Synopsis from Goodreads
Grier finally has the one thing she’s always wanted: Boaz Pritchard. Too bad her dream boyfriend is keeping her up nights, just not in a sweaty or fun way. Boaz has dialed down the Southern charm and stopped returning her calls. His job forces him to keep secrets, but his radio silence is cranking up her suspicions. He’s a shameless flirt, but he’s her shameless flirt… right?

Soon an attack on Woolworth House leaves her with bigger problems than he loves me, he loves me not. Vampires are on the prowl, and they aren’t the only predators circling. A new threat has emerged, one with blood rights to Grier. With enemies closing in on all sides, she must choose her allies, and the decision could make or break her… and her heart.

Warning: This book contains a buttload of zombie parakeet poop. Like grab a poncho and thank me later. Watch out, y’all. It’s about to hit the fan. Hearts will break, and heads will roll. Literally.

So much cool stuff. Each book gives a little bit more juice, and it just becomes a little bit more delicious. I am starting to dread discovering that Linus is a closet villain (so far, he is not), but that boy is just a liiiittle bit too perfect. 


And very much adorable. A long, unrequited crush on Grier? Check. Respect, zero mansplaining and willingness to be a damsel in distress from time to time? Check. Attentiveness to detail? Check. Can cook delicious meals and feeds the heroine all the time? Check.

Sooo, there is some heartbreak in this book, peeps. Also, a field trip and an acquisition of more strays/allies. And again, so. much. fun. Good pace, very engaging characters and the world which keeps opening up more and more. I am pretty smitten and looking forward to the next book in the series. Recommended. Read it.

Так много всего хорошего здесь, ребята. С каждой книгой все больше и больше сочных деталей, и они все вкуснее. Я начинаю побаиваться, что Линус обернется клозетным злодеем (пока нет!), а то что-то он слишком идеален. И очень мил.

Долгая тайная влюбленность в Гриер? Есть. Уважение, ноль мужских объяснений и небоязнь играть барышню в поисках помощи время от времени? Есть. Внимание к деталям? Есть. Умение готовить вкусно и быстно для героини? Есть.

А также будьте готовы к разбитым сердцам, выездным приключениям и приобретению новых союзников/помощников. Короче, не книга, а сплошное веселье. Хороший ритм, очень занятные герои и мир, который продолжает все больше раскрываться. Очень мне нравится серия, буду продолжать читать дальше и вам советую.
