Originally reviewed fir Tea and Book

Ok, I admit it, Sara Humphreys could make rocks and fallen trees sexy.. I am the first to say I don't enjoy the "traditional" Vampire stories. You know with sires and covens, makers and such. But a good author can destroy all preconceptions. Vampire Trouble is book two in her Dead in the City ( also known as Vampires in NYC) Series. In book one, Tall, Dark and Vampire, I tumbled into love and in book two, Vampire Trouble, I just kept falling.

Ok, I admit it, Sara Humphreys could make rocks and fallen trees sexy.. I am the first to say I don't enjoy the "traditional" Vampire stories. You know with sires and covens, makers and such. But a good author can destroy all preconceptions. Vampire Trouble is book two in her Dead in the City ( also known as Vampires in NYC) Series. In book one, Tall, Dark and Vampire, I tumbled into love and in book two, Vampire Trouble, I just kept falling.

Olivia and Doug have become co-czars of New York. Their bloodmating has caused some concern in the supernatural world. The ability to Daywalk is bad enough but Olivia's pregnancy has everyone wondering. The last thing she needs is a pack of rogue werewolves wandering around New York while the leaders of the Supernatural world are all in a conclave in Europe assessing her situation. Oh and a wayward prodigy who needs to break out for a while.

Maya is a young Vampire, she was turned just five years ago, she was brutally assaulted and almost died before Olivia was able to turn her. While she is grateful to be alive, so to speak, she keeps reliving her assault in her nightmares. Consequently she hunts only the type of man who destroyed her. Teasing them, promising them more, before she feeds, rearranges their memories and then moves on. It's about the control. But even that isn't enough anymore..She is feeling hemmed in and needs a reprieve from the coven. Accepting a bartending job at the strip joint of a rather skeavy vampire, of course he is he owns a strip joint. Everything might be ok except she seems to have acquired a bodyguard and an admirer. The bodyguard is the oh so sexy Shane, a guard for the czars. And the admirer is the second son of the leader of the werewolves. Of course nothing is ever what it seems.

Shane Quesada is over four centuries old and lives for his duty and honor but lately Olivia's pretty little bartender has garnered his attention. When he is pulled into her dreamscape Shane realizes that it is something more than mere attraction and when he is allowed that first taste, he realizes that she is his bloodmate.. confused that he should have a bloidmate and worried about how it will affect his duty, Shane is given a temporary solution, become Maya's bodyguard. But when his protection of Maya causes what could be an inner species event, everything goes crazy.

This book was jammed packed..

Maya has no memory of her past and her meeting with the werewolves causes some sort of reaction inside her. She has absolutely no idea why she has become a target. What do they want from her?
Then of course us the oh so sexy Shane.. how can she ever accept such a warrior in her life? Except that even Maya sees that with her he is a gentle giant.
What can Maya and Shane accomplish if they are excited from New York?
We also get to see Boris and Lillian from the Amoveo world. We meet the sexy werewolf Julian, we hear about Asmodeous and various and assorted supernatural are mentioned. It seems th a Ms. Humphreys is starting to bring her worlds together.

I can't wait to see what she has coming up next!

This was a I can't put this book down experience..So yeah I recommend it! For Me this was one if those rare Five Plus Star review

Fast paced and full of action, love and humour, this book never has a dull moment and I was soon so caught up in the story that it was difficult to put the book down in order to sleep. The world building and descriptive nature brings it all to life so vividly, that my imagination easily took over and I could see the story in my mind clearly as it all unfolded.
The chemistry between Shane and Maya is so evident, and I loved reading about them both overcoming their issues and realising that they w ...more

Sara has asked for an honest review through NetGalley.
Well,Sara's books just keep getting better and better. There are 320 pages to this story but it reads like a novella and ends too soon. Maya has lost her past. Olivia turned her and helps as much as she can. Shane has been turned for 400 years and they are thrown when they meet in the Dreamscape. It takes them awhile to fit and then the Wolves plan trouble while the leaders are together at a meeting. There are some pretty deep actions and sce ...more

Vampires, Weres... from New York City to the Louisiana Bayou! Oh My!

VAMPIRE TROUBLE by Sara Humphreys in a very enjoyable, spicy paranormal romance! It is the second book in her Dead in the City series. It can easily be read as a standalone as Sara fills in everything you need to know to enjoy it by itself. However, I would recommend reading the series in order as there are interconnected characters and Dead in the City #1, TALL, DARK and VAMPIRE, was such a fantastic read also!

I read Vampire Trouble by Sara Humphreys recently and well she's done it again! This is Maya & Shane's story we met them in the first book. I will admit I was not sure how I felt about Maya. She seemed selfish. But I got to know Maya,she is so much more. She is a kickass warrior,a sister to her coven members and more. As always when you read any of Sara's books. She takes you on a journey. I loved reading Maya and Shane's story. There are interesting developments that keep you turning the pages. ...more

I was a little worried about this story when I found out this was Maya's story. In the first Dead in the City book I thought she was a brat. But oh my goodness! This book was great. Maya was not what I expected. She turned out to be a total badass. And Shane knew exactly what she needed to fight her demons and find herself. I loved this story. It had great action and an even greater romance. I really liked seeing characters from previous books by Sara Humphreys as well. It was really nice to cat ...more

This was a fantastic continuation from Tall, Dark, and Vampire. I was very happy to read Maya's and Shane's story and the introduction to new characters was flawless on the author's part.
And of course, now I'm drumming my fingers on the desk waiting patiently *ha* for the next in the series!

*to get the most out of each story, please consider reading them in order* ...more
