NADENE'S REVIEW OF LOVE BITE


 A very good start to what appears to be an exciting series. I am not a fan of gay relationships, but I was intrigued by the blurb so decided to give this story a try.  I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The sex scenes were a bit graphic and may not be suited for readers who are not fans of lesbian relationships.  It started out a bit slowly, however it picked up the pace by the third chapter.  Love Bite is a mixture of paranormal romance, action and suspense.

Love Bite is not your typical vampire story. There is no drinking of blood from veins and no love scenes between vampires. This story depicts how a single bite from a vampire can bring about major changes in the victim’s life.

The main character, Diandra was not your typical female heroine. She struggled with weight issues all her life; however she was not insecure about it. Her husband, Jonah, loved her very much and he accepted her the way she was and did not try to change her.  They had been trying to have a child for the nine years they have been married so it’s quite understandable how devastated she must have been that just as she was preparing to tell her husband the good news he was murdered.  During this time she became friends with Lisbeth who was homeless and was the one who was credited for discovering her husband’s body.  Lisbeth’s dramatic entrance in Diandra’s life brought about changes she never saw coming. Diandra helped Lisbeth to get back on her feet and Lisbeth in return helped Diandra during her grieving process. During this time a romantic bond developed between the two. 
I loved how the author portrayed Lisbeth. She was a fighter and not afraid to back down from danger. Diandra on the other hand was a bit naïve and gullible. I found it hard to believe that she actually thought her husband was able to maintain their lavish lifestyle on a cop’s salary.

The storyline was very interesting. I like the way how the friendship between the two female characters was developed however I felt that the romance between them was a bit contrived. 

Overall this was a good read and I look forward to reading the second installment.







Title is awarded 4 satin pillows.

Diandra and Lizbeth are back for the final installment of the Just One Bite series. District Attorney Giles Carson is still out for blood, and he's leaving plenty of it behind in a series of lesbian murders around the shores of Delaware, striking too close to home for Lizbeth when a face from her past becomes a target. 

Together with RaeLynn, Adrian and Eamon, the group will face unending emotion: Love, Regret, Grief, and above all, Envy. Can they stop Carson before they find themselves grieving anew? 

***This novel contains adult content, including f/f relations.*** 

Natalie Gibson's review 

Lizbeth is a vampire now, having given her consent should her life be in danger.  She is regretting having ever given that consent.  She is feeling resentment that Diandra gained so much so quickly from being turned and all she, Lizbeth, got was hassle.  As always with these two, the smallest thing escalates into a near life-changing, heart-breaking, relationship-ending fight.  Their home is filled with bickering and misunderstandings.  Once they realize the issues, they are easily solved.  No matter what the problem, Lizbeth and Dia are determined to last.

Eamon the mentor vampire who prefers life as a cat, RaeLynn the super baby, and Adrian the Wiccan with a direct link to the Goddess and amazing blood regeneration abilities are all back to help in the battle with Giles Carson that has been building for four books.  There are some new faces too.  Andrew, the skater boy hacker, and Sandra, Lizbeth's ex-lover, join the fray to varying degrees of success.

This is the final book in the Just One Bite series.  It is a satisfying ending with everyone's story being tied into a nice tidy little bow.  The book is mostly drama between the lesbian couple and training for the newbie vamps with the climax at the end that we've all been waiting for.  If you are looking for lesbian romance with a dash of paranormal, this series is for you.  I am going to keep my eyes on Kay Glass.  She improves with every piece she writes.  Each in this series is better than the last and she has something for everyone.  Her erotica is nice and spicy with the right amount of romance.  Her short stories have heart and purpose.  

I award Bite of Envy 4 satin pillows.

Bite of Envy earns 2 flames for its erotic depictions of lesbian sex, violence and adult language.
