2. Book Review of Tall, Dark & Fangsome by Michelle Rowen

The blurb:
Sarah Dearly's vampire life is not all B-positive cocktails. A curse made her a nightwalker, the most vicious vamp there is; the charm she wears to curb her deadly tendencies is losing its juice; and a hunter from hell is turning up the heat. Gideon Chase will kill the ones she loves most if she doesn't obey his orders. That includes breaking up with master vampire Thierry and turning Gideon into an immortal vamp so he can escape a doom of eternal hellfire.

Making things worse are Sarah's growing feelings for Gideon, a bad boy who keeps showing a vulnerable side. . .but is it for real? Will Sarah's dark side take over? Or can she cure herself of the nightwalker curse in time to stop Gideon and finally live happily ever after with Thierry. . .forever?

Review:
Lighthearted and fun, Tall, Dark & Fangsome effectively mixes romance with vampire paranormal action. It's my first time to read any of the Immorality Bites series and I found the book to be an enjoyable read. The vampires and the slayers are entertaining and the plot full of twists. This series isn't as graphic or gory as some of the other vampire series - which I liked. Overall, a fun escape!

Publisher: Forever (September 1, 2009), 352 pages.
Review copy provided by the publisher.

Thanks so much to Anna and Hatchette Book Group for the review opportunity!

My hero has the power to go back into time or the power to change into something cool.

Ooh, I'm the first one. I love when that happens (not that it means anything, probably makes my chances worst, because when is '1' ever picked?). Anyway, this sounds really cute, count me it.

I love the TV Series, The Charmed Ones. Each of the three "good" witches has a supernatural power. I really like the one that freezes people in time.

I am a huge twilight fan and Edward has so many powers. He is super fast, strong, has supersonic hearing and is beyond handsome!

I have to say that one of my favorites is "Angel". David Boreanaz is fine, quite fine. He brought sex appeal and humor to the role, and I watch the show just about every day in syndication! I also loved Vincent from the TV show "Beauty and the Beast". Ron Perlman was awesome! gcwhiskas at aol dot com

Please enter me. Thanks for the chance. My fav heroine with supernaturals powers is psychic Sookie Stackhouse from Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire Series.

Fun question! I'm a Buffy fan, but somehow it was always Faith that I ended up rooting for!

My favorite character is Anita Blake from the Laurell Hamilton books. Raising zombies sounds kind of cool to me.

I love Harry Potter. The whole idea of having magical abilities is fascinating to me! I'd also love to borrow that invisibility cloak one day...

Sabine of the Sorceri, Queen of Illusions in Kresley Cole's Kiss of a Demon King. She can create any illusion!

For TV, I will have to agree with the previous posters -- Angel (Love Him!). For books, I will go with Eric from the Sookie Stackhouse novels.

I don't know why, but I've always loved Superman! Just the idea of a strong, handsome hero with super powers who could also fly to other planets & dimensions seemed awfully cool!
