Rating: 4 out of 5

I received a copy of this book from Entangled Publishing in exchange of an honest review!A fun light read!With her sister's wedding on the horizon Alice Shepard badly needs a date and not just any date, but one handsome enough to stick it to her ex-husband and hopefully in the shape of her sexy neighbor Noah Thorpe. With enough appletinis running through her, Alice daringly asks Noah to join her on the cruise for her sister's wedding.Spending a week on a ship with humans and next to Alice is a bad idea for Noah. But he needs to get out of the city due to his own issues as his friends try to get him out of a bonding with another vampire, and the offer seems enticing.Really enjoyed this one! A lighthearted quick read romance that has left me swooning for Noah and more. It was cute and funny. Especially when Alice accidentally walks in to the room in time to catch a glimpse of Noah drinking out of the shampoo bottle - unaware that it actually holds blood.Fun, sexy, entertaining and I adored the ship setting. It has been a while since I last read a book based on a cruise, and they are only a handful that I stumble into. The attraction between Noah and Alice was apparent and hot, while he was battling his own demons about being a vampire who was also being forced into marriage. Alice comes with her own baggage of hurt due to her sleazeball ex-fiance who ends up being engaged to Alice's best friend. He made me want to punch him for Alice and her best-friend both the way he was behaving on the ship trying to get Alice back while already being engaged to the woman he cheated on her with!The book is filled with exciting supporting characters. I loved her sister Cindy and kind of wished she had her own book. She was funny and really caring, the relationship between her and Alice was really touching.Alice's mother Edna was far the most amusing. A woman who has a thing for younger man and is currently dating one. She is bold and had me laughing several times.I am looking forward to more from this series and author. Especially want to know more about Noah's friends!
