A Vampire Named Allison
Life in West Haven is far from ordinary.
Tired of the tales of vampires, werewolves, and fairies, and her part in them, Allison Petrovsky struggles to find her place in the world of the supernatural. She longs to be normal.
With the deaths of family members and friends and a mysterious group on the rise, Allison’s boyfriend, Connor DeSalvo, is implicated in a murder. After Connor is forced to go into hiding while he struggles to prove his innocence, Allison discovers her best friend Scarlett is seemingly dead. Allison isn’t sure how much more she can handle.
Struggling to navigate the delicate relationship she has with her friends and family, Allison must also face the possibility that someone with sinister plans is stalking all of them--and not lose herself or her sanity in the process.

This book was hands down my favorite in the series so far! I only wish the next book was out because of the cliffhanger… this book kept me in the edge of my seat from start to finish. With twists and turns and character building, things are starting to fall into place for the west haven undead and I’m so excited for book 5!

Allison has been having a rough time. Many of her friends and family have been murdered, and her boyfriend Connor is being framed for the most recent murder. Connor has gone into hiding while he seeks to find a way to prove that he wasn’t guilty. It doesn’t help that Allison’s best friend Scarlet was among those killed, though in her case, it’s a bit more complicated than just her having been murdered And that is only some of what is happening in this book.
I read a review copy of this book and really enjoyed it. This is a complex fantasy series with what I feel is a rather unique approach to paranormal entities such as werewolves, vampires, and fairies. This book does deal with quite a few serious subjects, such as murder, loneliness, feelings of abandonment, depression, alcohol abuse, and suicide. So please be aware of them should such subjects be triggering for you.
There is a lot going on in this book, and while many of these themes are on the dark side, there are happy moments as well. Overall, I found the story to be entertaining, happy at some times, depressing at others, but there were good reasons behind everything that happens in this story, and I am very much looking forward to reading the next book in this series to see what will happen next.
This book did end on a rather upsetting cliffhanger, and we’ll unfortunately have to wait on the release of the next book before we learn the aftereffects and fallout from that character’s actions. Looking back, the signs for what takes place were there but it was so unexpected that I didn’t truly see the signs until the event took place. Unfortunately, I can’t go into any further detail about it without including some major spoilers. And as much as I want to talk about it, I do not want to give away anything important. I will say that if you are at all invested in these characters, the ending of this book is going to hit you where it hurts.
If you like complex fantasy novels that are loosely based on real world issues, stories about supernatural creatures, and books that are highly emotionally charged then you will want to read this book, especially if you have read the previous books in this series. If you have not yet read the previous books, I would strongly suggest that you read the previous books in this series first as you are likely to feel a bit lost and confused on a number of things if you haven't. Recommended.

Whyyyyyy??? Why did it have to end like that? Ughhh. Be forewarned that this is a cliffhanger from you know where. I knew Bishop was a punk too and was behind some things. He was trying to be a little too slick. I can't get over this ending though. I can not. I hope the next book is coming soon. This is a good book and a good series. I recommend. But still mad about the end!.

This book has a lot of colorful characters and they draw you into their story. There is a lot of action, drama suspense, love lots and lots of violence they believe in protecting the people they care about. It is the definite page turner. I would recommend it to everyone to read a terrific story.

Allison’s Story . . .
This story was not what I had been expecting. I just couldn't seem to get into it and follow what was going on, other than the impression that Allison Petrovsky was trying to find where she fit in her current existence, and all the confusion she experiences in searching for that sometimes elusive goal.

When you're constantly surrounded by supernatural and death and mystery sometimes all you need to is to feel normal. This is how Allison felt but being a vampire herself what would normal even mean? This is book four of the West Haven Undead and with an ending like that there are sure to more books in the series and I for one can't wait.
