Review: Great writing, no emotional connection

I thought the writing on this book was amazing - it hooked me at the very beginning.  The cover is awful, don't let that distract you.  However I ended up deleting it from my Kindle without finishing it.  There were just a few things that I simply couldn't get past.SPOLERS in my review, I'll do my best to keep at a minimum.First, I felt that the "love" happened FAR too quickly - I didn't buy the feelings at all, there just wasn't enough time for that sort of depth to develop, even if you believe in love at first sight.  Second, Two accepted that she was a vampire far too quickly - I didn't buy that either.  The main problem I had with this book was the lack of emotional depth.  I thought the writing was amazing - gritty, and more explicit in some ways than I normally prefer but as I said, it pulled me in.  I just couldn't get over the fact that the relationship didn't seem real to me.  I wish I could have because I think the direction this writer was going in as far as vampire lore was fascinating.  I'd give him another try in a different series, see if he is able to get the emotional side right, but I can't read anymore of this one.
