Liz Baker series #2
Kill Me Next Week
I thought life would get back to normal after I offed Marcus. I wanted adventure, but not the kind that could kill me with the glimmer of an idea. Yeah, he was a god in bed, but what fun would that have been if I never felt my own feelings and thoughts again?
Now I'm surrounded by more monsters. I somehow knew there couldn't be just vampires in the world, but a girl can hope can't she? Oh well, that's not how it works in the real world.
Adele's estate is gorgeous, much bigger than I'm accustomed to, and it turns out to be an excellent headquarters once Cole McIntosh--Wendigo Extraordinaire--shows up and demands my services. Hell, I don't even know how to use the powers I supposedly have and this bastard wants me to reverse a gypsy curse. It's not my problem he's a dumb ass and got himself split in two. I happen to like his better half anyway. He makes a great sandwich!
Now Rick's pissed at me, Chad's looking as smoking hot as ever, and I have a handful of staff, friends, and my new high-class lawyer helping out...but will I be ready when Cole comes knocking at the front gate?

Liz Baker just thought she was going to have a peaceful life after killing the torment of her sexual necessity that came in the form of a very tempting vampire. Little did she know that she would have a brand new adventure just waiting right around the corner when she goes to settle a few loose ends, that came about after the death of a dear friend. I fell head first into book two of the Liz Baker series, finding ‘Kill Me Next Week’ to be even more intriguing, and more engulfed in both sensual pleasure and the very true possibility of impending death...then even book one ‘Time for Death‘. I don’t want to blow this read for those who haven’t eased back into their comfort area with it….but I will tell you that this is a read that you do not want to miss out on! It kept me turning pages through the whole read in one setting, then had me clinching my fist in the grips of wanting more! Christie Silvers does not let her Fan’s get bored, and she has a talent that will keep you coming back.

Kill Me Next Week is the second book in the Liz Baker series by author Christie Silvers. In this installment, Liz takes her hottie bar bouncer Chad with her to Atlanta, to collect her inheritance. Rick, her ex-sort-of-boyfriend whom she used to bang in the cemetery prior to being caught up in the vampire mess, isn't happy that she has left him behind for this trip. Liz is still reeling from the news that she is a Dhampiresa and the fact that she had killed her ex-vampire lover. He still creeps into her thoughts when she least expects it.
Jim, the estate lawyer, takes Liz and Chad to her new inheritance. There, she meets an interesting staff who run the place for her. Randall is a butler with a bad attitude. Identical twins are her maids. Hamish McIntosh is her plump Scottish chef who makes the best meals in the world. Only they aren't really what they seem.
A mystery package arrives, holding a pendant whose magical powers cause Liz and Chad to rush into what they've been fighting against doing. (And fulfills the fantasies of many readers who "met" Chad in the first book!) It was sent to her by Cole McIntosh, who is literally Hamish's other half. Cole needs Liz to have that pendant, supposedly for good, but actually to fulfill some of his evil plans, including being reunited with his better half. Liz is going to need some help to protect herself and essentially the world!
This second installment in the Liz Baker series was another quick and easy read for me. It flowed quite differently than the first book. It felt like it had a lot more background information being given in it. That makes it slightly less enjoyable than the first book, but at the same time a necessary read in order to continue the series. This book also has a much more fictional and supernatural feel to it than the first one. This is again a part of how the series is developing. It does not detract from the experience at all.
Scenes between Liz and Chad continue to be quite steamy, almost more so than anything she ever experienced with Marcus.
Liz continues to be a headstrong, independent woman, but she is softening as she continues to learn more about herself. She also realizes that she needs the help of others in her life and is more willing to accept it. I like her even better this time around.
When Kill Me Next Week ends, it is clear that another story is waiting to come along. Liz still has more to do for herself, for her family and for her friends. I can't wait to read the next installment!

Liz Baker is still her quirky, independent self in this 2nd book of the series. It was a laugh out loud funny, jaw dropping great book! You cannot guess what the next page will bring or whom. Liz goes to Atlanta to see you newly inherited mansion and is elbows deep in trouble. Thank goodness she has her bouncer, Chad, at her side. They're new characters added to the plot in this one that I hope continue with Liz in this series. You find out more about her parents and her family friend, Adele. The imagination of the author shines in this thriller! I gasped quite a bit throughout this read. I can't wait to see what happens next but when I find myself at the last page, I want to scream cause I need/want to know more!

I absolutely loved this book and had a really hard time putting it down. It had an amazing story that kept you enthralled to the very end. I definitely recommend this book, and would give it more stars if it would let me. Christie Silvers is a wonderful author that is able to bring you into her stories, and I now consider myself a lifetime fan.

Christie has done it again for me. She is a master story teller. The plots and twists meld very well in her stories and they leave you wanting more. Can't wait to dive into book three!
