Dead Sexy Kimberly Raye 9780373793624 Books Reviews
Nikki has spent her whole life in small town Skull Creek try to live down her wild mama's reputation and to live up to her staid Aunt's pristine expectations. And just where has that gotten her? Jilted by yet another loser, well at least this one didn't take her lingerie and stiletto's with him when he left. Now she's 30 and brimming with sexual frustration, 'til Jake, gorgeous-stranger-just-passing-through-town, sweeps her into the most amazing night of her life, her first one night stand - though there was not much standing involved.
Some awesome passion with no strings with a hunky guy that would be gone in the morning sounded like the answer to Nikki's prayers. But in a small town nothing is ever that easy. Everybody knows your business, and since everyone knows what a 'good girl' Nikki is, by noon the next day the whole town thinks that Nikki's getting married. Since Jake is gone, Nikki figures she'll just fib about a long distance relationship until the whole thing blows over. Just one problem - Jake isn't gone and he's planning on being in town for a whole week.
Breaking his one night only rule, Jake is quick to offer to help Nikki out with her little problem. He'll be her fiancé for a week in exchange for more sizzling sex. But Jake is more than he appears, Jake is a vampire. Only Jake doesn't just feed on blood, Jake feeds on sexual energy. And in that department Nikki was way more that a tasty snack, her passion really packs a punch. Jake figures a week with Nikki and his batteries will be fully charged. And Jake needs all the power he can get - he's preparing to face down his maker in a battle to regain his humanity and only one vamp will walk away from that confrontation.
I loved this story. Nikki was sweet and sexy, with her mom and Aunt pulling her from both directions, and trying so hard to please them. Nikki doesn't trust herself to know that her happiness lies somewhere between the two extremes until Jake helps her discover that being just a little bit `bad' can be so very good. Jake was intensely sexual but appealingly vulnerable, considerate and supportive, as for the first time in his long life he allows Nikke to get close enough that he's caught and then discovers that he wants to set himself apart from all the losers in Nikki's life and have her remember him as more than just another mistake. The romance between Nikki and Jake was very well done, and very steamy. Since this is a Blaze it pushes the sensuality to a pretty high level but not at the expense of the romance. If you've read Kimberly's Dead and Dateless series you will be pleasantly surprised to find no chicklit-y first person narrative here, we get to peek into both characters thoughts. Getting to see the effect that Nikki and Jake have on each other makes the interactions between them so much more satisfying.
This is the first of a series set in Skull Creek, I don't know about the next one, but I am looking forward to the one after that because there was an intriguing setup for Dillion's story. I am hoping we'll see more of Garret too.
Oh, I liked this one. But then again when you've got an uber-sexy, motorcycle riding, tortured, cowboy vampire on the hunt what's not to like? All my boxes have just been ticked. Throw in a well written story, relatable and funny heroine, scorching hot love scenes, some tender dialogue and an awesome cast of eccentric secondary characters and you've got yourself a winner.
Nikki Braxton has given up hope on ever finding a man without issues in her hometown of Skull Creek (the last one stole her underwear and stilettos before he left) However she doesn't want to get a reputation like her wild and wanton Mamma either and in a town this size everybody knows your business. This leaves Nikki in a state of permanent sexual frustration, getting her highs from cotton candy, baked goods and perm solution. That is until the night Jake McCann rolls into town. This delicious cowboy is just passing through and could be the perfect solution to her little problem; a one night, no strings attached, orgasmic roll in the hay without any of the towns wagging tongues the wiser.
For Jake the down and dirty he's just had with Nikki is about more than just sex. He's a vampire on a mission, a mission that after decades has led him to Skull Creek and his nemesis that turned him. For Jake to be able to destroy his enemy though he's going to need his batteries fully charged and this is where Nikki comes in. You see Jake doesn't just feed on blood he feeds on sexual energy and Nikki's got a ton to spare, so much so that one night with her simply isn't going to be enough.
I was very curious about the idea of a cowboy vampire and thought this is either going to be really silly or super sexy. Luckily Jake (and all the characters) have been written in such multi-faceted ways that the idea works, big time. Giving you everything you could possibly want in a quickie Harlequin romance and then some. Jake is a fantastic character; self assured, intensely sexual and driven yet also vulnerable and lonely without even knowing it. Yup I fell hard for this Cowboy. Nikki is also great, completely down to earth and fun to be around. Their romance takes some surprising turns and for as steamy as it gets it was also very sweet. I will definitely be searching out more from Kimberly Raye and can't wait to read the rest of her Scull Creek series, she made this small town and its cast of characters come alive. Cheers!
Love anything by Kimberly Raye. Do I need to say more?
I love this book and this series.
In "Dead Sexy", author Kimberly Raye begin a new vampire series. As paranormal stories seem to be all the rage today to stand out authors have to not only be good writers but find a new twist. Raye does this by giving it a cowboy slant. Jake and Nikki, the main characters are lively, interesting and couple together very nicely. Raye neatly weaves her other characters into the story making them prime for leads in subsequent books. The ending was unexpected and tantalizing leaving me looking forward to the next in this scrumptious and sensual Texan vampire series. Look for "Tex
Appeal" coming out in February, 2008. Enjoy
I've read many, many vampire romance, mystery and horror books. This one was enjoyable but nothing too different. Worth a lazy afternoon guilty pleasure though for sure.
