This story had me right from the beginning. I loved the
hero Bastien and Terry was a great heroine as well. It was
nice to see that even as grumpy as he comes off Bastien is
caring and thoughtful while Terry is a smart and strong
woman.
Terry is in town for her cousin Kate's wedding. Kate has
talked Bastien into letting Terry stay at his house while
she is in town. When Kate is called out of town Bastien
tries to entertain Terry. As the two go around the town
they find themselves attracted to one another. Although
both Terry and Bastien each have their own problems and
baggage to deal with they find themselves enjoying their
time together and falling in love. I really enjoyed the
interaction that goes on between these two as they try and
get over their pasts.
Terry has already become a young widow and when she sees
the tell tale signs of sickness at Bastien's, she must
decide just where her heart lays. Having been hurt before
Bastien is not ready to be rejected again yet Terry pulls
at him like no other. The love that develops between
Bastien and Terry is a wonderful read. With one mishap
after another it seems fate is determined to have these two
together.
This book is number four in the Argeneau vampire series by
Lynsay sands. I love all of the books in this series and
this one was no different. This book moves a little slower
than the other books in this series but in my opinion that
does not hurt it in anyway. I love the humor and writing
style of this author and am eagerly awaiting the next in
this series. TALL DARK AND HUNGRY has the reader laughing
out loud and enjoying a sweet romantic read.
Terri had flown from England to help plan her cousin's wedding, but paying for a New York hotel room was like giving blood! She had an alternative: the new in-laws were offering lodging. Of course, the Argeneaus were a certifiably odd bunch. There was the sometimes chipper, sometimes brooding Lucern— a "vampire romance" writer. There was the wacky stage actor, Vincent. She couldn't imagine Broadway casting a more ravenous singing-and-dancing Dracula. And then there was Bastien. Of this unique cast of characters, he seemed the tallest, darkest and hungriest—and his effect on Terri was decidedly delicious. Just looking into his eyes made her want to serve up her innocence on a silver platter. And she had a feeling the love feast was about to begin.
