I enjoyed this third installment of the Tennessee Waltz series.  You don't necessarily have to read the first two books in the series, Kiss Me I'm Irish and Kiss Me I'm Yours, but they do fill in some holes with the storyline; particularly towards the end of the story.Unlike another reviewer, I didn't not exactly see Morgan as a "bit** in the beginning of the book.  I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt as she came with "baggage" from her childhood and being in foster care.  However, I was a bit disappointed that this baggage and her background didn't really end up explaining her negative attitude towards people and made her a bit more unlikeable.I thought it was interesting the way you didn't really know who would be friend of foe as the story unfolded and it made you want to turn the page.  All of the guys are kinda suspect, so it certainly kept me guessing for a little while as to who were the "good guys" and who were not.The introduction of vampires was a little left-field and I thought that their inclusion needed to be developed more or left out entirely.I had hoped that the storylines from books one and two would have been continued a bit more.  There was such a buildup after book 2 and I was a bit disappointed that those characters only made brief appearances.  What I found so enjoyable in the first two books was the whole time travel issue and someone acclimating to a different life in a different time.  This one didn't involve time travel, but was more of a "good" versus "evil" theme.  Yes, it was darker in some respect and unlike the first two, there was very little in terms of romance between the main characters.  Rather than a romance, this read more as a personal quest theme, centering on Morgan trying to find herself and where she belongs.  The other characters were largely secondary and basically there to help or hinder her quest.As another reviewer noted, I too was disappointed in Pinky/Tinker's behavior.  She did some things that were self-centered and led to heartache for more than one person.  She was cast out of her realm due to it and in the end, she really had no remorse over it.  She reminded me a little of a spoiled childlike imp that isn't really bad, but certainly isn't really good.  She likes to stay in more of a "gray" area and will continue to cause havoc in the lives of others if she feels like it.  She's a character you certainly wouldn't want to become involved with, that's for sure!Overall, this was a very entertaining series and I'm glad I found this author.Disclaimer:  I contacted Ms. Street after reading Kiss Me I'm Yours (Book 2) and volunteered to review Book 3 when she completed it.  She gifted me with a copy, but this is my honest review and was not influenced in any way by the author.
