First Impressions
Bad Luck Vampire is the most recent release for the βArgeneauβ series. I had such a blast with this book and while it wasnβt a perfect it was such fun to read through it. I really was intrigued to see what would be delivered on this one. Especially with this sexy as all get out cover. I just knew that I was in for a treat and it definitely was a wonderful story that I could easily get behind. This is a story that will have the perfect blend of spooky vibes with well balanced laughter. I love seeing how well this story was written in many regards and the moments that entertainined from beginning to end. We were introduced to some new characters that were so fun to read. This also has a set up of a match that doesnβt start at first, but how it evolves was quite unique, I just feel like this book could have used another 50 pages or so to the relationship building aspects to the story. It just felt a bit too rush in the end or this book would have had a five star rating attached to it. I do think that this book will appeal to fans of the Argeneau series or just a fun vampire romance that has a bit lighter but sexy vibes to it.
Summary
The setup of the story is that our heroine, Sophie, ends up on a bad date who gets a bit too forward than he should. Two enforcers for Lucien Argeneau stop the attack and keep Sophie safe. And they are brothers. But one invites her as his date to his brothers wedding. Sophie feeling grateful for the rescue of sorts, agrees to the wedding date. But her date being the best man isnβt able to be by her side, and she is then brought to the side of her lifemateβ¦.broody and reserved Alasdair who has four Scottish uncles who are charming and devilish and a twin brother that has more voice but she is more drawn to the quiet one, the one that pierces her heart deeply with one look. And when its apparent that Sophie is being focused on and that everyone around her is being attacked, Alastair and his family are determined to find out why. And during this mystery gathering, Sophie and Alastair start bonding and courting each other. But will Sophie be able to accept Alastair for who he is?
What I Loved
Bad Luck Vampire was such a fun story and I had a blast with this one. It kept me on my toes all the way through. There is something unique about the writing style of Lynsay Sands. Its the way that she is able to draw you into a story with a perfect balance of atmospheric vibes and humor that work in tandem together. We are also introduced to some new characters and I really am curious to see where the author is going with this bunch and would love for these Scottish uncles especially to find their mates. I would find that so entertaining. Alastair makes for a dreamboat in this book. I love how deliberate he is in his courting of Sophie despite the help from his twin and uncles. And when the danger elements come into play, well that was really interesting. I found that it really added some more dimension to what the title of the story actually conveys. The romance that is developed between the hero and heroine was quite interesting. There is some powerful chemistry between them and I really appreciated how compelling their connection is drawn in the story. You are instantly captivated by these two and their bond to each other. And all the laughs in this book. I honestly couldnβt stop laughingβ¦.to the point of pain. That was how well done the humor was in this story.
What I Struggled With
My issue was the ending. It felt way too rushed and I also felt like the romance just didnβt have enough connection to it. It just felt like they needed so much more time than they received. I really loved this book and it just felt like they needed a bit more focus to them. I fell very hard for this couple and it just didnβt quite get executed all the way.
Overall View
Bad Luck Vampire is a sexy romp of a vampire romance that is bound to delight your emotions from beginning to end. Its a story of mystery, boundless laughs, and a stunning chemistry to hold your attention captive!
