Publisher's summary

WITH THIS RING, I THEE DEAD.

Just as Jane Jameson’s unlife seems to be stabilizing, fate sinks its fangs firmly into her butt. Despite her near-phobia of wedding planning, her no-frills nighttime nuptials to her sexy boyfriend, Gabriel, are coming along smoothly. That is, until she turns a fatally wounded teenage acquaintance, and the Council pronounces her responsible for the newborn vamp until he can control his thirst.

Jane’s kitchen barely holds enough Faux Type O to satiate the cute teen’s appetite and maintain Gabriel’s jealous streak at a slow simmer. As if keeping her hyperactive childe from sucking the blood out of the entire neighborhood isn’t enough to deal with, the persnickety ghost of Jane’s newly deceased grandma Ruthie has declared war on the fanged residents of River Oaks. Suddenly, choosing monogrammed cocktail napkins and a cake she can’t even eat seem downright relaxing in comparison.

Tensions inside the house are growing… and outside, a sinister force is aiming a stake straight for the center of Gabriel’s heart. Most brides just have to worry about choosing the right dress, but Jane fears that, at this rate, she’ll never make it down the aisle for the wedding all nice girls dream of.

Good Series

Where does Nice Girls Don't Bite Their Neighbors rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Overall I loved this series; it's light, funny, and an airy read. The only thing that I disliked was Jane's lack of a spine. She never stands up for herself and allows herself to be constantly abused (both verbally and physically) by the people around her. It became very nerve grating by the end of the series, and I all I wanted to see was her standing up for herself and not allowing people to walk all over her constantly. She's a freaking vampire for goodness sake!

Loved it! Can't wait for the next book..I hope.

Amanda knows how to bring all the emotions to the story with each character - it is like watching a movie in my head.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It made me laugh

Any additional comments?

I would love to read more novels set in this background. I very much enjoyed the novella Driving Mr Dead.I loved Jane and her dysfunctional family but next time I want them to be background characters. I would hate their lives to be sufficiently upheaved to be the focus of another novel.Amanda Ronconi is the perfect narrator, with her warm Southern drawl and Molly Harper spins a lively yarn; witty, biting and charming

Molly Harper is a winner again.

Ms Harper always writes a great and funny story. I laugh out loud at her clever riposts. I have never "heard" a better writer. I even have listened to her books through a second time as i have enjoyed them so much. Amanda Ronconi is the voice of her books and she does it beautifully. I look forward to her next and then the next. I am a fan, thank you both for you hard work and enjoyable stories and narrative.
