Review: I wanted so desperately to like this series, but unfortunately it just wasn't meant to be.

First, I would like to say that I purchased the Vampire Love Story as well as the Werewolf Love Story Box sets and have finished reading both. Secondly, I would like to say that this review is not meant to offend any fans of these series.I have read several series in this genre and have so far enjoyed all of them. I was suggested this series by Amazon and quickly read through many of the reviews. It was apparent that most readers enjoyed them and it seemed to fit in perfectly with my interest in fantasy/romance. Sadly, I was only half way through the first book when I realized the series was not at all how I hoped it would be. Despite this initial let down I didn't want to allow myself to give up so quickly. I was hoping beyond hope that somewhere down the line I would fall in love with the characters and become emotionally invested in the story. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I just couldn't get over all the label dropping and repetitive writing. If I had to read the words "Mustang" and "MMA Fighter" one more time, I was going to be sick. Not to mention I was not impressed with the main character, "Tommy". He came off so pompous and arrogant. Two very unlikable characteristic for me. Also, the story line lacks any real substance. Tommy supposedly falls in love with Maya after one date and defeats every enemy (Mani and Carni) with ease. There was no real build up or suspense. I suggest that anyone looking at purchasing this series reads the sample version first. If I would have done that I could have save myself the time, money, and let down of finishing the first three books of each series and being thoroughly disappointed.
