This was an easy read with very little angst and two strong main characters. There's bits of humour that kept it light and there was enough descriptive sex to satisfy my smut craving.
I would have liked an epilogue though.

Whew...is it hot in here or is it just me???? I loved this book! Julie was nice enough to let me borrow it, but let me say that I IMMEDIATELY ordered my own copy a few minutes ago. It is a fast-paced storyline, that I wish didn't end.
Seth is definately one of the sexiest vampires I have ever read. He all that and a bag of chips...(sigh)
I even thought he was well matched with Willow. Not once did I want to throw the book at her because she was being to stubborn...okay maybe I wanted to throw it ONE time at her...but I got over it...hee hee.
I really loved the way vampires were portrayed in this book. Their culture and customs were pretting intriguing. I can't wait to read the next in this series.
A word of warning though. This book has some VERY explict sex scenes in it. If you are offended by this...this book is not for you.

Willow needs a laugh. She just got fired from her job because her slimy boss was coming on to her and she wouldn't 'play'. So she goes out with her sister and a friend and they decide to play 'the game'. The game consists of walking up to a strange man and asking him a series of intimate personal questions. At stake? A kiss and maybe a phone number. Willow's not sure she wants to play until HE walks in. She's never reacted to a man quite like this!!
Seth is a vampire. NO, he's not dead...he's always been this way. NO, he wasn't made...he was born a vampire. He doesn't know who the gorgeous woman is who just sat in his lap...but he'd sure like to get to know her...intimately.
Their attraction is immediate and all-consuming, and that's BEFORE Seth tasted her. Now that he has, he's pretty sure she's his bloodmate, just like the legend says. Unfortunately, 1-she doesn't know what he is, 2-he's not sure he wants to tell her, and 3-if she leaves him, he'll slowly starve to death! What's a vamp to do?
The interaction between these two is hot, hot, hot. Willow's nicknames for Seth once he's outed are hilarious. A good, quick, sexy, funny read!

This book is a really HOT bit of fluff! I loved it! Its not a very "deep" book, but man, is there ever some great sex ;-)
Willow is out with her sister and a friend for a night on the town. When she sees Seth walk in the bar, she knows he is the one she wants to play "the game" with! Seth and Willow have an instant attraction, and then the real fun starts!
You see, Seth is a vampire, and Willow is very, very important to him... neither one of them knows just how important....

This was a cute and fast read about a girl named willow who indulges in a unique game of kiss and tell. It is pretty simple really, she scopes out the bar for a guy she doesn't mind kissing--she asks them boxers or briefs and if she guessed correctly they get a kiss and her number. Commando always scores a french kiss. Their innocent little kiss turns into much more ...both getting way more than they bargained for when the game began. Of course she has no idea that he is a vampire and when she finds out, her blissful week long sexcapade turns into a nightmare.
I wouldn't go so far as to classify this as erotic, put it is pretty far up there on the hotness scale.

This was basically two hundred pages of trashy sex scenes. There was little to no plot and the writing was amateurish with plenty of editorial errors. It's a vampire meets relucant human, blah, blah. The initial concept intrigued me (kiss and tell game) but it ended there. It wasn't horrible, but I wouldn't recommend it either. It is the BEST COVER I've ever seen though, very hot!
July 11, 2010
I'm being generous w/ 3 stars. More like 2 1/2. It was a fun, little read, if you don't mind not having a plot, the H/H hooking up within hours of meeting and having endless, mindless wild monkey sex every few pages.
Our "hero" of the book is Seth and he's a very hot and sexy vamp although, he was a bit of a puss.
Willow is his love and is a bit of a flake thru out this book.
Here's the 5 cent version:
Girl plays game at a bar w/ her friends. She has to go up to a guy and ask him if he's wearing boxers or briefs. There's consequences for the answer he gives and she ends up straddling his lap and him gettin her off right then and there.
They go back to his place and for the next week, they have more wild and endless sex and he drinks her blood. (yet she doesn't realize this)THEN............whoa............she finds out he's a vampire and she runs. He realizes that she's his BLOOD MATE and no other blood can satisfy him or nourish him.
She goes back and forth trying to come to terms w/ her feelings and in the meantime, Seth is going to sacrifice himself to the sun because he doesn't want Willow out of pity. He's slowly starving himself.
She comes back to his place, finds out what he's planning on doing, forces him to drink MORE of her blood, more sex and wham bam thank you Willow, will you be my wife? She can be w/ him forever if she drinks his blood once a month or so and she'll never get old, never get sick, yadda..........yadda..................blah........blah........and they live happily ever after. All this in less then 2 weeks. lol
There were only 2 secondary characters, Willow's sis Roxy and Seth's longtime friend and we find out NOTHING about them. Boring! A few of the sex scenes were hot but this book isn't anything to brag about.

This book, the first in a new series called Bloodmates, starts out with that all important question, boxers or briefs?
Willow is having a very bad day. To get her sister to stop harassing her, she agrees to participate in a game, but just once. When a muscular hunk walks past her, she knows she's found the perfect guy to ask her embarrassing question.
Seth is shocked when a gorgeous woman sits on his lap. He's amused when she begins asking him questions. He gets aroused when she kisses him. Taking her home, he "sinks his teeth into her" -- and is addicted. Imagine his surprise when he discovers that she holds his life in her hands.
What's a vampire to do when he realizes that he needs this woman to survive and she runs screaming from him?

Typical paranormal erotica. The characters motivations and decisions didn't make much sense but kept the story moving forward. The smut was good but not great. The conflict was average and the promised HEA was present and accounted for.
I kept feeling like I was thrown into an episode of Buffy after the heroine found out the hero was a vampire. Remember all those names Xander called Angel? Especially fang-boy. Yeah. I couldn't figure out why the heroine started calling her vamp those names. And it seemed like her personality completely changed in the blink of an eye. But still. The story is exactly what I expected it to be, so average rating all around.

Well what can I say? Wow...... That was pretty hot. Ok it's a short novel but by no means does that mean it's lacking because damn it definitely isn't. Well ok before I get too into describing the hot detailed action in this book let me explain the storyline.
This starts off in a pub with a live band and two sisters and a friend having a good night out after one of them, Willow, was fired from her job for not sleeping with her boss..,, yeah justice right? No wonder she needed to let off steam... But well they decided to play a game called "Boxers or Briefs" yes it's just as dirty as it sounds, they choose a "victim" in the bar and guess whether he's a boxers or briefs kind of guy and approach them asking whether they can join them but in joining them are only allowed to sit on their lap, by which point they have to find out if they were right by asking the dreaded question "boxers or briefs" forfeiting if they are wrong or kissing upon the cheek if right....well on this night Willow was pushed and cajoled into playing the game to unwind, she spends a fair amount of time trying to decide a "victim" and is just about to give up when she spots a hot sexy guy walk into the bar, not taking her eyes off him she immediately decides he is definitely her "victim" she takes her guess that he is neither a boxers or briefs kind of guy but a commando and goes to find out......
Needless to say she's correct but it ends up going further than the game and she ends up back at his place having what she can only describe her taste of sex heaven, the night of ravishing just isn't enough for either of them and they end up completely sexually inseparable for a week enjoying each other in completely detailed and hot sex scenes you can taste the sexual tension oozing throughout this book..... Until she discovers she's been more of a snack than a lover.... Then it gets too much and she panics and runs they both experience some obstacles and discover some truths they didn't realise existed and then well they have a big showdown and..... Well that's the point of reading the book isn't it?
I can safely say this has definitely enticed me into reading the rest of this series, not just because of the hot scenes because WOAH I need water!...... but because if the storyline too. So often a book focuses on the sex and gets completely overtaken by the sex that it just turns into porn and the storyline forgotten, but this book isn't one of them, it has equal amounts of sex and storyline so definitely makes it much more enjoyable than that dirty porn website you visit on a cold night.

There just wasn't much to this one. Depressed after being fired by her sexist boss, Willow has a "night on the town" with her wild big sister and is dared into flirting with a random guy. She haplessly picks Seth, a vampire, and the two of are so attracted to each other that she goes home with him. It turns out that they're mates (although this isn't stressed as heavily as it is in other similar paranormals), which means he can't feed from anyone else. However, even though they have good chemistry, Willow is terrified when she finds out he's a vampire and has trouble accepting his nature, while he rapidly becomes resentful of her unfair and judgmental attitude.
I really like romance novels that have a lot of background for the characters, including bad experiences they have to work through, insecurities they need to reassure one another about, etc. I also like romance novels to have some subplot, like some villain in the background who towards the end of the novel becomes impossible to ignore. This book was basically just sex with a couple of arguments. Neither Seth nor Willow was all that interesting; they were pretty ordinary adults with a somewhat unique problem that they handled kind of immaturely. Willow in particular, resenting him for not asking before he drank her blood, seemed totally ridiculous to me. I'm not critical of her for not wanting to be with a vampire or anything, but being angry because he drank without asking seemed so ridiculous. I also found the sex scenes too long and boring. But in all fairness, I'm not really into those scenes unless they've got a lot of dialogue and interesting inner monologue.

Just needing a break from everything that is going wrong Willow goes out with her sister Roxy and her friend Mary. While at the Bar the girls decide to play a gamed. Willow finally caves and agrees to play the game. But since she hates to play she is going to take her time to pick out the man she wants.
In walks Seth.
Seth is there at the bar to do some business when Willow strolls over and asks 3 questions. At the end of those questions she gracefully slides onto his lap..
From there she spends a week in his bed. After that week Willow finds out what Seth really is.
She is horrified to realize that Seth bit her, then she starts worry that there might be more to Seth and her than what she really thought.
After another week away from Seth she finally approaches him again to discover that he is sick and learns only she can cure his needs.
After she gets him better Seth orders he out of his life becuase he figures out what exactly Willow means in his life.
Since Seth kicked her out Willow realizes that there is more to Seth then just his Darkside, there is a man in there that she fell in love with.
Also the sex scenes were HOT....
Overall I would have to say that this story was an easy read for a cloudy Saturday afternoon. I enjoyed the characters and what they brought to the story. I also thought it was well written.
I can not wait to read the second book (Bloodmates,2)

This is a short sexy read. Kiss and Tell is a very steamy erotica about a girl who picks up a vampire at a bar one night while playing a game with her girlfriends. It’s slightly predictable. I found it a bit aggravating in the fact that as soon as Willow finds out the Seth is a vampire she flees. Then she does a crazy bounce in and out his life while she comes to terms with what Seth is. She is fine with who he is, which is a strange man she meet in a bar and went straight to his bed for a week’s worth of the best sex she has ever had. If you’re looking for a short read full of hot steamy sex with a good storyline and nothing dark and sinister while still reading paranormal this is a good read.
I will definitely read more from this author. I enjoy finding a tastefully smutty erotic book. I did find that with Kiss and Tell. I looked on the author’s website about more information on this series. She does state that the site is undergoing some construction and upgrades. I did not see any information on other or future books in the series. The readers were not introduced to other vampires in this book that could potentially find or seek their Bloodmates.

Okay Just finished this one today. I started it last night. Although this one was a short one, it was a really good read. I feared it would be to shallow, but I was pleasantly surprised. The chemistry between Seth and Willow was great, and I loved how they were able to get to the point of Seth's history and the history of his kind without it seeming rushed or too "simple" Plus I love how Willow reacted when finding out what Seth was. I mean she reacted the way any normal woman would and her struggle with her decision of "what to do" was realistic.
So if you want a hot and not crude, quick vampire love story with a bit of bite and alot of heart, then this one is for you. I'm excited to read the others in this series as well.

Caution! As you start reading this book you many have to put your oven mitts on, or take a cold shower;) its so hot! This book is loaded with sizzling HOT SEX! form begging to end.
Seth is a vampire, he is not a alpha like you read about in most of these books, but he is very lovable and hot.
Willow is having a bad week, so why not go have hot sex with an unknowing vampire, especially one who looks like Seth. But when she finds out he has been taking her blood with out her knowing what will she do?……
This book is more sex than storyline but it’s a very good quick read and HOT! I really enjoyed it. There is room for more books hope to see them soon….

Willow is down and out after getting fired for refusing to have sex with her boss. She goes out with her sister and friend. She plays a game that she swears she'll only play once. I have a major problem with that game but whatever. I guess some women really do play those games.
The story is centers around sex....sex....sex....but that's all there really is, there is no plot to it. Don't get me wrong I like sex in my story but I also like some plot with my story lol

Bonus points for one of the Hottest Book Covers Ever!
Seth is a vampire who can bite me ANY DAY. He's up there with Wrath & Z on the manly sexiness scale in my book!
While not too complex or deep, this is an enjoyable light read. Very sexy. Will read more by this author!

Another book I first read over a decade ago and just reread.
I’ve always enjoyed this book - the storytelling is very good and the lore is interesting. But… it always feels like something is missing. Not sure what, maybe I want the author to expand on some of the subplots she throws in there, I’m just not sure.
It doesn’t distract from my enjoyment, but does make me feel like I’m missing something.

This was a typical man and woman meet in a bar, have a mind-blowing one night stand, then fall in love type story, only it turns out the man is a vampire, and that freaks the girl out. For a romance, it was pretty well written.
February 27, 2018
Well-- this is EXTREMELY fast paced. Within the first couple of chapters they were getting it on and he was obsessed with Willow. It was an entertaining book but definitely fast paced...

eh. with a lot more editing it could've been a better read.

Kind of soft in my opinion but I like darker romance. Almost nothing but smut, it was great

very sexy vampire book
July 10, 2012
Girl goes to a bar with her girlfriends, they get tipsy and decide to play a game with men the way men always play their games with women. Uh oh, sounds like a scorned woman came up with that idea. Willow is the chosen one this time around because she's had a horrible day – she got fired after her boss propositioned her, she turned him down, complained about it to the upper ranks and they didn't believe her. Anyway, the game goes like this, pick a guy, then ask him three questions:
#1 – Make sure he's single and/or not gay
#2 – Gain his permission to join him, and if he says yes, sit in his lap
#3 – Never tell a guy about the game you're playing and never apologize for it
I can already tell that I won't like the heroine because one minute she wants to devour her handsome stranger, and the next minute she's thinking "I can't believe I let them talk me into this". Last time I checked a thing called free will still exists. Saying "no" to your scary BFF's must break some sort of girl code. Anyway, Willow is very successful with her "target", sorry, Seth, and he gives her an orgasm right then and there. Then she goes home with him to hopefully continue on the high she's on. They have more sex, without protection I might add. There are a lot of sexy times for those two and Seth is feeling both protective and possessive of her though he doesn't know why. Could it be because he's a vampire?
A week later and she's practically living with him. She has her own bathroom space, closet space and drawer space. She talks to her freaked out sister once in a while, you know, to "touch base" with her. Poor Willow still doesn't know what Seth is, but when she finds out, she does what seldom a heroine in a sexy vamp novel has done before – she runs for the hills or her apartment, whichever happens to be the first thing she comes upon. She can avoid him in the flesh, but not her dreams. What does she do? Drowns herself in coffee to keep from sleeping for more than a few hours. Didn't anyone tell her it's easier to avoid a vampire boyfriend than it is to get rid of dark circles? By now Seth is heartbroken. He thought they had something special, special enough to like him for the man, not the vamp with needs. When Willow's sister drags her to the same bar, Seth is also there and they can't avoid "the talk" any longer. Willow doesn't seem to be swayed, at least not until she finds out that Seth is slowly dying because he can only feed from her. You can imagine how the rest of the story plays out.
I'll admit they had amazing chemistry, while they were both in their blissful bubble and consumed by sex. The sex was plentiful and hot, but that wasn't enough to make me overlook Willow's flaws. What did Seth see in her? She's young, good in bed, immature at times and tastes like no other woman he's ever had. All that makes him fall for her?
I've never asked myself this particular question after all the PR romance I've already consumed, but mate-bonding can be a very tricky thing. What happens if a vamp bonds with a twit?
