Count Off Challenge
I really liked it. I loved Ian in the other books and wanted him to get his HEA, so, honestly, I think I would have liked this book regardless.Briansgirl "Master Book Sale Huntress" wrote: "Christine, how did you like All I want for Christmas is a Vampire? I just ordered that off PBS recently and waiting for it to arrive."
I've not read the series at all. It's the only book in that series I have. I just read the description and it sounded interesting.

If you haven't read the earlier books, you might be a bit confused about who's who. Kerrelyn tries to do a good job to explain everyone, but some of it gets lost, especially during the Christmas party. But if you don't worry about understanding the background, you should be fine.Briansgirl "Master Book Sale Huntress" wrote: "I've not read the series at all. It's the only book in that series I have.
