The Vampire Stalker is a wonderfully unique read with romance, humour and mystery.

Amy is definitely relate-able to us book lovers. I mean we all have crushes on fictional characters every now and then don't we? I also really liked her personality; she is caring, kind and selfless. This is what I look for in a heroine - I'm not a fan of the sarcastic, snark-y type.

The romance between Amy and Alexander was sweet, and not at all rushed. As Amy learns more about Alexander she begins to separate him for the character she read about in the books to the person he really is. The development of their relationship was slow burning and really enjoyable to read about.

The characters were all very likeable, I loved getting to know them and was sad to leave them behind when the book came to a finish.

If you're looking for a quick, light, fun, read I definitely recommend The Vampire Stalker!

"Did you kick their butts?"
He frowned. "The buttocks are among the least sensitive places to hit someone."
I laughed. "It's a figure of speech."
"To kick butts. Interesting.”
