Book #2 in the Argeneau Vampires series.
From back cover:
True Love: Good from the first bite...
Etienne Argeneau's three hundred years of bachelorhood were at an end. Either that, or he'd be forever alone. He could only "turn" one human in his lifetime, and most of his kind reserved that power for creating a life mate. If he turned the wrong woman...But what choice did he have? He had to save Rachel Garrett. He didn't know her very well, but the beautiful coroner had saved his life. To save hers he would make her immortal.
...To the Last
Rachel Garrett awoke surprised. All she'd wanted was to get off the night shift at the morgue; now here she was staggering to her feet naked and in a strange place. But everything would be all right. She'd just make like a bat out of-- Then she saw the man of her dreams emerging from his...coffin? And the look in his bright silver eyes said they'd be spending a lot of time together. She just hoped he tasted as good as he looked.

This is such a good series! I really enjoy the combination of humor, love and suspense. Mix that in with hot love scenes and vampires and it's wonderful! :-)
I am saving this one for Flossie771 who enjoys paranormal romance, too!

Congrats on winning the sweepstake!
Received in the Hallowe'en sweepstake along with chocolate and a necklace. Thank you so much!
My first foray into the world of vampire romance. I have to say that I wasn't entirely convinced; this was due mainly to a) poor editing; b) enduring squick at the non-consensual vampire-turning. I do appreciate that the poor hero faced a rather difficult choice, but I'd have appreciated the narrative addressing this with greater attention rather than skipping straight to the unresolved sexual tension. (Also the resolved sort.) And the quasi-date-rape stuff was rather nasty, too.
All that said, it was a compelling story, and I raced through it. And it was hilarious in parts - particularly the sequence with the police at the end. I don't know. I wanted to like it, it being a sweepstake prize and all, but it kept throwing me off. A pity.

The idea of this book sounded amusing enough, in short, Rachel accidentally becomes a vampire after saving Etienne from being staked, she then has to adjust to life as a vampire, cope with his family as well as surviving being kidnapped by Etienne's homicidal stalker. I know its a fantasy novel but I do expect it to make me "believe" while I'm reading...I didn't!
There was so much scope in this story but it was left untapped, just when I thought things were picking up, the story turned cheesy, or repetitive & even worse, in some cases, embarassingly bad (in particular one very weird sex scene involving thoughts of biting sausages!)
I didn't care about the characters & their relationship wasn't convincing, I guess they weren't my kinda vampire....they couldn't even over power Pudge!
It was okay I guess as an easy but forgetable read & while it hasn't put me off this genre I don't have any inclination to read the rest in the series.
