false <![CDATA[High Stakes (Vegas Vampires, #1)]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170330667m/46481.jpg 46481 7 <b>From the <i>USA Today</i> bestselling author, a vampire-meets-girl story set in the city that never sleeps-except during daylight.</b> He's a bloodsucking freak of nature. But, unlike other politicians, Ethan Carrick is actually a nice guy. Not to mention a very hot, wealthy, casino-owning vampire. It's an election year for vampires, which means he'll first have to escape his opponent's hit men. Then he'll have to find a suitable First Lady, preferably here in Vegas. Brittany Baldizzi fits the bill. She's smart, pretty- and sweeter than a glass of diabetic O-Negative. But her protective sister Alexis steps in with a message for Ethan: Bite me. It's then that he realizes it's the sexy, no-nonsense Alexis who raises his stake. And as much as she denies it, Alexis wouldn't mind a romp in the coffin with him. But can a mere mortal, even one who risks her life for him, make a centuries-old, womanizing vampire feel something entirely new? 45600 book 1 8 2006 High Stakes (Vegas Vampires, #1) total:498|5:112|4:182|3:151|2:41|1:12| 498 1835 815 70 3 1 true false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Apr 21 11:35:01 -0700 2008 Mon Apr 21 11:35:29 -0700 2008
I didn't think the characters were strong at all. I felt almost no chemistry between Ethan and Alexis. Sure, there were some sparks, but I think Alexis flies way off the handle a little too much for my taste.

Okay, in truth the book rocked. Really rocked. In fact, up until the last two chapters, I legitimately thought the book would blow me away. Sadly enough, it didn't.
