Publisher's summary

Ever since an accident turned her into a knockout vamp, Elvi Black's been catching her z's in a coffin, staying out of the sun, and giving up garlic. She knows there's more to being undead than what she saw in Dracula, but she can't very well ask her mortal friends about proper biting etiquette.

But when her neighbors placed a personal ad for her in the local paper, she never imagined she'd meet Victor Argeneau, a vampire who could have his pick of any woman - dead or alive. Rich, powerful, and drop-dead gorgeous, Victor's the perfect man for a novice neck-biter like Elvi. He's willing to teach her everything he knows, but he'll have to do it fast. Someone's out to put a stake through her new vamp life, and only Victor can keep her safe - and satisfied - for all eternity.

Love in vein: listen to more tales of the Argeneau Vampires.

Interesting bad guys

I still can’t understand how they kissed and made up at the end. Even Lucien. There were way too many life mates in 1 small town to be believable but it tied up a lot of loose ends.

The third reading a charm

I have read this book in hard copy twice. But having it read for me adds another layer to the experience. Just love Lynsay Sands.

Great story, but not a fan of the narrator

I liked the story, but was distracted by the stilted reading. Victorias accents were consistent, and she kept the characters voices consistent, but the general dialog sometimes sounded almost robotic. She has great potential but just needs to loosen up!

Good Not Great

A fun and enjoyable read overall.
Evie and Victor are surrounded by a cast of entertaining characters enlivened by their humorous banter. It's a light easy read lacking any depth which is why I don't feel it's one of Sand's stronger efforts.
The story worked up to a point, but the ending was a letdown for me!

Funny, laugh-out-loud, fun! Narration, not so much

I was excited to listen to this title because it is my favorite in Lynsay Sands’ Argeneau Series. Sadly, the audiobook version did not meet quality standards. Unfortunately, the narrator sounded robotic. In fact, I wonder if some words were pre-recorded and put together for the audiobook in order to save time. I highly recommend reading The Accidental Vampire the traditional way, but do not purchase the audiobook, you will regret it.

Great story

I really enjoyed the storyline, but the narrator was a bit mechanical. I am very much enjoying this series.

the Accidental Vampire

They forgot to put in the last chapter. I'm serious. Chapter twenty-one of the book was left out. It cuts off after chapter twenty and leaves the wrap-up 'un-wrapped'. I had to go to my copy of the book and flip to the back to finish the story because it's not part of the audio book I just bought. (The rest of the book was great but it p!$$ed me off to not get the ending of the book.)
