Love Bite is a wonderfully different story for the vampire genre. I love that Kay Glass makes the main character a "real" woman who's dealt with weight issues and infertility. Sometimes, when a character is too perfect I find myself irritated by them instead of strongly relating to them. This was not the case here.Diandra is your average woman in her late twenties, who's just realized she and her husband of nine years have finally conceived. That good news is shattered by the sudden death of her husband Jonah. Enter Lizbeth, the homeless woman who discovers Jonah's body and also happens to be a former cop. As the two get to know each other and Diandra helps Lizbeth get back on her feet, they form a special friendship.Things are starting to look up for Diandra as she carries the baby and falls in love with Lizbeth. Only one problem, her very jealous, supposedly dead husband shows up at the house and lashes out at his wife in jealousy of her new lover. After the attack she's got a load of other problems to deal with..a new baby, blood bags, fangs, and a suave new shape-shifting vampire of a mentor named Eamon. Let the fun begin!I really enjoyed this book. The author does a wonderful job creating an engrossing story line and cultivating the relationship between Diandra and Lizbeth. She uses just the right amount of humor in her writing, and the result is an entertaining escape that reading a book should always be. I'm anxious to start the next book in the series to see what the future holds for these characters.
