Narrated by: Sarah Pavelec

Length: 1 hr and 34 mins

Publisher's Summary

Dani Malloye hates the holidays, and with good reason. Though her best friend tries to force the Christmas spirit on her with giant Santas and elves that light up, she'd rather spend her time doing what she does best - enforcing paranormal law on the streets of Chicago.

Nothing like a little evil bloodshed to lighten the mood. Besides, work means she can spend time with her sexy boss, Cornell Sutton. Too bad Cornell is uptight, her new neighbor, and a vampire. Everyone knows slayers and vampires just don't mix. Or do they?

Short, Steamy, and so much fun!

This is such a fun book with a wonderful narration that adds so much to the book. I loved how the narrator was able to perform distinguishable voices for each of the characters, and I loved her Scottish accent. Dani and Cornell are the main characters in this book. She is a demon slayer while he is a vampire. The imagery in the book was really good to like describing the hellhound as an irish wolfhound with glowing red eyes. They are not lap dogs, yet this one wanted on Dani's lap. This is the most steamy short paranormal book that I have listened to. I loved how Cornell had loved Dani from afar and wanted the choice to be her's when she was ready for a relationship. Typically I have not listened to many paranormal books, but I definitely will continue with this author, the series, and the narrator.

Poor storytelling

Too much porn not enough romance. Narration started like a documentary. The story seemed rushed and disjointed.

Wow! No Pg13 holiday here

Quick read...
Definitely not a pg or pg13 romance.
Love the slayer in love with the vamp erotica though.

There is a Santa, Dani

Slayer, Dani, hates Christmas. However, she loves her bestie who is a crazy during the holidays. How can she dampen her friend's spirits even when she goes way overboard with the decorations and displays? Not only is she dealing with the holiday, her boss lives next door. Her hot hunky Vampire boss. Slayer/Vamp hmmm?
Since they are on the same side can they be more?

This is a fun short read with everything included with a big book.

Awful

I cannot begin to express how awful this book is.

first, forget about the description. The premise sounds good but there is nothing to do with a storyline. The book synopsis... let's be in the snow with two girls talking about 4 letter words and carrots on snowmen. now let's have guys in rich mansion talk about wanting to do the girls. Go out and talk to girls and fall in snow and grind body parts. now let's have a fantasy orgasm on couch. sex. mated. the end.

I kid you not, that was how the book was written and entire storylines.

I am returning it. It was seriously awful.

Fun Holiday Short

This story is packed with laugh out loud moments and a sexy scene only a vampire could manage to pull off. If you are looking for a quick, lighthearted holiday PNR with an HEA, give this a try. I’m still grinning and looking forward to the next one. I’d love to see more expanded novels in this series as well. Mandy M. Roth is on my auto-buy list!

Narrator fun, story nice

I am not familiar with this series so I am coming in with a disadvantage on knowing how big a change this will or won’t be to the characters, but it is clear these two are meant to be together. There are a few funny lines I had to stop and share. I might try more of the series. Just not sure it is enough to make me want to get involved in a “fighting bad demons/vampires” series.

Narrator did a fun job.

Love the BPI Series!

I love Mandy Roth and here writing is proof in the pudding. I really enjoyed this series!

more like porn

the idea of this story was cute but the story kept coming back to sex and the idea of it,

Horrible

I couldn't get past the second chapter. Usually like this type of book.. too trashy.

What the blurb doesn't tell you

Nausiating tale of a woman who is magically raped by her vampire boss who has been obsessing over, and stalking her for years. At which point she is so turned-on that she throws herself at him and willingly bonds herself to him for eternity.

It is basically overblown, overwritten, and overdescribed vampire rape-fantasy porn. If that's your thing, this is definately the short story for you.

If not, best skip it. I certainly can't recommend it
