On Tuesday, I only had two short chapters left in my work book, so I brought it home to finish reading it. The book was Wait Till Your Vampire Gets Home by Michele Bardsley, and it's part of her "Broken Heart" series.
Libby Monroe and her parents are paranormal researchers. When they hear rumors of paranormal activity in Broken Heart, OK, they go to investigate. Libby gets separated from her parents, menaced by a werewolf, saved by a vampire, threatened by another vampire, saved by a zombie, and caught in the middle of a battle between dragons. Before dying, one of the vampires gives her powers to Libby.
Although shaken by her encounter, Libby can't help but be attracted to Ralph, the charming vampire who saved her. Now, however, she is not allowed to leave Broken Heart until the Council can decide what to do with her, she's fascinated by fire, and the second dragon is keen on killing her to steal the dragon powers Libby has been given.
To compound things, Ralph is a single father, Libby isn't sure where her parents are, and the entire town of Broken Heart is under siege.
I describe these books as paranormal-lite; they're fun and lighthearted, although they fall short of being pure fluff. If you're in the mood for an amusing, quick read, I recommend this series.
Four stars:
★★★★
