Geek. Vampire. Superhero?The Newfoundland Vampire is not like many other vampire stories out there. It's a mystery/horror/romance with action, morality (what happens when a vegetarian is turned? ;) ), and an ex-husband from hell.I really liked Joseph and even know a few people that would have been right there at the geek table with him, lol. Heck, even when he realizes he's being used, he is still the `good guy.'The romance has issues, like dubious consent and that ex I mentioned above. Cassandra is a strong woman at times and goes after what she wants, however, she's a bit manipulative but . . . she's still a great heroine. And John, the ex? Oh, he makes a wonderfully psychotic villain.There are lots of questions left still at the end but I'm assuming those are left for book two to deal with. As someone who both loves and writes vampire stories, I was curious and am now excited about this series!A flawed hero, a great premise, and it left me wanting more. I eagerly await to next in this new and intriguing series!I recieved a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
