SOMETIMES LOVE IS A MATTER

Sierra Brennan can inherit her great-uncle's historic Chicago townhouse under one condition: She must live there for thirty consecutive days. What could possibly go wrong? As a writer and a ghost whisperer, Sierra has a vast imagination and a brave spirit. But not even she is prepared for the gorgeous—and naked—vampire who greets her at the door.

OF LIFE AND UN-DEATH

Ronan McCoy has spent the past century waiting to come home…to this house. The presence of the beautiful, brazen Sierra is one complication he doesn't expect. The other is Hal, a dangerous ghost and original member of Al Capone's gang who's dead-set on revenge. What is a formerly indentured vampire supposed to do to get a moment's peace? All he knows for sure is that he must protect Sierra from Hal. But once he has her in his arms, can he ever let her go? Life—and love—is becoming stranger than fiction for Sierra…and more delicious than she and Ronan could have ever imagined... in Love Your Entity.

"Like a dose of humor with your vampire romance? Cat Devon's series is for you…Sinfully delicious."—RT Book Reviews

I enjoyed this quite a bit. It was a fun and fluffy paranormal romance which took place on Chicago. Like many books set in my hometown I tried to figure out where this took place. But the story centered on the house that was being inherited. With its ties to Capone era gangsters and escape tunnels it could have been in any number of areas of the city.

But I found the story engrossing and quick to read.

I am sending this to my paranormal Devils secret Santa partner.

I am sending this to my secret Santa for the paranormal Devils group.

Santa brought me this book and it sounds great! Thank you nimrodiel :) Looks like a wonderful choice for the Paranormal Devils Secret Santa!

I finished this fun book February 22, 2017. I read it as part of the BookObsessed For the Love of Books Readathon. A good choice for February! Thanks, nim, for sending this to me :)

Sent to a BookObsessed member for our Paranormal Devils book exchange group. :)

Received in the mail from Lemonitsa. Mom is going to love this one as she just read the first two in the series. Thanks.

Mom and I are both finished with this one, so we are adding it to Emmejo's Otherworldly Bookbox.

This book rode to the end of the Otherworldly Book box.

I'm giving up on this one. Although I love the setting of the doubbly-haunted (by dueling ghosts!) house, and some of the side characters are interesting, I don't like the author's writing style. It feels very amateur and stilted, with events and conversations obviously constructed rather than happening naturally.

Hopefully it finds the next reader in a more tolerant mood, since it obviously has had a number of happy readers in the past!

One of the starter books for the Vampire Bookbox

I'm claiming this book from the Vampire bookbox; sounds rather fun!

Later: The premise is nicely goofy, with "ghost whisperer" Sierra and sexy vampire Ronan striking up a relationship amid the haunted-by-gangster-ghosts situation. Oh, and the various rules about vampires and ghosts and whatnot; among other things, the "vampire bond" that can only be broken by sleeping with the vampire (or so Sierra is told!). Manipulative storyline much? I can't say that I loved it, but it had some very entertaining moments!

I left this book in the Little Free Library on this beautiful day; hope someone enjoys it!
