Book 16 of 2009: Stakes & Stilettos by Michelle Rowen


Michelle Rowen brings Sarah Dearly back for her fourth book in the Immortality Bites series. Dearly has recently been turned into a vampire and has just started adjusting to things when she stumbles into a witch, Stacy, with a grudge. Stacy decides to make Dearly's adjustment period a bit more complex by placing a curse on her that turns her into a bloodthirsty nightwalker instead of the sweet vampire that was able to drink from the carton rather than the neck. Sarah has to race against the clock to find a way to make Stacy reverse the curse before it becomes permanent and Sarah is stuck as a nightwalker forever. Along the way she looks for assistance from her best friend, George, her boyfriend, Thierry, and the Red Devil, a masked stranger who saved her from getting staked. As she seeks a solution to the problem of her curse, Sarah is also trying to figure out who the Red Devil is, and if he's for real. In the midst of it all, she’s trying to figure out how to get Thierry to marry her, despite the fact he's already married. If anyone can handle it, Sarah can!

Stakes and Stilettos is yet another fun read in the Immortality Bites series. This series has been fun from the start and Rowen has kept it interesting all the way through. The more I read this series the more I find myself getting deeply involved with the lives of the characters. They all have unique personalities and are very likable, despite the wicked personalities of some (i.e. Thierry's wife, Veronique). I really have nothing negative to say about this book other than it left off with a major cliffhanger which made me want the next book immediately! I had a great time reading this book and will continue to read this series and anything else Rowen puts out. I think all fans of the paranormal romance genre would enjoy this series. Highly recommended.

Contains: Mild Sexual Situations
