Abandoned Long Haul by Tanya Chris. ⭐️

Finished reading How to Keep an Author (Alive) by AJ Sherwood. I really liked this story, but compared to the last couple of books I’ve read, it just wasn’t SENSATIONAL. ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

I'm going to review this after each one i read..First..

How To Keep An Author (Alive) Aj Sherwood..Even though it's a short read I loved Justus and Cooper....Adorably sweet 4*

Long Haul by Tanya Chris...

Call My Number Megs Pritchard Misspelled prostate (prostrate), that really says everything that needs saying about this story. Started as erotica that became badly done romance that made no sense.

Fangs for the Memories Sadie Jay, cute, needed a little more development. Not sure it would be that easy to forgive a staking. Then again I'm not going to live forever. I would read more about this world and the characters.

Off the Menu R.J. Sorrento this was awful, the whiplash from the characters reactions was ridiculous. Within the same paragraph they'd go from hating each other to liking each other and back. I skimmed a lot because I really didn't like it at all, I should have stopped reading it TBH. Lots of ridiculous reactions and attitudes.

Dial-A-Vamp Roberta Blablanski, a neat idea that didn't work well. It was too short and super open ended. I didn't feel any connection between the characters and I never felt like I really got to know Wyatt even though we were only in his head. First time reading this author, I don't think I'd seek out more based on this.

Overexposed K. Evan Coles the longest story and probably the most developed as well. I didn't understand why Noah was hiding his vampire status from Danny. I couldn't stop thinking of Danny Kaye because of the character's name. I liked them together, but I would have liked more of them together and less of the rest of the story, but it sounds like maybe Coles is going to make this part of a series, I'm here for that.

Long Haul Tanya Chris it was okay, but too short. It felt like the introduction to a longer story, which is fine, but I prefer short stories to feel complete within themselves and this doesn't.

Really enjoying the 3rd story, Overexposed by K. Evan Coles.

How to Keep an Author (Alive) AJ Sherwood, I really enjoyed this! I've not read this author before, but I will definitely check out some of their other books, and I would definitely read more of these characters. It was sweet, fun, and perfect as a short story. I really enjoyed both the characters and I liked the representation too.
