Better Off Dead:
New Adult Paranormal Romance
What if your fiancé turns out to be a werewolf, and worse, his creature-of-the-night girlfriend is trying to kill you?
Lucy Hart, eighteen-year-old queen bee and captain of the cheer squad, faces just that. She loses everything—money, social status, and even her home—when her father is arrested for tax evasion and immigrant slave trafficking. Reduced to flipping burgers, she plots to get her old life back by blackmailing her father’s slime ball lawyer and scheming her way into a gig pretending to be a rich young man’s “fiancée.”
The pay: enough money to let her write her own future. The bad news: the guy is a condescending pain in the butt.
In no time at all Lucy finds herself fighting for her life as her faux fiancé’s vampire girlfriend tries to slaughter her, and on top of that, getting royally grossed out by her own spanking new paranormal ability: necromancy. Yet somehow, while she gets back her life and kicks vampire butt, she also manages to fall in love/lust with her fake fiancé.
Min's Vampire:
One night turned into forever…
Min thought her biggest problem was the soulless vampire she’d captured with magic and made into her personal sex slave for the night.
That was until her comatose mother’s most deadly secret threatened to destroy them all. So much of what she remembers is a lie and one she trusts completely and loves deeply is the reason why.
Can she save the ones she loves—and herself—when the Queen of Air and Darkness comes calling.

A very good story to get lost in.
As I read this book, I felt that I was there. I hated to put it down. I liked not having all the bloody gore in detail. Just the romance.

Not much stood out. Can't
These 2 stories are unrelated.
1st story is 1st installment of a series. The 2nd installment for that series is available, but it leaves you with a cliffhanger and NO ENDING! There is NO 3rd installment to give an ending. 👎
2nd story in this box set is a stand alone novel.
I already reviewed the 1st story of this box set after reading the second in that series.
I came back to read the second story in the box set. Make sense?
To confused you further, the first story in this boxed set was previously released as Last Rites by Mercy Walker.
Can't put my finger on it, but there was definitely something lacking in this little story. It starts off steamy, then begins to fizzle. There are unanswered issues concerning the main characters reading each other's minds.?????
Toward the end, I actually skimmed through pages till I reached the big finish. Best part of story. If you have nothing else to read, this is an option. First story in boxed set didn't thrill me either. Perhaps I am not a fan of the Author. I know a lot of work and hours go into writing. I don't want to disrespect the process. I don't like to slam an Author. I am sure she has fans and people whom enjoy her stories. I'm just not on that list. I'm probably a bit jaded due to her books being newly edited and re-released under different titles and author names.

October 23, 2020Vampires can be a pain in the butt! You’ve been warned.
Sexy? Sure. Hard to kill and useful as an ally? Yep. But what they don’t tell you is how ridiculously high maintenance they are. When they’re not trying to seduce, charm or kill you, they’re trying to eat you. Okay, some of that doesn’t sound that bad.
Okay, go ahead and download this hot little boxed set and find out for yourself. Vampires Boxed Set contains Better Off Dead, Min's Vampire and Claimed Bear. Keep a bucket of ice and some chocolate handy. Suspense, thrills, romance, shifters, werewolves, witches—VAMPIRES—and laugh out loud humor.
Go on, scroll down and CLICK your way into one hell of a wild, crazy ride.

Pros - There are two books in this set. They are both well written and very interesting. I really enjoyed both stories. Even though I have few Cons to this set, I can honestly say, I really did enjoy the books.
Cons - I was under the assumtion that there was one story with 2 books involved, like the whole or 1-3 books in a series.
Cons - The first book by Alice Bello was a good story but it's rated as an Adult Paranormal Romance. All the romance in this book was rated PG. It was a fun read, but not very racy. The second book, Min's Vampire was a good spicy read and I really did enjoy it.
Cons - Now I have to go and find the next book in the Lucy Hart, Deathdealer series. Wah Wah Wah. LOL
