Summary: Predictability Bites...
Comment: This book for the record, was not as good as A Quick Bite, but better than Love Bites. I struggled with the notion of giving this book a three star but rejected it, based on the fact that I have given many better books than this a three star. Still this isn't quite as bad as the other books I have given a two star...so 2 1/2 stars, really. Here, we once again re-visit the Argeneau vampire series. This time, grumpy Lucern gets his turn to to find a human chick who can't read his mind to fall in love with and then turn into a vampire. Predictabiltiy bites. Kate is everything a man would want in an eternity mate. She is fiesty, indespendant, and sexy... She is good natured even when dealing with tempermental Lucern. Kate is an editor for the romance novels Luc writes. But really they aren't novels, the are historical novels because they tell what has really happened in his family. Kate is a little dense at times and it takes her WAY too long to figure out that Luc is a vamp. This book is more comedic than Love Bites and there are very funny, well played scenes here. However, in between those funny, well played scenes are a lot of boring filler pages. We never truly grasp what is so special about Kate that in four hundred plus years, she stands out as THE ONE. And we never truly understand why Kate falls for grumpy nosed Lucern. Still, I like this family. I like the comic portions of these books. The sex scenes are pretty boring, and there are tons of repetitive things that happen in each of the first three books. Still, one could pass the time in many worse ways than to read this book. I know that this is a lighthearted series but it could benefit from some more depth to the characters, and some variances in plot elements. Other than that, Ms Sands can write some stellar moments into a book and there are little snippets of this story I probably won't forget easily.

Summary: Hilarious and sweet
Comment: Lucern Argeneau just wants to be left alone. After 600 years he's bored with life and living and is just muddling through. He's a successful author, but even that doesn't bring him any real joy -- just helps pass the time.
Then enters his editor, Kate, who thrusts herself into his life when he refuses to help market his books. Kate is recently promoted and wants to maintain her position, but to do that, she needs to get her most popular author to sign up for some publicity engagements. Just one book signing would make her happy. But Lucern is known as a recluse and when he refuses to answer written requests with more than one word (No) or give her his phone number, she has no choice but to show up on his doorstep.
From that point on begins a series of hilarious events as Lucern tries to fight his attraction to his new editor and keep secret the fact that he is a vampire and the vampire romances he's been penning are more fact than fiction.
This is the first book published in the Argeneau Vampire series, but chronologically, comes third. Of the 8 books out so far, this is my favorite. Lucern's brooding, serious nature was irresistible to me and I loved watching his personality come alive with Kate's influence.
I highly recommend this book, as well as the rest of the series.

Summary: Lucern's Lifemate
Comment: Single White Vampire is yet another mindblowing Lynsay Sands book. Lucern is being annoyed but his new editor to do some publicity but can hardly do TV when he needs blood, avoids sunlight and of course doesn't age. How long can he keep his new publisher and her co-workers in the dark? And how long can he deny his attraction to her a thirst he hasn't felt for centuries.
Lynsay Sands does it again.

Summary: BETTER THAN PROZAC....
Comment: This is the most side spliting humor and good vamp series I have ever read. Do not Miss The Argeneau Vampires @ friends. I sometimes wonder If I am disturbing my neighbors with my late at night Laughter that seems to come from Nowhere... A Must Read as are all of Lindsay Sands books.
