White Lily Dreams - A Book and Garden Blog

I read this last night!

If you like the previous books in the Broken Heart Oklahoma series, you’ll love Wait till Your Vampire Gets Home, which is book 4 in the series.

In this book paranormal investigator Libby Monroe and her parents visit Broken Heart, OK after hearing reports of vampires and werewolves.

Little did they’d know what they’d find.

Vampires, werewolves, zombies, and dragons abound.

Ralph Genessa, widower and father of 2 is the vampire of the moment in this book.

If you’re looking for a fun, not too scary vampire read with a hint of romance thrown in you’ll definitely enjoy Wait Till Your Vampire Gets Home, and the rest of the books in the Broken Heart, OK series by Michelle Bardsley.

If you’d like to purchase the book or read other reviews check it out at Amazon: Wait Till Your Vampire Gets Home (Broken Heart, Oklahoma, Book 4)

If you read it, or know of other books you think I might like, leave a comment and let me know what you think.

I just finished reading Because Your Vampire Said So by Michele Bardsley, and I loved it.

I’ve read both of the previous books in the series previously (I’m the Vampire, That’s Why and Don’t Talk Back To Your Vampire) and I really enjoyed them.

It’s not very often that one sees vampires as normal, with human children to raise and protect, and I think it’s interesting to see how the different characters deal with raising their children in Broken Heart, Oklahoma, where just about the only human residents are the children of the vampires and lycanthropes that live in the town.

I also like how the series focuses on a different set of main characters each time - the familiar characters are still around, but it’s fun to “meet” the new characters, and learn more about characters that we’ve only met briefly in the previous books. We also get a chance to be with the vampires as they learn about their new abilities, and this book even managed to surprise me a little - I thought for sure Patsy couldn’t do something, and she did.

In Because Your Vampire Said So, Patsy Donahue, a 40 year old, single mother and the resident Broken Heart hairdresser - oh yeah she’s also a vampire, has to deal with a drug and alcohol addicted son while she fulfills her destiny - a destiny she doesn’t necessarily believe in.

Of course in Broken Heart, OK that destiny has to involve vampires and conflict.

The bad guys are at it again, and while Patsy helps save the city and her son, she also falls in love.

This was a light, fun read, and I read it in about 3 hours.

As I said before, I really enjoyed this book, and I’m looking forward to the next installment of the Broken Heart Series.

If you’ve read Because Your Vampire Said So, or any of Michele Bardsley’s books I’d love to know what you think about them.

I really enjoyed reading Thugs and Kisses by Sue Ann Jaffarian.

Odelia Gray is a plus size amatuer slueth who seems to get into trouble everywhere she goes.

How many people do you know who’ve gotten into a brawl at the market and end up getting whacked in the eye with a leg of lamb?

Or who attend their high school reunion only to have their high school nemesis murdered - and end up teaming up with the next most likely suspect to clear their names in this murder and solve another mystery - the disappearance of Odelia’s boss.

Thugs and Kisses is the third of the Odelia Gray mysteries, and I can’t wait to read the first two.

It’s refreshing to read about people who aren’t cookie cutter perfect, and it’s refreshing to read mysteries that deal with some of the problems that would occur if the books were real, instead of just glossing over them.

After all - how do you think you’d really feel if your friend/sister/lover/mother/father kept finding bodies and almost got killed every week.

That would definitely take a toll on the relationship, don’t you think?
