A Bite to Remember by Lynsay Sands

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rule #1: Never get involved with someone who won’t be there for you when the sun comes up.

Once bitten, twice shy, and sexy PI Jackie Morrisey wasn’t going there again. Vincent Argeneau may be the hottest guy she’s ever met, living or dead, but she’s here to stop a killer from turning this vampire into dust, not to jump into bed with him.

Rule #2: Never kiss a vampire…it can be a pain in the neck.

Okay, so Vincent’s had four hundred years to perfect his kissing skills, and he does look rather tempting when he runs around the house shirtless. He’s also charming, protective…did we mention he can kiss? Jackie needs to be on her guard, or else she’ll have to come up with a new rule: If you’re going to fall in love with a vampire, make sure it’s a bite to remember.

The heroine: Jackie Morrisey – she is a private investigator, who is hired by Bastien Argeneau to work with Vincent to help find the cause of problems he is having with his production company. Jackie knows about immortals because she had a bad relationship with one in the past and he controlled her so she is gun-shy when it comes to them, and the only one she trusts is Bastien. Jackie and her partner Tiny plan to look into the problem.

The Hero: Vincent Argeneau – he is an immortal who is over 400 years old. He is cousin to Bastien and they were very close (like brothers) at one point. He is an actor since he met Shakespeare and has bought his own production company which had to shut down production on Dracula the musical due to the sabotage he is experiencing.

The Story: Vincent isn’t too happy to know that the PI helping him to track down the saboteur hurting his company is mortal and a girl. Though Bastien assures him that she knows about immortals and is the best in the business. Jackie hears him and put her on the offensive, so they didn’t get off to a great start.

Vincent is the kind of guy that will do almost anything for his friends and family. He is charming, funny and a sexy beast who knows how to flirt with the ladies. He has something in his genetics that doesn’t allow him to feed from bagged blood, so he feeds directly from mortals. He is good at taking control of them, so they enjoy the experience, and he removes the memories of him when he is done.

This story was told in dual points of view via solo narration and was narrated by Victoria McGee. She has a soft, somewhat breathy voice and is a good narrator. I hate solo narration, but she does a pretty good job with both male and female voices. I really loved Vincent in the last book, so I couldn’t wait to listen to this one. Though I have to admit, he wasn’t nearly as funny in this book as he was in the last. Though he does something in this book that is utterly selfless which jeopardizes his own future. So my love of him in the last book was utterly justified.
