Review: BOOK #2 IN THE KARLI LANE SERIES
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 07 4, 2013
A 3.5 rating is more accurate.  Vampire Warlocks & Exes is a good addition to the Karli Lane series but it was just too short and a bit less satisfying than the first book.  Moreover, this book was filled more with Karli's romantic emotional agnsts and recaps from the first book rather than action but I still enjoyed it.  There are a couple of love scenes that are pretty hot and some profanity that other readers might find offensive but this book was not trashy or sleezy as some claim.  I really like Karli's character, but she does whin a bit too much, and like her I still can't choose between Vance the Warlock or Leo the Vampire.  They are both simply delicious.  Every woman should have such a dilemma.  lol  Although, I suspect that the author will have her end up with Vance, at this point, I'm leaning more in favor of Leo.In this installment, we finally find out why there is so much animosity exist between Vance and Leo.  I don't think this book would make a good stand alone read since it pretty much picks up where the 1st book leaves off.  That said, the author does do a good job of summarizing the important events from the 1st book.  Nonetheless, I think that reading this book will be a more rewarding experience if one reads Book #1 'Pixie Dust' first.My second complaint is that I don't understand why we have to wait over a year for the 3rd book.  Quite frankly, unless one sets an electronic reminder regarding the release of Book 3 in "early 2014", which I did by the way on my cell phone, most people will simply have forgotten the Series and moved on.  Such long delays between books don't seem like a smart marketing strategy.Ms. Lee, Since fans have to wait over a year for the next book, I truly hope that it will better than this one and worth the wait!If your interested in reading a lite paranormal romance with a good helping of humor, spunk and sass then you should give this one a try.
