My Review:

Michael Wyndham the pack leader asks his cousin Rachael Velvela an accountant to move to St. Paul from Cape Cod to watch over Betsy the Vampire Queen she can't say no.  She's isn't happy though!

When she gets to St. Paul she meets up with another werewolf who works at The Chamber of Commerce who gives her a client list and shown where she is suppose to live.  She starts settling in and loves her new apartment.

Edward the human geek lives with a vampire and a vampire Slayer Greg and Boo (aka Ghost). He doesn't leave the apartment because he's afraid they won't want him back.  He reads Betsy's monthly newsletter and is shocked about it so he decides to scope out the mansion.

While at the Barnes and Noble he bumps into Rachael and there is instant attraction which leads into a whirlwind passionate affair.  Then Edward catches Rachael entering the vampire mansion he confronts her and they get into it.  When a series of murders occur with the people on Rachael's client list both Rachael and Betsy figure out something fishy is going on.  They both decide to work together to flush out the murderer.

Wow the romance between Rachael and Edward was really hot and heavy with humorous moments.  I didn't really feel for these two characters because Rachael was a little too prickly and sarcastic for me and Edward was too much of a wimp.

3/5
