Finished book 4 this morning and I just want to say how happy I am that the author provided a heroine that represented big girls and real women. Heather had a career, owned a home, had a daughter, rocked a size 12, and questioned everything. And even though she wasn't a kick ass M16 like Emma she knew how to use a gun and was prepared to take care of her own. Like the other vampire stories there was the struggle of how to deal with a mortal/undead relationship but unlike the other books in the series the acceptence didn't happen over night. Which made it more real. Or as real as a vampire love story can be. Jean-Luc was funny and very caring. Loved the Star Trak references to his name. Another quick fun read by Kerrelyn Sparks. Love at Stake is definately a fun and light hearted series to help perk up your mood.
