Publisher's summary

"Marry the devil...or die." That's the ultimatum Belle Harrison, vampire slayer, just received from a demon. Belle has only one response: To hell with him.

Turns out it's not that easy, though - apparently the devil doesn't know the meaning of the word no. Lucky for Belle, three pantie-melting vampires come to her aid. Three hot vampires she can't resist. Hey, we all have our vices. Hers just happen to have fangs.

She's going to need these three to help her thwart the devil's marriage proposal and defeat the terrifying dark force that wants her dead.

Excellent Plot

She’s a vampire slayer yet vampires are helping her against the devil. This is really an interesting story. The plot was well-thought of. Belle’s character is strong and amazing!

1. Pleasing Story

This audio has a pleasing story that focuses on Belle, a vampire slayer, who said no to a wedding proposal from a devil. Three handsome vampires come to the rescue but will Belle’s heart soften for one of these blood sucking animals? A must listen to.

Good story

I am a die hard vampire book nut so I really enjoyed this story. It is awesome that the slayer found love with who she found it with (don’t want to give anything away)!

Great Story

I absolutely loved this story. The narrator does an amazing job of pulling the listener into the story. The author wrote a great story that leaves the listener constantly wondering what will happen next. The story is funny, sexy, and full of excitement. I can't wait to listen and read the next book in the series to find out what happens next!

Not normally a genre I would listen too

This was a good audio book not normally one I would listen to because vampires aren't my thing but I actually really liked this one, a little slow to get into but then you kinda become invested in the story and want to know what happens so good book :)

Enjoyable

I really wished that Belle’s relationship with the vampires levelled up but then everything is just so enjoyable to listen to. Belle has such strong personality. I mean, she’s the only one protecting humanity. Great audio!

A Paranormal Romance

The devil wants Belle, the slayer, to be his bride. This story is amazing and is entertaining. I like the twists and turns. The characters were all important and likeable.

HOT AND SWEET AS APPLE PIE

VAMPIRES DON’T GIVE HICKEYS is the first book in the Slayer’s Reverse Harem series. They will need to be read in the order of release.

Anytime someone says “slayer,” we all immediately compare to Buffy. There is no comparison. There is no Angel, Spike, or any of the rest of the Scooby gang. Instead, there are three hot, hunky, undead men who are devoted to Belle before she is introduced to them. Eddie, Jacek, and Sawyer are Belle’s harem of hotties and each is uniquely able to help Belle in her duties as the slayer and to grow as a person.

I like that it was a short story, but not rushed. I loved that there were touches of humor to keep it being as dark as the graveyard. Finally, one of the main things that I like is that the story (and Belle) didn’t immediately fall into a foursome. Instead, she – and we – gets to know all three of the new men in her life as individuals and as more than just their fangs.

This is the first I have read from this author, but I would love to read her other series. I’ll be diving into book two of this series this week!

Narration: I think I’ve found a new favorite! She does a beautiful job of creating a scene in the mind whether it is suspense, lust, humor, intensity, or anything in between.

Note: While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.

Great story, great narration!

I loved this book!! Belle was funny and sassy. There was only part that threw me off. I don’t want to put in review because I hate when people give things away. I was seriously saying to myself that there was no way it was believable. Yes, I’m aware this is a vampire book. Lol!
I would definitely recommend this book and can’t wait to read the next one!

Great quick read

I normally don’t read/listen to vampire books but I decided to give this book a try purely because I liked the title. The narrator, Melissa Schwairy, was great, easy to listen to and a nice voice. Holly Ryan did an amazing job at describing the surroundings and emotions if Belle. I loved her snarky side. The three vampires were all uniquely different but you will easily fall in love with all of them
