Immortal For the Plot

by Lola B. Marie

Some people want to live forever for power, revenge, or world domination. Rose just wants to finish her TBR.
Reclusive, socially awkward, and dramatically under-researched, Rose has decided the only way to get through her endless stack of romance novels is to become a vampire. Immortality = infinite reading time. It’s simple math. The only problem? The vampire she finds is deeply uninterested in biting her.

At 200 years old, Anthony is completely over the whole “undead” thing. His job at the blood bank pays the bills, but otherwise, he’s just existing—until Rose stumbles into his life with her ridiculous plan. She’s determined to join the vampire ranks. He’s determined to stop her. The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to deny the chemistry between them.

But Rose’s search for immortality has drawn the attention of another vampire—one who isn’t nearly as reluctant as Anthony. As tensions rise and temptations grow, Rose will have to does she really want to disappear into a book forever, or is real life worth taking a chance on?

Immortal for the Plot is a delightfully ridiculous, unconventional vampire romance perfect for readers who love banter, chaos, chemistry, and a heroine who takes ‘doing it for the plot’ a little too seriously.

About the author

Lola B. Marie was born and raised in the Midwest. She's an avid Chiefs fan, a terribly competitive fantasy football player, and a full-time romance reader. She lives with her husband, son, dogs and cat. All the pets are boys and she doesn't mind being outnumbered. When she isn't writing or with her family, you can find her hanging at Bedpost Books, her favorite locally-owned bookstore in the Midwest. She's also usually listening to one of a hundred podcasts while drinking Dr. Pepper and eating some sort of gummy candy.

As a typical pissy Pisces, she's also a dreamer who never expected one of her dreams to come true. Writing was always something she enjoyed but she never thought she'd write something to completion. And now she's a published author. Live your dreams, kids. They're possible if you want them to be.

I swear if Lola writes it I’m reading it! I absolutely loved Rose. She’s chaotic, dramatic, and so relatable. The fact that she wants to become a vampire just to finish her TBR? Girl, same. This book had me grinning the whole time. The banter, the chemistry, the ridiculousness of it all was perfection. Lola never misses and Immortal for the Plot is officially one of my new comfort reads.

Rose is now in my top five favorite female main characters and no one can change my mind! As an avid reader, I heard myself through her so many times and had the best time on her journey. 5 stars with just enough spice for the story line. Everyone needs to read this book!

Congrats to my best friend on her third published book! I can’t wait for the world to be able to dive into this one 🫶🏼
