response "No" to each of her letters makes it a little hard to believe he could be a bestselling romance novelist. Taking the bull by the horns, she journeys to Canada determined to win him over, a little bit anyway. Lucern is as sexy as his romances. Despite being surly, he blows Kate's mind. Only with his very youthful mother's help does he manage to con him into attending a RT convention, much to his own dismay. Luc is a vampire, and traveling is not something he is thrilled about. Nonetheless, he is a man of his word, and Kate is an attraction as well. Falling for her is a most unexpected complication, for both of them. ***** If this time of year has you feeling a bit down because you're supposed to be happy, but aren't, then read this book, even if you don't like those "weird" books. It will give you genuine laughs as you watch Luc act like a six hundred year old little boy and see him encounter the modern world. His reaction to Buffy alone is worth the book. There is plenty of romance, and a whole new twist on the vampire legend that is thoroughly original. May the Family Argenean Series live long and prosper. ***** Reviewed by Amanda
Rating: Summary: Silly; clunky writing; still funny and engaging Review: This book is really, really silly. If you're in the mood for goofy, silly, and light, this is a great romance novel. If you're bored by overly detailed, clunky descriptions of everyday events and clinically described love scenes, skip it. For all that, it *is* engaging, and I would read the further books in this series.
Rating: Summary: Light and Entertaining Review: Similar premise to the Tanya Huff vampire books (vampire romance author), but with more humor and less mystery. This one was a page turner and I read it in one sitting. Would like to see Ms Sands write more books featuring other members of the Argeneau vampire family.
