Your Coffin or Mine by Jacklyn Hyde
5.0

I absolutely LOVED this book! I cannot believe that this Jacklyn Hyde's debut novel, because it sure doesn't seem like it. This was an amazing paranormal romance and I can't stop thinking about it. First of all, I love the cover! It's gorgeous and really encapsulates exactly what the book is about and what makes it great. I also loved that the author added a playlist at the beginning of the book. I always appreciate when authors do this. The chemistry between Vlad and Aubrey was palpable and just so HOT. A vampire who is possessive and obsessed with his girl, and is not afraid to get spicy with her? YES PLEASE. I also loved just how laugh out loud funny this is. There were so many hilarious moments, especially the banter between Vlad and Doyle, his werewolf bestie. Another thing I loved was that there was plus size rep with Aubrey but it didn't feel over the top or like that's ALL she was. I loved this about her! I cannot say enough good things about this book and definitely think you should read it! I can't wait for the next book! A HUGE thank you to Jacklyn Hyde for the ARC of this amazing book! 

My fave quotes:

“What is his problem?”
“Alphabetically or categorically?” he deadpans. “Ummm.”

“You’re being dramatic.”
“Doyle, there’s enough garlic in that dish to kill every vampire in Europe.”
He crosses his arms over his chest and lifts a brow. “You are the only vampire in Europe.” 
“Exactly what I just fucking said.”

“I will unalive him.”
Doyle lets out a bark of laughter. “You have got to stay off social media. Unalive? Who even are you?”
