3 1/2 stars."My Vampire Cover Model" by Karyn Gerard is an entertaining light paranormal romance novella with two unconventional characters. Burney Sheridan (known as Burn) is a vampire who is temporarily posing as a cover model but never expects that his true mate Deanna Brooks (Dean) will appear at one of the author's signing sessions for the books that he appears on. Unfortunately, the path to true love requires that each partner accepts the other unconditionally and that is not necessarily the case here even though they are extremely compatible in the bedroom. The premise is good and the vampire's sexy Irish lilt is alluring but the characters were a bit two-dimensional and the resolution abrupt and unsatisfying for me. I was disconcerted by the female character's nickname and I thought the vampire's name a bit ironic considering that other vampire lore I have read indicates that fire is something to be avoided. I think that the limitations of the brevity of this story handicap the development of the plot which has great potential and I hope that the characters are revisited in a longer incarnation.
