Narration Toward Books How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire (Love at Stake #1)
Nobody said love was perfect... Roman Draganesti is charming, handsome, rich...he's also a vampire. But this vampire just lost one of his fangs sinking his teeth into something he shouldn't have. Now he has one night to find a dentist before his natural healing abilities close the wound, leaving him a lop-sided eater for all eternity. Things aren't going well for Shanna Whelan, either. After witnessing a gruesome murder, she's next on the mob's hit list. And her career as a dentist appears to be on a downward spiral, because she's afraid of blood. When Roman rescues her from an assassination attempt, she wonders if she's found the one man who can keep her alive. Though the attraction between them is immediate and hot, can Shanna conquer her fear of blood to fix Roman's fang? And if she does, what will prevent Roman from using his fangs on her?Details Epithetical Books How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire (Love at Stake #1)

Reviewed for THC Reviews"4.5 stars" I've been following a few tried and true paranormal vampire romance series, but haven't read any new ones in a while. I was hoping to liven things up with a whole new group of vamps, and that's exactly what happened with How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire. The Love at Stake series has a slightly different mythology than the other series I've been reading, plus an added dose of humor that isn't often found in the paranormal sub-genre. Kerrelyn Sparks uses aI just...I just...I just can't. I tried.
Okay boys and mostly girls - let's play a new drinking game, shall we? Every time Roman, the hero of the story says, 'God's blood,' take a shot! Note to self: Make out last will and testament before I die of alcohol poisoning!Really, how can this be so popular? I listened to this on audio, big mistake I think, because it just draws attention to the dialog so much more. Usually, that's a good thing, but in this case, not so much! At one time near the beginning, I counted 6-7 times Roman says
Funny, I snickered through out the book. Light and funny, not anything too deep. Great romance and characters some in Kilts.
So Roman isn't your typical suave and sophisticated vampire, in fact he's more of a geeky scientist, but since that's enabled him to create a synthetic blood that vampires can live off instead of munching on humans it's not really a bad thing. His life starts to get complicated when he bites into something he shouldn't have and accidentally pulls out one of his fangs. If he doesn't get it re-implanted before his vampire healing kicks in then he'll forever be known as a one-fanged-wonder and
OMG! This book was great, totally hilarious and sweet. I was laughing really hard the whole time while reading it. There were so many funny situations... I must say that Kerrelyn Spark has an amazing imagination and a great writing style. I loved this book. It has interesting characters and situations, good plot lines. I couldn't put it down.Roman was the sweetest hero, and I just needed to see his HEA, he totally deserved to have a happy ending. He was so tormented. I can't wait to read the
1 star Okeey, so this was a disappointment... I really hoped this would be interesting, but it ended up being completely flat.The poor centuries old vampire who was a monk and still believes in god, ya da ya da... Got real tired, real fast. The whole thing about vampires being "creatures from hell" too. One thing is them being Buffy-like, but now this? come ON. have mercy on ME. The only cool thing in this book was how the main character is a vampire scientist! Now that I enjoyed, but the rest,
