The PremiseNick Christos is a vampire who has become friends with his neighbor Casey, a young woman who has no idea what he is, but thinks he could never be in love with a girl like her.  He asks Casey to accompany him to a benefit, and she gets unwittingly gets deeply embroiled in his world.The GoodHavens is a decent writer, and I enjoyed the chemistry between Nick and Casey.  It was lighthearted and humorous, which I always appreciate in a romance novel, ven the vampire ones since they tend to be a bit serious, so I really looked forward to an easy read, and I wasn’t disappointed.I think that I would read a sequel that had to do with their friend, Linc.  The world building was enough that I didn’t feel overwhelmed with information, and intrigued me enough that I would want to find out more in future books, if Ms. Havens writes more.  It was open ended enough that I can easily see there being more to come, but thankfully it wasn’t treated as a cliffhanger, but as a standalone book.The Not-So-GoodMy main complaint was the insecurity in both the H/h, which was excessive and unattractive, considering how others viewed them.  Her insecurity stem from some serious body issues, which based on what I read, seemed unwarranted.  Nick’s insecurities were also based on her accepting what he is.  All in all, I spent a good amount of time just wanting to slap them both upside the head.The Bottom LineLight, breezy read which I enjoyed and would recommend, as long as you can deal with the H/h’s neurotic tendencies.
